Prolonged Infectious SARS-CoV-2 Shedding from an Immunocompromised Patient

2020-09-28

Abstract excerpt

Long-term SARS-CoV-2 shedding was observed from the upper respiratory tract of an immunocompromised patient with chronic lymphocytic leukemia and acquired hypogammaglobulinemia. Shedding of SARS-CoV-2 genomic and subgenomic RNA was observed up to 105 days, and infectious virus up to 70 days past the initial diagnosis. The infection was not cleared after a first treatment with convalescent plasma, suggesting limite...
