The new coronavirus pneumonia is currently in the epidemic stage, and in the diagnosis of the new coronavirus pneumonia, the first and most important thing is to make sure that there is no relevant epidemiological history. If you have been to Wuhan within 14 days of the onset of the disease, or the corresponding infected area, or have contact with patients with the new coronavirus pneumonia, or there is a gathering of the disease, that is, people in close contact with the surrounding at the same time, then there is a corresponding epidemiological history. After the epidemiologic history, the most important tests for novel coronavirus pneumonia are routine blood tests and chest imaging. In addition to fever, if there is a decrease in lymphocytes in the routine blood tests, and if there is a typical coronavirus infection in the lungs on imaging, then the patient is highly suspected, and is diagnosed as a probable patient according to the appropriate criteria. The final diagnosis of the disease requires a novel coronavirus nucleic acid test for diagnosis. Source: Dr. Yurai
