Risk of group aggregative behavior during COVID-19 outbreak: A case report.

World J Clin Cases. 2021 Jan 06;9(1):170-174

Authors: Zuo H, Hu ZB, Zhu F

Abstract
BACKGROUND: At the end of 2019, a new epidemic of viral pneumonia emerged in China and was determined to be caused by a novel coronavirus, which was named coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) by the World Health Organization. The epidemic quickly spread, causing a worldwide pandemic. Scientists and clinicians across the globe have shifted their research efforts towards understanding the virus itself and its epidemiology.
CASE SUMMARY: In mid-January 2020, a Chinese family made a visit to a local city, and within the next 2 wk one after another fell ill with COVID-19. At the beginning of their first illness onset, the family had eaten in a restaurant, which led to the subsequent illness onset in another two families. All cases were diagnosed as COVID-19 by real-time fluorescent reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction. Epidemiological investigation showed that the transmission chain was complete.
CONCLUSION: This chain of social exposure highlights the danger of group aggregative behavior for spread of COVID-19.
