Current Events > Got a very mild soar throat and barely there cough.

(+) Yeah! (+)

Should I be worried?

No fever so far.

Well I wouldn't ignore it. I'd isolate waiting for a fever to develop, maybe call a doctor about it.

Sore throat isn't one of the common symptoms of COVID-19. Still, if you feel sick, stay home.

I had to get a root canal yesterday from a badly infected molar and got a sore throat from the procedure but it kinda freaked me out.

It's 90+% fever, 80% fatigue, and 60+% coughing from the stats. Everything else is uncommon, and rare.

It really depends on the order it comes in. Is sore throat the very first symptom you got? Then more than likely, it's not related to Corona. If you get a fever first, then develop a sore throat, and start dry coughing non-stop, that's another thing.

yeah i was counting the sore throat as the first, then fever and coughing

personally speaking when i get a really bad cold/flu then i tend to have a sore throat for ~3 days before it kicks in. but that's not based on anything medical and purely my own experience lol

Give it a day or two. If your symptom is about the same, or improved, you're most likely fine.

For me, I had chills, feeling of burning up, mild head ache, and chest congestion for a week now. No coughing. Temp ranges from 96-98 daily.

You got covid?

Most likely not. I feel good throughout the day. Symptoms are the same, no worsening. My doctor, and health department said it's most likely the common cold/infection, they can last weeks.
