The COVID‐19 pandemic has had a global impact, yet limited attention has been given to the comorbid condition of sarcopenia. This paper explores the shared underlying mechanisms between COVID‐19 and sarcopenia and highlights the critical importance of addressing sarcopenia for optimal COVID‐19 patient and survivor outcomes. By implementing comprehensive strategies that encompass screening, nutritional interventions, physical activity promotion, psychological support, and community‐based initiatives, health experts can effectively control sarcopenia and improve overall well‐being in the post‐COVID‐19 era. Additionally, further research is imperative to deepen our understanding of the relationship between COVID‐19 and sarcopenia and to develop evidence‐based management approaches.
