A 49-year-old patient diagnosed with pulmonary edema, double pneumonia, and respiratory insufficiency, who, naturally, was also suspected of having the coronavirus disease, was taken from Armenia medical center to “Nork” infectious disease hospital on March 17. Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan posted this on Facebook.

“A sample was taken, and the result was negative; that is, the presence of coronavirus in the patient's body has been dismisses,” he added. “At the same time, all cardiopulmonary resuscitation measures were implemented, an additional brigade was involved, but unfortunately, the person's life could not be saved

Given the current situation in connection with coronavirus, I consider it necessary to especially state that the death of the person has nothing to do with coronavirus."
