COVID-19 Story - Brooklyn 纽约

https://www.reddit.com/r/nyc/comments/fayko1/my_covid19_story_brooklyn/

日本旅行史,症状如此明显,测了flu, 沒有。但新冠,只要沒有life threatening symptoms, CDC就不给测,打发回家, 行动自由。CDC这样不作为,会不会引起大爆发。等出现了life threatening symptoms 时,岂不是too late? 病人已病入膏肓,难以挽救。而且之前带毒已经不知传柒了多少人?华盛顿州死亡的那一例,死了之后测试结果才岀来。CDC拒绝做。

On arriving back to America (3 days ago), I developed a 102F fever, coughing, and aches. I went to a local hospital in Brooklyn's ER. I informed them of my travel, they provided me a mask, and redirected me to a private room and followed infection protocols (full face covers, gloves, aprons, etc.). I had a chest x-ray and testing for flu/cold/pneumonia/and about 25 other viruses. They all came back negative.

At this point, the hospital called the CDC requesting permission to perform the COVID-19 testing. The CDC denied the request on the ground that I did not have the most life-threatening symptoms: chest pain and shortness of breath. According to everything I read it's very likely not to have these symptoms if you're in your 30's and relatively healthy.

And... that was that. They discharged me, said I don't have Corona virus, since they didn't test me for it, and said I can ride the subway, return to work, do whatever I want.

Of course my doctor disagreed. She said I should treat myself as if I am infected. "
