Where the Delta variant differs to classic coronavirus symptoms is that they are more similar to cold and flu-like symptoms, with many finding themselves testing positive as a result saying they felt slightly off or unwell rather than experiencing a sudden onset of symptoms such as a loss or change in taste or smell. The most common symptoms for coronavirus on the whole, according to the NHS, are a new, continuous cough, high temperature and a loss or change in taste or smell. However, symptoms for the delta variant also include headaches, runny noses, sore throats and fever. The advice remains very much the same – with those feeling unwell advised to order a PCR test if they are experiencing any of the signs of coronavirus and its latest variant.
