The CDC has added six new Coronavirus symptoms that can appear anywhere from 2 to 14 days after exposure. Aside from the coughing, shortness of breath and fever, you should look for:

  • Chills
  • Repeated shaking with chills
  • Muscle pain
  • Headache
  • Sore throat
  • New loss of taste or smell

Researchers are finding that Coronavirus has potential to attack the entire body, not just the respiratory system.

Have you had any of these symptoms since February? Have you been tested for Coronavirus? If you had Coronavirus, what symptoms did you have?
