Fever and cough may be the first symptom of patients with novel coronavirus pneumonia. Most patients with novel coronavirus pneumonia will have fever and cough, accounting for 98%. However, not all patients with fever and cough are patients with novel coronavirus pneumonia. Clinically, it is necessary to further analyze whether there is a history of novel coronavirus infection, such as whether they have been to an infected area or whether they have a history of exposure. In addition to fever and cough, whether there are other symptoms of novel coronavirus infection such as body aches, fatigue and weakness, and whether respiratory symptoms such as shortness of breath, respiratory distress or even septic shock or coagulation disorders occur after one week. The main criterion for diagnosing novel coronavirus pneumonia is the presence of indications of novel coronavirus testing, or CT chest changes a week after the onset of fever and cough.
