Experts cautioned that the above-mentioned patients with non-respiratory system as the first manifestation of easy access to the relevant departments, especially in the Department of Digestive Medicine. Due to the lack of specific clinical manifestations, it is easy to cause missed diagnosis or misdiagnosis and increase the chance of transmission.
