After reading sentences such as "…by needlessly clouding the clinical picture, false phenotypes … upon inspection of patient data, simply do not exist" , It is not clear to us -and without a doubt to most readers -what sort of clear, and self-evident truth we (and other authors) have been trying to cloud. We note also with concern the conclusions of the editorial: "by prematurely phenotyping patients with COVID-19, we expose ourselves and our patients to considerable and preventable risk" and we invite the authors to express with clarity the risks they are referring to and how their argument is furthering the cause of patients and clinicians. ./cache/cord-349440-jxigsdzh.txt ./txt/cord-349440-jxigsdzh.txt
