This woman may not have had corona at all. Just a common cold. What’s not being reported is a diagnosis called ‘’rule out’’. Rule out means the ‘’patient presented’’(doctor talk) symptoms consistent with Covid 19 but was diagnosed for rhino(nose) influenza, aka the common cold. Patient is discharged as ‘’rule out’’.

From the article:

“She went to the emergency room on March 17, was diagnosed with double pneumonia and tested positive for the virus.” <-— THIS IS A HORRIBLE CONDITION TO BE IN.

Are you talking about the first woman in this article or the second? The article says about woman #1:

She went to the emergency room on March 17, was diagnosed with double pneumonia and tested positive for the virus.

Woman #2 might fit the "rule out" criteria, but I didn't see mention that she was prescribed hydroxychloroquine (as was woman #1).
