Reversing diagnosis, premature baby in Jerusalem cleared of coronavirus

The Health Ministry says a premature baby who was exposed to a nurse who was later diagnosed with COVID-19 has tested negative for the virus.

The ministry on Monday said the baby had been infected. But today, it says three additional tests run on the baby have turned up negative.

The other babies in the preemie ward at Jerusalem’s Shaare Zedek Medical Center are also safe, says the ministry.
