Ocular transmission of COVID-19 is uncertain. 64 tear samples were collected from 17 COVID-19 patients between Day 3 to Day 20 from initial symptoms. Neither viral culture nor reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) detected the virus, suggesting a low risk of ocular transmission.

评估 2019 年冠状病毒病 (COVID-19) 患者的病毒脱落和眼泪传染性。



COVID-19 的经眼传播尚不确定。从 17 名 COVID-19 患者出现初始症状的第 3 天到第 20 天期间,收集了 64 份泪液样本。病毒培养物和逆转录聚合酶链反应(RT-PCR)均未检测到该病毒,表明经眼传播的风险较低。
