What is a recovered coronavirus patient?

6 April 2020 By Avinash Meetoo Leave a Comment

Right now, 7 people have recovered from the coronavirus in Mauritius. I do not know yet whether an official definition of recovery has been shared by the authorities to the population of Mauritius but, until I get this information, here is a definition from the Center for Disease Control and Prevention of the US. The CDC defines recovery from the coronavirus for those who will not have a test as such:

  1. You have had no fever for at least 72 hours (that is three full days of no fever without the use medicine that reduces fevers) AND
  2. Other symptoms have improved (for example, when your cough or shortness of breath have improved) AND
  3. At least 7 days have passed since your symptoms first appeared.

For those who will have a test, the definition for recovery changes:

  1. You no longer have a fever (without the use medicine that reduces fevers) AND
  2. Other symptoms have improved (for example, when your cough or shortness of breath have improved) AND
  3. You received two negative tests in a row, 24 hours apart.

Look out for fever.
