The most common COVID symptoms

What are the most common COVID-19 symptoms?

CBS News reports on a new study that broke them out into six main groups:

It feels like the flu but no fever  Other possible symptoms in this group include headaches, loss of smell, muscle pains, cough, sore throat and chest pain.

It feels like the flu WITH a fever  There may also be a loss of appetite, hoarseness, headaches, loss of smell, cough and a sore throat.

Gastrointestinal issues  You might also have headaches, loss of smell, loss of appetite, diarrhea, sore throat and chest pain but no cough.

Severe Level One  Fatigue is one of the bigger symptoms in this group along with headaches, loss of smell, cough, fever, hoarseness and chest pain.

Severe Level Two  You sense a feeling of confusion plus headaches, loss of smell, loss of appetite, cough, fever, hoarseness, sore throat, chest pain, fatigue and muscle pain.

Severe Level Three. All of the Level Two symptoms in addition to abdominal pain, breathing issues and diarrhea.

The only two symptoms all patients had in common were headaches and a loss of taste or smell.

If you recognize any of these groups, we’d recommend a call to your doctor today.
