Cough
Could be either COVID-19 or allergies
Today, we think a cough is synonymous with COVID-19 and keep our distance if we hear someone hacking. However, it could be allergies or COVID-19. When it is due to COVID-19, the cough will be a dry one. Coughing is more common with COVID-19 than it is with allergies. However, if your cough seems to come on only when you are in certain places or near certain things, and then subsides, it could be due to allergies as your throat may itch, causing a cough, in the presence of allergens. A COVID-19 cough will not come and go based on your surroundings. It will remain active throughout your illness.
