Hi Thanks for the database it is great and really helps me in the work

My question to you How did you define a healed patient 14 days or a period of time has passed since it was approved and its symptoms have disappeared or by a negative PCR test Or any other method

I would be happy if you could answer (I also do not know this is a sufficient answer) it can help me a lot

This is very heterogeneous across the different datasets. We usually only include outcome when specified in the original source document. I would recommend to look at the original data dictionaries form the respective sources.
