Having a sore throat is becoming a dominant symptom of COVID-19 infection, with fever and loss of smell becoming less common, according to recent reports in the U.K.

COVID: While Omicron reinfections among older individuals were fewer, the rate was highest (475 of 3,136 individuals [15.1 per cent]) among those aged 18 to 29 years, the researchers said.
While scientists and health experts have reiterated that new Covid variants, capable of evading artificial immunity, may emerge again, it is extremely important to watch out for any changes in the body in such times.
