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.
