I heard a report in an interview on TV about digestive issues - diarrhea.

@johnbishop @merpreb I also read an article about digestive issues yesterday. It said that people who start with digestive issues do not seek care as soon as others because very few realize that can be a sign of COVID-19.

@johnbishop- The one thing that irritates me about this report is its use of statistics. They are for only special groups of people and do not cover everyone who has the virus. And this virus is so fluid that in a split second the percentages can change.

@johnbishop Well, that convinces me that my daughter's test for Covid-19 was a "false negative" as she suspected - she has every syptom right down the line including this! I'm sure she'll be in touch with her work and/or her pulmonologist for retesting once she sees this. But she reported less respiratory distress this morning, so we're hopeful she is turning the corner.
