Resetting of symptoms list does not remove current diagnosis

[ngkaiwen123]

Created a new diagnosis from the following symptoms, which resulted in diagnosis of "Fever" and "Sore Throat".

However, after resetting the symptoms, diagnosis history does not update accordingly. It is unsure whether the diagnosis history and symptom history is supposed to work together for output. This may also confuse users as to why there is still diagnosis for the day, when the symptoms are already reset.

The underlying cause is the same as the duplicate issue.

The 'Original' Bug

[The team marked this bug as a duplicate of the following bug]

"View Diagnosis History" is confusing to use.

When symptoms are updated, it seems that past diagnosis and present diagnosis are mixed together. This makes it difficult to track what is the latest diagnosis of the patient.

After the first input of symptoms, the diagnosis is that I have a "fever, stomachache and and food posioning".
This is correctly shown in the view diagnosis history, shown below.

However, after deletion of a symptom, say "fever", my new diagnosis is simply "Stomach Ache" (Below)

When I went back to check the "View Diagnosis History" again, there is no new diagnosis shown. It is unsure whether the diagnosis of "Stomach Ache" is mixed within the first diagnosis history, or is it not created? Is it also possibly a functionality bug?

Shown below is after diagnosis of "stomachache".

Their Response to the 'Original' Bug

[This is the team's response to the above 'original' bug]

After deleting some symptoms, we believe that updating your current diagnosis is sufficient for a patient, without needing to update your past diagnoses. Therefore, if your current diagnosis is not included in your diagnosis history for that day, it will be added in; if it is already present, it will be ignored. This is not a feature flaw, but rather, an intended design of the feature, since the diagnosis history is supposed to reflect all diagnoses the patient received, which should include any past diagnoses received. Hence this is out of scope.

Items for the Tester to Verify

❓ Issue duplicate status

Team chose to mark this issue as a duplicate of another issue (as explained in the Team's response above)

• I disagree

Reason for disagreement: This bug is about the resetting of symptoms, rather than about the diagnosis history. Resetting symptoms should have cleared the diagnosis history. If the group intends to save the past diagnosis, there should be an option to "make a new diagnosis", or else it may confuse the user as to why they are still diagnosed with illnesses despite clearing their symptoms from the symptom list.

❓ Issue severity

Team chose [severity.Low]
Originally [severity.Medium]

• I disagree

Reason for disagreement:

Using the definition of "severity level" as shown by the screenshot above, this feature flaw causes much inconveinience to the user, which should have remained at severity.Medium.

Diagnosis history is presented in a confusing manner that users have a difficult time figuring out which is their latest diagnosis. This is not just a "minor inconvenience", but a rather frequent one.
