Abstract
The numbers of diagnosed and reported cases of infection with the SARS-CoV-2 virus causing the disease COVID-19, which grew into a global pandemic, have remained consistently low in all countries, including the Czech Republic, since May 2023, when the World Health Organization declared an end to the pandemic. However, it must be said that the measures implemented to control this infection did not meet all expectations. Although new mutations of the virus that can potentially cause disease, continue to emerge, it appears that most people have gradually learned to coexist with them. However, due to some unique properties of the SARS-CoV-2 virus and its variants, there will still be predisposed individuals who will develop illness and need hospitalization along with effective treatment to be supported and monitored by adequate laboratory tests. This article is a commentary on this issue and deals primarily with the diagnosis and care of early-phase COVID-19 patients.
