Covid can sometimes start with stomach cramps although not all cases of Covid start out with stomach cramps but you may get stomach cramps later on during the Covid-19 infection.

Early symptoms of Covid-19 which are reported by some people include fatigue, headache, sore throat or fever.

Other people with Covid-19 experience a loss of smell or taste.

COVID-19 can also cause symptoms that are mild at first, but then become more intense over five to seven days, with worsening cough and shortness of breath.

You can still test positive for COVID after recovery as many people have continued to test positive after COVID recovery for a few months or so.

You can test negative for COVID and still be contagious.

Sometimes you may get a false negative on a COVID-19 test and still be contagious so you still should be cautious if you think you have COVID-19.

When you have COVID-19 you may test positive for around 10 to 14 days.

However some people no longer are contagious after 10 days once the symptoms of COVID-19 appear.

You may not show any symptoms and still be infected with Covid-19 and infect someone without knowing it.

Covid symptoms can last around 10 to 14 days.

Most people who have Covid-19 actually recover and only have a mild case of Covid-19 and recover within 10 to 14 days although some people may have Covid symptoms for around a month.

After COVID you are contagious for around 10 days after the symptoms of COVID appear.

10 days after COVID symptoms appear and you begin to feel better then you most often are no longer contagious.

People with COVID-19 have reported a wide range of issues from mild symptoms to severe illness.

Symptoms may appear 2-14 days after exposure to the virus.

If you have COVID you should stay home, wear a mask and isolate yourself from others.

Stay hydrated, use a humidifier and get plenty of rest and within a week or two weeks you should recover from COVID.

However if you experience breathing issues, having trouble breathing or you think the COVID is getting worse, you're getting confused or weak then seek medical attention.

The reason you lose test and smell with COVID is because COVID-19 virus can affect cells that support these neurons and once the infection goes away, the olfactory nerve starts working properly again.

COVID is like a cold at first and sometimes when you have Covid-19 the virus may seem like the flu as well.

People with COVID-19 have had a wide range of symptoms reported – ranging from mild symptoms to severe illness.

Symptoms may appear 2-14 days after exposure to the virus.

Early symptoms reported by some people include fatigue, headache, sore throat or fever.

Others experience a loss of smell or taste.

COVID-19 can cause symptoms that are mild at first, but then become more intense over five to seven days, with worsening cough and shortness of breath.

Taste does eventually come back after Covid.

Losing your taste as well as smell is normal during Covid and once you recover from Covid the taste and smell should come back within a few weeks or so.

When you lose your smell with COVID it can take a week or a few weeks for your smell to return once you begin recovering from Covid-19.

Dysgeusia means a bad or horrible taste in your mouth which can occur for several different reasons.

Most of the time, dysgeusia is a side effect of certain treatments or medications, or it could be due to vitamin or mineral deficiencies.

People who are pregnant can also develop altered taste.

In rare cases, however, dysgeusia could be a symptom of liver disease, hypothyroidism or other health conditions.

Even Covid-19 can cause dysgeusia or a horrible taste in the mouth.

Some people do get a horrible taste in their mouth with the coronavirus and some people with the coronavirus lose their taste.

It's normal for people with Covid or the Coronavirus to have a distorted sense of taste, in which everything tastes sweet, sour, bitter or metallic.

Most times you're no longer contagious after 10 days of COVID as data has suggested that people with Covid-19 are no longer contagious after 10 days.

Covid in kids lasts around a few days to as long as 21 days.

In kids and adults Covid-19 most often lasts the same amount of time and some kids have lesser symptoms than adults and for most kids and even most adults Covid-19 does not get too bad and the kid or adult recovers.

If a kid gets gets COVID-19 they should stay quarantined at home for 10 days after positive testing or onset of symptoms, and must demonstrate improving symptoms without fever for 24 hours.

Covid-19 can be positive for around a few months after recovery although some people are no longer testing positive within a week or so after the Covid-19 recovery.

People who have recovered from COVID-19 can continue to have detectable SARS-CoV-2 RNA in upper respiratory specimens for up to 3 months after illness onset.

You can get Covid from using the same bathroom if you don't disinfect the bathroom such as the doorknob, sinks, toilets, showers etc.

The Covid-19 virus can be transferred to other people when they come into contact with the surfaces and then you touch your face etc.

So also make sure to wash your hands and face after being in the bathroom to prevent spread of the Covid-19 virus.

The Covid-19 virus can live and stay in the air indoors for around 3 to 4 hours unless the Covid-19 virus falls to surfaces and in that case the Covid-19 virus can last on hard surfaces for around 24 hours and on soft porous surfaces the Covid-19 virus can survive for around 3 to 4 hours.

So it's important to wash and disinfect surfaces often to kill the Covid1-9 virus as well as other viruses.

The Covid-19 Virus originated from bats.

Experts say that the Covid-19 Virus also known as the SARS-CoV-2 originated in bats.

That’s also how the coronaviruses behind Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS) and severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) got started.

Covid-19 virus was first detected in Wuhan City, Hubei Province, China.

The first infections were linked to a live animal market, but the virus is now spreading from person-to-person.

In December 12, 2019 A cluster of patients in Wuhan, Hubei Providence, China begin to experience shortness of breath and fever.

Coronaviruses are named for the crown-like spikes on their surface.

Human coronaviruses were first identified in the mid-1960s.

They are closely monitored by public health officials.

The first known infections from SARS‐CoV‐2 were discovered in Wuhan, China.

The original source of viral transmission to humans remains unclear, as does whether the virus became pathogenic before or after the spillover event.

COVID-19 is caused by a coronavirus called SARS-CoV-2.

Older adults and people who have severe underlying medical conditions like heart or lung disease or diabetes seem to be at higher risk for developing more serious complications from COVID-19 illness.
