As the Covid-19 virus continues to spread and mutate, the symptoms of an infection may look much more different now than they did at the beginning of the pandemic.
An expert has suggested that new data has revealed that a high number of cases begins with a sore throat. Professor Tim Spector, co-founder of the King's College ZOE symptom tracker app noted that "Covid starts in two-thirds of people with a sore throat".
According to the ZOE study's most up-to-date data, approximately 0.3 per cent of Brits are currently suffering from a cold while only 0.1 per cent are fighting Covid. This is a significantly lower figure than the ones seen two years ago.
