"2 cases occult SarsCov2 in immunocompromised hosts: Dx originally not suspected due to repeat negative SARS-CoV-2 from NP specimens
isolation of viable SARS-CoV-2 virus + nucleocapsid + spike-protein antigen in lung tissue on immunohistochemistry 3-months from primary infection"

"suggests ongoing 🦠viral persistence and replication as a driver of the lung parenchymal changes,
which resolved after antiviral treatment."
Both patients survived:
discharged on days 80 and 100 respectively.
