The condition of the patient infected with coronavirus infection may not match the testimony of his tests, said in the program “Sunday night with Vladimir Solovyov” the infectious disease doctor Vladimir Nikiforov. According to him, the doctors are confused because COVID-19 does not fit into the framework of classical epidemiology.
Nikiforov stressed that the results of the tests for an infected patient can testify to his critical condition, however, the person may feel quite well. In addition, pneumonia caused by COVID-19, not visible on x-rays, says the infectious disease.
“We are faced with something new. I would not say that it is terrible, incomprehensible but all — all scared,” said Nikiforov.
Earlier, as reported by Rambler, a Russian journalist Georgiy Kudinov spoke about “oddities” in the treatment of coronavirus.
The publicist admitted to the Italian hospital in Milan said that the poor health in the treatment of coronavirus infection gives way to a sharp improvement like “someone pressed the button.” Italian doctors called this fact a distinguishing characteristic of the disease.
