Since China reported the emergence of a new coronavirus at the end of December, the SARS-like virus has infected more than 500 and killed 17. But while older individuals have died from the Wuhan virus, some younger patients — including a 10-year-old boy — have since been released from the hospital. The youngest victim of the Wuhan virus, a woman surnamed Yin, was hospitalised for more than a month before succumbing to the virus. On December 10, the 48-year-old woman reported a fever, coughing, body soreness, and fatigue, and underwent anti-infection treatment for two weeks, according to the NHC. But not all those who died after being infected reported a fever before being hospitalised, according to the NHC.
