2. You notice a dry cough
The CDC also reported that 59 percent to 82 percent of COVID-19 patients experienced a dry cough. According to Lisa Maragakis, M.D., M.P.H. from the Johns Hopkins Health System, the virus “travels to the back of your nasal passages and to the mucous membranes in the back of your throat.”
So, when you’re infected with this virus, you will start to notice a dry cough. However, take into consideration that allergies can also cause a dry cough. If you know that you can develop an allergic reaction at specific triggers such as dust mites and certain medications, don’t jump to conclusions.
Unless your dry cough is not accompanied by another coronavirus symptom, you shouldn’t stress yourself out.
