What are the differences between COVID-19, colds and flu? A picture shows how to quickly identify them!

In the absence of nucleic acid and antigen testing, how can we tell whether we have COVID-19, a cold or the flu?

Experts say the only difference between COVID-19 and influenza is that COVID-19 is more likely to cause loss of taste and smell; both viruses are also highly contagious and tend to appear in groups, especially the Omicron strain. Colds, influenza, and COVID-19 all carry a certain risk of developing into severe illness or triggering other more serious diseases.

Regardless of the cause, if the symptoms are severe and cannot be relieved, or if there is a high fever that persists for more than 3 days, difficulty breathing, loss of consciousness, worsening of chronic diseases or indicators out of control...seek medical attention immediately in these dangerous situations!
