A 16-year-old boy diagnosed with the coronavirus is hospitalized in serious condition at the Rambam Medical Center in Haifa, Hebrew reports say.
The teenager is suffering from organ failure and heart complications, the Ynet news site says.
According to the Kan public broadcaster, two tests for the virus came back negative and the third was positive.
Ynet says the teenager was given five virus tests, four of which came back negative. It says the last coronavirus test came back “borderline positive,” signaling the diagnosis remains unclear.
