All patients included in the present study were verified as positive for SARS-CoV-2 infection by reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). At present clinical practice, patients with improved respiratory symptoms, improved pulmonary imaging, and nucleic acid tests negative twice consecutively (sampling interval ≥ 24 hours) can be discharged. reported that potential false-negative nucleic acid testing results for SARS-CoV-2 could be caused by thermal inactivation of samples with low viral loads. Value of Diagnostic Testing for SARS-CoV-2/COVID-19 Stability issues of RT-PCR testing of SARS-CoV-2 for hospitalized patients clinically diagnosed with COVID-19 Potential false-negative nucleic acid testing results for Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 from thermal inactivation of samples with low viral loads ./cache/cord-278225-d0gxb6bx.txt ./txt/cord-278225-d0gxb6bx.txt
