HRCT Score 2/25
My friend had fever and mild cough, RTPCR was negative but had fever 102. Started with antibiotics and fever came down.
After 7days he had a HRCT scan and the CT Sevirity score was 2/25 and CO RAD score was 4 with " foci of ground glass opacities are seen in bilateral lower lobes with subpleural distribution"
Fever reduced, no other symptoms, spo2 is 98/99
Please suggest whether it can be COVID or anything else?
