First we need to expand testing for asymptomatic people. Now and forever we need to extend post-recovery mandatory isolation periods (and provide them help of course).

#Authorities do not explain why Italian continues to test positive, one month 17 days later

The Minister of Health, Rafael Sánchez Cárdenas, revealed that the Italian, who was detected as the first case of coronavirus in the country, continues to test positive for the disease and is kept in isolation.

Sánchez Cárdenas appointed a commission to investigate the case in depth, as it is taken as a model to find an explanation for why it continues to test COVID 19.

Last March 1, the Italian citizen tested positive for the disease, being the first case registered in the country and more than a month and a half later, he continues with the disease.

The official explained that the patient is stable and continues in isolation because he continues to test positive for multiple coronaviruses.

"I am appointing a commission to take the case as a model, due to the prolonged positivity of the disease, so that we can establish why it is testing positive," he said.

The Italian patient has been in isolation for a month and 17 days at the DR Military Hospital. Ramón de Lara.

Have they tested whether he is still infectious and shedding the virus at this point is what I would like to know. The fact he is still isolated suggests it.
