A chest radiograph (Fig. 1A) showed bilateral lower lung opacities reported as "typical of viral pneumonia including COVID-19." A repeat chest radiograph (Fig. 1B) showed worsening lower lung opacities and was interpreted as "most consistent with COVID-19 pneumonia." A repeat nasopharyngeal swab RT-PCR was obtained, and the patient was admitted to the respiratory isolation unit for presumptive COVID-19 pneumonia. A chest CT was then performed (Fig. 1C and D) to further evaluate his worsening respiratory status.
