A 54-Year-Old Man With High-Grade Fever, Cough, Dyspnea, and Vesiculobullous Skin Eruptions.
Case presentation: A 54-year-old Egyptian man with a 5-day history of worsening cough, high-grade fever, and progressive dyspnea was referred to our hospital. A 3-day course of ceftriaxone provided in an outpatient setting showed no clinical improvement. Medical history was unremarkable, except for bilateral pulmonary embolism diagnosed 3 years earlier. The patient actively smoked and denied the use of alcohol and illicit drugs. The patient worked as cook and had lived in Switzerland for the past 10 years. Five weeks before the actual presentation, he had traveled to Egypt. One of his children showed symptoms of a respiratory infection approximately 2 weeks before that. His only regular medication was rivaroxaban.
