The recently discovered SARS-CoV2 virus produces a influenza like illness named Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). The usual presentation is with upper/lower respiratory tract symptoms and rarely gastrointestinal symptoms. Although some of the clinical features of this novel disease like fever, dry cough, and shortness of breath have been well documented in literature, we report hitherto infrequently reported clinical features of this disease, namely Anosmia and Ageusia.
最近发现的严重急性呼吸综合征冠状病毒2型(SARS-CoV2)病毒引发了一种类似流感的疾病,名为2019冠状病毒病(COVID-19)。其常见症状为上/下呼吸道症状,胃肠道症状较为少见。尽管这种新型疾病的一些临床特征,如发热、干咳和呼吸急促等,已在文献中得到充分记载,但我们报告了该疾病迄今较少报道的临床特征,即嗅觉丧失和味觉丧失。
