They are when there's little quantitative data to work with.

A lot of people's biggest questions are what the hell "COVID-19 symptoms" and apparently it means just about anything.

I'm suspicious of the 2 week long illness my family has just gotten over. Hit each of us differently. Predominantly nasal mucus, but the kids had some chest congestion, wife had a fever, and I had what felt like a sinus infection and a bit of a dry cough.

None of it particularly severe. Likely not COVID-19, but given the scattershot presentation of the disease in non-critical cases, I'm not ruling it out.



No, the symptoms are pretty clear:

Fever, dry cough, fatigue, sputum production, shortness of breath (dyspnoe), muscle/joint pain.
