How do we differentiate the flu symptoms from that of covid-19?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Check with your Dr: The symptoms of Covid19 and flu can be very similar. The CDC has a great symptoms checker here: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/if-you-are-sick/steps-when-sick.html Your doctor can also help evaluate you to determine if your illness is more likely COVID-19 vs influenza.
