Background & Need: The early detection of thoracic diseases and COVID-19 (coronavirus disease) significantly limits propagation and increases therapeutic outcomes. This article focuses on swiftly distinguishing COVID-19 patients with 10 chronic thoracic illnesses from healthy examples. The death rates of COVID-19-confirmed patients are rising due to chronic thoracic illnesses. Method: To identify thoracic illnesses (Consolidation, Tuberculosis, Edema, Fibrosis, Hernia, Mass, Nodule, Plural-thickening, Pneumonia, Healthy) from X-ray images with COVID-19, we provide an ensemble-feature-fusion (FFT) deep learning (DL) model. 14,400 chest X-ray images (CXRI) of COVID-19 and other thoracic illnesses were obtained from five public sources and applied UNet-based data augmentation. High-quality images were intended to be provided under the CXR standard. To provide model parameters and feature extractors, four deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs) with a proprietary CapsNet as the backbone were employed. To generate the ensemble-fusion classifiers, we suggested five additional USweA (Unified Stacking weighted Averaging)-based comparative ensemble models as an alternative to depending solely on the findings of the single base model. Additionally, USweA enhanced the models' performance and reduced the base error-rate. USweA models were knowledgeable of the principles of multiple DL evaluations on distinct labels. Results: The results demonstrated that the feature-fusion strategy performed better than the standalone DL models in terms of overall classification effectiveness. According to study results, Thoracic-Net significantly improves COVID-19 context recognition for thoracic infections. It achieves superior results to existing CNNs, with a 99.75% accuracy, 97.89% precision, 98.69% recall, 98.27% F1-score, shallow 28 CXR zero-one loss, 99.27% ROC-AUC-score, 1.45% error rate, 0.9838 MCC, (0.98001, 0.99076) 95% CI, and 5.708 s to test individual CXR. This suggested USweA m
