It is very difficult for experts to determine the ongoing symptoms of the emerging corona virus, as some people may develop some symptoms, while others may become infected with the virus without symptoms, but a new study found a strong indication of corona infection even earlier. of the exam.
And a report from “Best Life Online” relays that in the past it was impossible to predict the symptoms of the virus that anyone who had contracted it would suffer, since some suffer respiratory failure, while others suffer digestive problems.
But according to a new study, there is a symptom that is monitored in 80 percent of those infected with the Coronavirus, and anyone who has it has a very high chance that they have the virus even before the test is done.
A team from University College London studied 590 patients in the UK who reported having suddenly lost their sense of smell or taste, and then 567 of them had a corona exam.
Study results, published in the journal PLoS Medicine, showed that 77.6 percent of those tests overall tested positive for the coronavirus.
And 80.4 percent of them reported loss of smell, while they found that 77.7 percent of those who lost their sense of taste had the virus.
A study previously published by the “Journal of International Medicine”, which included more than 1,400 confirmed people who had undergone an examination, concluded that seven out of 10 patients had headaches and loss of smell.
The full study, which included five European countries (Italy, France, Belgium, Spain and Switzerland), confirms that the loss of the sense of smell is “one of the symptoms” of Covid-19 and not just the result of a nasal congestion .
More than 34,683,300 people around the world have been infected with the emerging coronavirus, 23,923,600 of them have recovered to date.
The Corona virus has killed at least 1,029,593 people worldwide since the outbreak was reported in China in late December.
