Coronavirus: Five Iranian IRGC members dead
Yaghoub Fazeli, Al Arabiya EnglishWednesday, 11 March 2020
Five members of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) have died from coronavirus, IRGC spokesman Ramezan Sharif said on Wednesday.
The five IRGC members and a number of Basij members have been “martyred” in the “fight against coronavirus,” the semi-official Tasnim news agency cited Sharif as saying. The Basij is a paramilitary arm of the IRGC.
Over 100,000 members of the IRGC and the Basij have been deployed to help contain the coronavirus outbreak in Iran, said Sharif.
At least 13 Iranian regime figures have died from coronavirus and 11 others were infected since the beginning of the outbreak in the Islamic Republic.

Some of cases are indeed outside of what expected. In addition to ARDS, have seen “crazy paving” pattern on CT, lobar pneumonia, and diarrhea as presenting complaint (with fever and respiratory symptoms though)
