COVID-19 is the kind of medical condition that requires a test to confirm the diagnoses, and that’s because the most common symptoms also appear with other viral infections like the flu or cold. Two types of tests can confirm the infection: one detects the presence of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, which is replicating in the body, and the other finds the antibodies that fight off the disease.
Being able to quickly diagnose COVID-19 clinically could be of massive help to physicians and patients since tests are still in such short supply. Doctors have started observing some early COVID-19 signs caused by the novel coronavirus. Some patients experience the sudden loss of smell and taste, and researchers already proved that the virus can interact with some of the cells in the olfactory tissue. Now, new reports from various countries indicate that some patients may be prone to multiple neurological signs upon being infected, although these symptoms can occur with other neurological diseases.
