It has been reported that some patients have been misdiagnosed with Pneumonia, when in fact the correct diagnosis in their specific case was Coronavirus (COVID-19).
Treatment for COVID-19 depends on the symptoms and their severity. In most cases, no treatment is required, and the body fights off the virus on its own. Pain medication may be required to ease body pains and reduce fever. Current vaccines have shown high efficiency in reducing hospitalisation and death rate in patients. COVID-19 is diagnosed by a PCR test done on a nasal swab. RAT antigen test kits are also available for home testing.
