The retired man showed flu symptoms on March 31 and went to Shanghai No. 10 People's Hospital on April 2, where he was diagnosed with upper respiratory tract infection.
He went to the hospital again on April 4 as his condition didn't improve, and he was diagnosed with pneumonia. On April 6 he was tested positive for the H7N9 virus by the Shanghai Center for Disease Control and Prevention.
The man received antiviral therapies as well as treatment for his hypertension. Gradually his condition began to improve. He was tested H7N9 negative on Tuesday and all his flu symptoms were gone yesterday.
But the hospital said it will continue to check his health in follow-up visits.
