TRIBUNNEWS.COM – Researchers in London, UK uncover 20 main symptoms of the Omicron . variant Covid-19 and how long the symptoms last.

The latest information reveals the top five symptoms listed on the app, namely runny nose, headache, fatigue, sneezing and sore throat.

Other symptoms in the top 20 that were most commonly reported were hoarseness, chills, brain fog, feeling dizzy, lack of appetite and feeling sad.
