Concerns about the woman who tested positive for coronavirus – How does Tsiodras explain it? GREECE

The National Health Organization is examining the case of a 31-year-old woman who was hospitalized in late March with symptoms of coronavirus in Evangelismos. She was discharged on April 6 after being negative, but was re-analyzed for 19 days. then.

According to a SKAI report, in fact, the second test by the 31-year-old patient at the “Evangelismos” hospital was positive.

However, during his briefing during yesterday’s briefing on the coronary artery, the Sinology professor Mr. Sotiris Tsiodras was asked about his case.

“In fact, this is a patient who was positive for the presence of the virus and had symptoms, was treated for the virus and left the clinic with a negative test and in a relapse of some symptoms, similar to the virus, a few days later he gave positive”. I asked for controls to be repeated and, in fact, it was documented that the intermediaries were negative and that the recent one was positive. It requires a lot of attention to how one interprets such phenomena because, you know, South Korea has published similar studies with various people showing that what we said probably happens when we discussed these studies, about ten days ago. He encouraged me that he cannot be 100% sure of what happened, “said Mr. Tsiodras and continued explaining:” That is, he detected the virus once, the next time he did not detect it because he did not have a very good sample or because his body had a fight and now he is detecting it because something else is reviving, in a way, the presence of the virus or the genetic material of the virus itself, but that does not mean that he is transmitting it. “

According to the Ministry of Health spokesperson for the coronavirus, it seems that the syndrome that the woman showed is something that has nothing to do with the presence of the virus, it is something irrelevant, probably a medical complication.

“It just caught our eye then. It is likely, like most cases reported to date, a presence of the virus’s genetic material, which does not mean transmission of the virus and not reinfection,” said Mr. Tsiodras.
