The 32-year-old freelance TV worker in south China's Guangdong Province who was the first confirmed SARS patient in China's mainland after the spring outbreak of the epidemic in 2003, left the hospital Thursday.
The patient surnamed Luo complained of a headache, fever and cough on Dec. 16 and was admitted to an isolation room at the No. 1 Hospital of the Guangzhou-based Zhongshan University on Dec. 20.He was transferred to the No. 8 People's Hospital on Dec. 24, and has had a normal temperature ever since.
Luo was confirmed to be a SARS patient on Jan. 5, but his condition improved daily with the conventional treatment from a team of 20 or so medical workers at the No. 8 People's Hospital, including antibiotics and support treatment to prevent complications.
All of the 81 people Luo had had contact with, including 42 close contacts, did not show any symptoms of the disease, and the last one was expected to be discharged from isolation Thursday, after a two-week quarantine. |
