Globe is going through a never seen devastating pandemic of COVID-19 since December, 2019. Now, after a span of six months, COVID-19 is no more new and many characteristics of the virus, it’s path physiology, clinical features, disease progression and management came forth. This is truly remarkable and we salute to the global fraternity. We learnt a many. Disease course is defined as of continuous 10 days, if everything else is normal. Third to eighth day is the defined risk period and ninth to twelfth day is the period of deterioration in symptomatic. Symptoms developing after 21 days defined to be recurrence and no such definite incidents is yet detected. To the contrary of all the cases we find in our day to day practice in different COVID centers, here is an anecdote case report of an elderly doctor with two definitive peaks of symptoms within the defined disease course of 10 days, which is unique and not reported elsewhere till date. Sore, wet and tingling nose along with night sweat with or without fever are the earliest and most consistent features of covid-19 as we found in this case report and later confirmed by analyzing in all other cases where most of the cases reported these symptoms.
