An-Najah News - Nablus - Japanese scientists revealed after studying the cases of people infected with the emerging coronavirus that they are exposed to lung damage even if the disease is without symptoms, which they considered a serious matter.

According to medical sources, the study relied on the results of a tomography of people infected with the virus from the ship “Diamond Princess”. The results of the study were published by the Radiology Society of North America.

It was found that among the 104 people who were infected on board, 76 had no symptoms. However, the majority of “asymptomatic” patients (41 people) had lung changes.

Based on this data, Japanese scientists have come to the conclusion that even with the course of the disease asymptomatic lung damage occurs.
