An Unexpected Diagnosis of COVID-19 in a Trauma Patient

Abstract

At the end of December 2019, a fast-spreading outbreak had started due to a novel coronavirus in Wuhan city of Hubei, China. At first, patients who do not meet the disease’s criteria were accepted without COVID-19 but later we noticed that even these patients may have the disease. So, during the pandemic period, every patient must be assumed to have the disease and necessary preventive measures must be taken. In this case, we unexpectedly observed COVID-19 in an old patient who admitted to the emergency department with trauma.
