Three Years Later, The Most Common Symptoms For COVID-19 Have Changed!
We have been dealing with COVID-19 for almost three years now.
At first, the coronavirus brought on a global health emergency that required the world to go into full lockdown and hundreds of thousands of lives were lost.
Since then, vaccines and boosters have been developed and the virus has mutated which means how we react to the virus has also changed.
This means different side effects to be on the look out for.
According to NJ.com, "the new most common COVID-19 symptoms have changed and vary widely depending on vaccination status."
You need to know which symptoms are now associated with the coronavirus.
Otherwise, you could be walking around while exhibiting signs of COVID-19 without being aware. Imagine how many people would be exposed.
According to NJ.com, a study was conducted and the top four symptoms for the fully vaccinated, partially vaccinated and unvaccinated have been determined.
So let's take a look at all three:
