Uncertainty over main Covid-19 symptoms in children
BBC, 04 Sep 2020
Researchers have found that children with coronavirus infection may display a very wide range of symptoms. People can request a test if they have a new continuous cough, fever or loss of taste or smell, but research by Queen’s University Belfast found that diarrhoea and vomiting were more common symptoms in children with Covid-19. And preliminary findings by King’s College London are that skin rashes, headaches and fatigue are among other signs that could indicate infection. Our medical editor Fergus Walsh reports.
