Perhaps you think you may have coronavirus. The Center for Disease Control reports this list of symptoms for novel corona virus. The first three symptoms are kind of generic.
1 - Fever - over 100 degrees. taken in the afternoon when human body temperature is usually at maximum.
2 - Cough - a cough that you can feel in your chest.
3 - Short of breath, lack of vitality.
4 - New confusion or inability to arouse (not sure what this means)
5 - Bluish lips or face
one more symptom, not yet on the official list
6 - Your sense of smell isn't working.
You can't smell stuff the New York Times reported. "Anosmia, the loss of sense of smell, and ageusia, an accompanying
diminished sense of taste, have emerged as peculiar telltale signs of
Covid-19, the disease caused by the coronavirus, and possible markers of
infection." That may be the unique identifying symptom of COVID19.
Younger people are not immune
Update (March 25 2020): More young people in the US are being hospitalized with COVID19. 38% are between the ages of 20 and 54 years. See https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/69/wr/mm6912e2.htm
Be well.
