Can you get a new type of pneumonia without fever?

It is possible to get novel coronavirus pneumonia without fever. Although fever, malaise, and dry cough are the main manifestations of novel coronavirus pneumonia as given in the fifth edition of the latest treatment guidelines, many critically ill patients may have low-grade fever, critically ill patients or even seriously ill patients without obvious symptoms such as fever, and mildly ill patients may also have no fever. At this time, if there is still dry cough, weakness or diarrhea and other related symptoms, dyspnea, etc., a comprehensive diagnostic judgment is needed, including the history of exposure, related infected persons or close contact history, as well as other diagnoses, including routine blood diagnosis, blood biochemistry diagnosis, and some confirmatory tests, including reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction, RT-PCR diagnosis, test gene sequencing, etc. Therefore, it is possible to have novel coronavirus pneumonia without fever, depending on other complementary diagnostic tools.
