The absolute neutrophil counts were below normal....something knocked his immune system wacky and his white counts were below normal...not necessarily a good thing. Liver enzymes ast, alt were elevating and his lactic acid was rising. LDH was spiking...would love to have seen his troponin and ckmb(MI?). Platelets dropped slightly but they might have been giving him lovenox or subq heparin for dvt prophylaxis. Fibrinogen was elevating indicating a coagulopathy of sorts also referring back to the liver enzymes.

It would be interesting to note what his t cell counts/cd4 counts were.

Did patient “0” die?

No. Age 35. He recovered. As far as we know.
