The epidemiology, diagnosis and treatment of COVID-19
Open accessAbstract
Highlights • The mean incubation period is 2-14 days, and the basic reproduction number is 2.24-3.58.• COVID-19 infection should be diagnosed clinically with typical respiratory syndromes coupled with recent exposure.• Chest computerized tomography (CT) could facilitate early diagnosis.• Public health measures, such as isolation, quarantine, social distancing and community containment, can curb COVID-19.• Clinical trials assessing antivirals, chloroquine, hydroxychloroquine, glucocorticoids, convalescent plasma transfusion against COVID-19.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
