The main symptoms of coronavirus are:
**a high temperature – this means you feel hot to touch on your chest or back (you do not need to measure your temperature)
**a new, continuous cough – this means coughing a lot for more than an hour, or 3 or more coughing episodes in 24 hours (if you usually have a cough, it may be worse than usual)
**a loss or change to your sense of smell or taste – this means you've noticed you cannot smell or taste anything, or things smell or taste different to normal
Most people with coronavirus have at least 1 of these symptoms.

Symptoms of COVID-19 can vary from person to person. Symptoms may also vary in different age groups. Some of the more commonly reported symptoms include:
**new or worsening cough
**shortness of breath or difficulty breathing
**temperature equal to or over 38°C
**feeling feverish
chills
fatigue or weakness
muscle or body aches
**new loss of smell or taste
headache
gastrointestinal symptoms (abdominal pain, diarrhea, vomiting)
feeling very unwell
Children have been more commonly reported to have abdominal symptoms, and skin changes or rashes.
In severe cases, infection can lead to death.
Symptoms may take up to 14 days to appear after exposure to COVID-19.
Evidence indicates that the virus can be transmitted to others from someone who is infected but not showing symptoms. This includes people who:
have not yet developed symptoms (pre-symptomatic)
never develop symptoms (asymptomatic)

Agreed. We should take front on thisBen_spanna wrote:With the potential world wide outbreak of this deadly virus Coronavirus in China and Chinese new year being this week coming, there are millions of Chinese nationals that return to China to celebrate, many nationals from Trinidad also go back home.
Should these NAtionals be allowed to return to Trinidad freely after their celebrations and risk a national epidemic?
For once id like to see Trinidad health and immigration act responsibly and bar travelers from re-entering.

Did we have ebola cases?....if authorities are looking into this matter, I suggest quarantine at the airport, necessary checks them and everything else to follow..
