Symptom Profiles of a Convenience Sample of Patients with COVID-19 — United States, January–April 2020	2020-07-17		.txt	text/plain	2906	162	54	Symptoms also were examined by date of onset relative to March 8, 2020 , when CDC released a Health Alert Network (HAN) notification giving updated guidance that COVID-19 testing be performed based on clinical judgment, thus widening testing eligibility to include persons with milder illness or atypical symptoms (3) . That definition requires meeting one or more of three sets of criteria: 1) cough, shortness of breath, or difficulty breathing; 2) at least two of the following symptoms: fever (measured or subjective), chills, rigors, † myalgia, headache, sore throat, or new changes in smell or taste; or 3) severe respiratory illness with either clinical or radiographic evidence of pneumonia or acute respiratory distress syndrome, without an alternative more likely diagnosis. Fever, cough, or shortness of breath were commonly reported among a convenience sample of U.S. COVID-19 patients with symptom onset during January-April and a range of illness severity; gastrointestinal symptoms and other symptoms, such as chills, myalgia, headache, and fatigue, also were commonly reported.	./cache/cord-336076-go5tk6ni.txt	./txt/cord-336076-go5tk6ni.txt
