With ongoing public health concerns and an increase in respiratory illnesses this winter, it is critical to differentiate between symptoms COVID-19, influenza A and the common cold for early detection and appropriate treatment.
COVID-19:
The most common symptoms include fever, persistent cough, loss of smell and taste, extreme fatigue, shortness of breath and muscle pain. It’s also important to look out for less common symptoms, such as sore throat, nasal congestion, nausea, or diarrhea.
Influenza A:
Influenza A, also known as H1N1 flu, shares some symptoms with COVID-19, but there are key differences. Those affected may experience sudden fever, severe headache, cough, severe fatigue and muscle pain. Influenza A often occurs more intensely and quickly than the common cold.
Cold:
The common cold typically has milder symptoms compared to COVID-19 and influenza A. Typical signs include nasal congestion, sneezing, mild sore throat, intermittent cough, and possibly a low-grade fever. Loss of smell and taste is rare with a cold.
It is important to remember that the best way to confirm the presence of these diseases isrelevant medical tests. If you experience any of these symptoms, seek medical attention and follow public health recommendations to protect yourself and others.
