Dear MEL Topic Readers,
Is it allergies, the flu or the coronavirus?
How to tell the difference
You see more people wearing a facial mask these
days if they get any. The number of confirmed coronavirus patients has already
exceeded 100,000 around the world. You may wonder if any of the symptoms you
suffer from, such as the stuffy nose, sore throat, or sneezing is a sign of being
infected by a bad cold or the flu, if not the novel coronavirus. Are there any
easy and simple ways to tell the difference between allergy and virus infection?
In fact, though symptoms vary by individuals,
there are relatively clear distinctions in the symptoms of allergy/flu and the
flu/coronavirus, such as fever, fatigue, and body aches. They sound simple
enough even for a schoolchild to understand. But there are common symptoms
between the seasonal flu or cold and coronavirus, such as fever, body aches,
fatigue, and coughs. So, how can you tell if you need an emergency care service
or not? It is shortness of breath.
Enjoy reading the article and learn which
action you should take, get a pain reliever, take an allergy relief, go to the doctor,
or call the coronavirus hotline.
