JawaPos.com One of the unusual symptoms of Covid-19 if you are infected with the Omicron variant is excessive sweating or drenching at night. A number of patients told the story.

Reported from New York Post, Saturday (25/12), a doctor at the UK National Health Service dr. Amir Khan describes the symptoms that distinguish Omicron from other variants. Some of the symptoms that differentiate the Omicron variant from the common cold and even other strains of Covid-19. One of them was drenched in night sweat.

“Dream drenched night sweats where you might have to get up and change your clothes,” reports The Sun.

“Other symptoms of Omicron are an itchy throat instead of sore throat, dry cough, extreme tiredness, and mild muscle aches,” Khan told ITV’s Lorraine.

He asked everyone to stay alert for these symptoms. People with these symptoms should be tested.
