Overview

Coronavirus infection should be differentiated from other diseases presenting with cough, fever, shortness of breath and tachypnea.

Differentiating Coronavirus Infection from other Diseases

Coronavirus infection should be differentiated from other diseases presenting with cough, fever, shortness of breath and tachypnea. The differentials include the following:[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22]
