LAGOS JUNE 28TH (NEWSRANGERS)-Three new coronavirus symptoms have been added to the official list.
The US Centers for Disease Control (CDC) has added a runny nose or congestion, nausea and diarrhoea to the recognised symptoms of Covid-19.
These new signs come on top of coughing, fever, fatigue, muscle or body aches, headaches, loss of taste or smell and a sore throat, LancsLive reports.
The CDC says symptoms may appear between two to 14 days after exposure to the virus.
Dr Miriam Stoppard previously said: “Quite often diarrhoea can be a symptom, and in up to half of patients, other gastrointestinal problems are reported.
“Whether coronavirus leads to such symptoms directly – by infecting the gastrointestinal tract or indirectly as part of general inflammation – isn’t known.
