Commonly Asked Question:

What are the main symptoms of COVID-19 infection? 

The most common symptoms of COVID-19 are:

  • Fever
  • Cough
  • Shortness of breath

Some people have reported other symptoms like stuffy nose, sneezing, sore throat, headaches, and feeling tired or achy. It can be hard to pinpoint the exact cause of every symptom, because cold viruses, flu viruses, and seasonal allergies can affect people at the same time as the new coronavirus.

Call 911 if you have trouble breathing, or chest pain or pressure.
