Spot the difference competition – C19 symptoms and flu symptoms

One of my favourite “fact checkers”, Dr Vernon Coleman has produced two lists that compare the symptoms of C19 and the “common or garden” flu.

From here:

Shock: Scientists Prove Clear Differences between Covid and Flu | Dr Vernon Coleman

“There is at last solid evidence that covid is completely different to the flu.

Below, to prove the point I have reproduced the official list of common symptoms associated with the new, scary variant of covid. And to help you spot the differences I’ve also listed the common symptoms associated with the flu. Please compare these lists very carefully so that you, like the world’s scientists, will be able to identify the two completely different diseases.”

In Dr Coleman’s words:

“This information is brought to you as a public service announcement. Please print out these two lists and stick them on noticeboards everywhere – especially at your doctor’s surgery and local hospital. Medical and nursing staff will be grateful to you for your help.”

The expression “dripping with sarcasm” springs to mind!
