Beijing, Feb 21 (Reuters) – A coronavirus patient initially discharged following recovery in southwestern Sichuan province’s Chengdu city has been readmitted after testing positive again during a quarantine period at home, the city’s public health clinical center said on Friday.
Similar cases have been reported in other regions, the center said in a statement.
China’s National Health Commission recommends recovered patients to continue to monitor their health for 14 days, wear masks and reduce outdoor activities after leaving hospitals due to risks of contracting other pathogens.
