Symptoms of COVID-19 are similar to a range of other illnesses such as influenza and do not necessarily mean that you have COVID-19. Symptoms include:
- a cough
- a fever (at least 38 degrees celcius)
- shortness of breath
- sore throat
- temporary loss of smell
Sore throats are important too, so if you are aged 3 to 35 years old, and have a sore throat, drop in to get your throat swabbed for Strep A (which leads to rheumatic fever).
