2019 novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) in Taiwan: Reports of two cases from Wuhan, China.
J Microbiol Immunol Infect. 2020 Jun; 53(3):481-484.JM

Abstract

We reported two cases with community-acquired pneumonia caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) who returned from Wuhan, China in January, 2020. The reported cases highlight non-specific clinical presentations of 2019 novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) as well as the importance of rapid laboratory-based diagnosis.
