This document provides an Early Warning Score (EWS) for COVID-19 that assigns points to various parameters such as confirmed pneumonia on CT scan, contact with COVID-19 patients, fever, age, sex, respiratory symptoms, and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio to determine the level of suspicion for COVID-19, with a score of 10 or higher indicating a patient is highly suspected of having the virus. SARS-COV-2 nucleic acid detection is listed as the independent diagnostic indicator.
