We have come to understand that Covid-19 is here for good just like influenza, and it will continue to have mutating properties with different lifespans. Typical symptoms include runny nose, lingering cough, severe headaches with or without fluctuating blood pressure, loss of your sense of smell and or taste.

What new symptoms are attached to the surging new Covid-19 strain JN.1?

According to a new article published by Newsweek just over this past weekend, about 1/10 new Covid-19 sufferers are reporting major anxiety or worry. Also, even though fatigue is a known symptom, new patients are reporting a new version of tiredness.

Studies have shown that not just long Covid-19 patients have been dealing with increased exhaustion and depression. Some of it is physical because of the infection, but for others the sheer stress of living this "New normal," is really taking its toll.

What can you do to avoid these new potential Covid-19 symptoms?

Rest and recovery are so important, and it is paramount that you get yourself back to 100% before expecting your body to handle all the daily expectations you have for yourself.
