We report here a case of a patient hospitalized in December 2019 in our intensive care, of our hospital in the north of Paris, for hemoptysis with no etiological diagnosis and for which RT-PCR was performed retrospectively on the stored respiratory sample which confirmed the diagnosis of COVID-19 infection. Based on this result, it appears that the COVID-19 epidemic started much earlier. 摘要: 一般认为新冠肺炎是从2020年一月在法国开始的。我们这里报道一个在2019年在巴黎北部医院住院的重症患者的病例。因为咳血而无明显病原鉴定,我们对保存的呼吸系统样品进行了反转录多聚酶链式合成实验(RT-PCR)结果证明是新冠病毒感染。这个结果显示新冠肺炎流行开始的时候要早的多。 |
