The CT image is used to assess the disease progress, whereas the continued two times of negative results from SARS-CoV-2 nucleic acid detection had been considered as a criterion for ending antiviral treatment. Our report highlighted the unsynchronized expression in the changes of CT image and nucleic acid detection in COVID-19, and showed the suspected SARS-CoV-2 carrier. On day 16, the 4th result of nucleic acid in throat swab changed to negative, whereas it was positive in sputum ( Fig. 1) , thus continued the antiviral treatment with interferon inhalation and lopinavir/ ritonavir. On day 8 and day 10, SARS-CoV-2 nucleic acid in throat swab were shown the negative at that two time, and the repeated chest CT image showed that the infection range was declined a lot (Fig. 1) . ./cache/cord-297439-xg0pkjrh.txt ./txt/cord-297439-xg0pkjrh.txt
