Overview
The diagnostic criteria for suspected and confirmed cases of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) are tabulated in the section below.
Diagnostic Study of Choice
Diagnostic Criteria
The diagnostic criteria for suspected and confirmed cases of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is tabulated below:[1][2][3][4][5][6]
Case | Diagnostic Criteria |
---|---|
Suspected Case | Anyone with a history of epidemiology and any two of the clinical manifestations or anyone without epidemiological history and three of the clinical manifestations is considered to be a suspected case:
1) Epidemiological history:
|
Confirmed Case | Any suspected case with one of the following pathogenic features is reclassified as a confirmed case:
|
Ongoing diagnostic Trials
- A researcher at Israel’s Ben-Gurion University of the Negev (BGU) has developed a test that identifies those carrying the COVID-19 virus in less than a minute. And it is both affordable and works with greater than 90% accuracy to boot[7]
Antibody response
- Most recovering from #COVID19 do not have high levels of neutralizing antibodies BUT antibodies to the receptor binding domain (RBD) of the spike protein with potent antiviral activity were found in all individuals tested & may be tx target[8]
- 8 weeks after hospital discharge, 40% of asymptomatic patients have no antibodies, and 12.9% of those who were symptomatic had no #COVID19 antibodies[9]
