Diagnostic dilemma, an incidental diagnosis of COVID 19

Abstract

COVID 19 or SARS-CoV-2 infection was first reported in December 2019 in Wuhan City of China. Since then, it continues to spread globally and has been declared a pandemic. These patients present predominantly with respiratory complaints; however, in this article, we describe a case that was detected incidentally during workup of another suspecting diagnosis. We also elaborate on the benefits and importance of rapid testing.
