【美国女子治疗新冠肺炎花费约25万人民币:我自己都不认识谁能有那么多钱】Danni Askini, a woman diagnosed with the COVID-19 in the U.S. faces a medical bill of 34,927.43 U.S. dollars (about 248,000 yuan) for testing and treatment, according to Time Magazine. The woman, who experienced symptoms of chest pain, shortness of breath, dramatic body temperature changes, and cough, went to the doctor several times before she was finally tested for the coronavirus. "I was pretty sticker-shocked," she spoke to the magazine about her bill, "I personally don't know anybody who has that kind of money." The outbreak has put her upcoming new job on hold. According to Time, the Families First Coronavirus Response Act passed by the Congress recently covers testing costs, but does not address the cost of treatment, meaning that tens of thousands of Americans may face the problem Askini is now struggling with.#全球战疫总动员#
