History provided by mother at bedside secondary to patient's current tracheostomy.    Patient was brought to the emergency department.  Upon ED evaluation there is heart rate was elevated at 118, respiratory rate was 22, was placed on 6 L per trach collar with a sat of 80.  Temperature was up to 102.2 in the ER.  Patient met sepsis protocol.  While in the ER he received azithromycin, cefepime, dexamethasone, Vimpat, IV fluids, Keppra, and first dose of remdesivir.  Chest x-ray showed no acute findings in the chest, CTA of the chest was then completed showed mild retrocardiac consolidation , no obvious PE, minimal dependent right upper lobe consolidation favoring atelectasis but aspiration pneumonia cannot be ruled out.  Lab work was obtained.  Patient was positive for COVID-19, procalcitonin was elevated at 0.38, white blood cell count was elevated at 17.2, hemoglobin was stable at 16.1, potassium was low at 3.2 renal function was normal with a GFR greater than 90.
