ABSTRACT

A man in his forties visited our outpatient clinic having had 24 hours of fever, sore throat, and muscle pain. He had no travel history. The use of antipyretics did not improve symptoms, except to reduce the fever to intermittent. Five days later, chest computed tomography (CT) showed peripheral ground-glass opacities in both lungs. We strongly suspected coronavirus infectious disease 2019 (COVID-19). His throat swabs and sputum were submitted to the public health center. The next day, he was diagnosed with COVID-19 and was admitted to another hospital designated for the treatment of infectious diseases.
