Laboratory head Katherine Kedzierska said the scientists found the woman's immune system responded to coronavirus in the similar way humans fight off influenza.
This suggests an otherwise healthy person could be expected to fight off a mild to moderate case of coronavirus in about three days.
"We found that although COVID-19 is caused by a new virus, in a previously healthy patient robust immune responses can be elicited and associated with clinical recovery," she said.
"What we found was that three days after the patient was admitted, we saw large populations of several immune cells, which are often a telltale sign of recovery during seasonal influenza infection, so we predicted that the patient would recover in three days, which is exactly what happened."
Take that anti-vaxers, it smells like,
"Ruck, ruck, ruck, ruck ....... Ruck, ruck, ruck, ruck"
