The epidemiological recovery in France coincides with spring, the allergy season. The symptoms of Covid-19 can easily be confused with those of an allergy: irritated throat, headaches, fatigue…
If at the start of the pandemic, the virus affected the bronchi, today the symptoms are felt in the upper airways. The new symptoms of Covid-19 can also be confused with those of anginawithout visible swelling of the tonsils.
The duration of symptoms is also different from cases at the start of the pandemic. At the time, the dangerousness of the symptoms was between the 7th and the 9th day, whereas today, they usually run over five days.
On the other hand, there are more and more Covid dits long these last months. 10% to 30% of infected adults have one or more symptoms of the disease which last for four weeks or more according to Doctor Fronton, questioned by The Dispatch. Affected patients would also mostly report a “brain fog”that is to say that they feel the impression of finding themselves from time to time in “pause” and of not being able to think or concentrate.
