Pediatric anesthesiologist Pavel Silkovsky, who often has to deal with suspicions of coronavirus, spoke about the symptoms that most likely indicate infection COVID-19.

Scientists have already proven that loss of taste and smell indicates infection with the coronavirus. But I would also add flavor distortion to this list.

If at least one of these symptoms is combined with symptoms typical of a cold or flu, you should see a doctor or take a test.
I often repeat to my patients the unspoken rule of diagnosis: if in doubt, take it for the worse.
