Good morning- "The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention added six symptoms of the novel coronavirus to its list, suggesting health experts are learning more about the growing number of ways physicians see the virus affecting patients." WP. This virus has shown how smart it is. It's a tough and deadly virus and wants only to survive and replicate itself. I'm wondering if any of you who have or had COVID-19 had any of these symptoms?
The symptoms, which the CDC reports could appear two to 14 days after exposure to the virus, are:

Chills
Repeated shaking with chills
Muscle pain
Headache
Sore throat
New loss of taste or smell

@merpreb Thanks for the update.
Oh, no, more symptoms? This virus is the most heinous virus I think there has ever been. The thought of possibly contracting it is truly frightening, and not just because of our ages, although that does make the symptoms worse. Even younger, healthy people have had terrible symptoms and some have not made it.
Some of these symptoms such as loss of sense of taste and smell, sore throat and muscle pain have been noted for a while, but it's always good to keep them in the public awareness. While Chris Cuomo was battling it and reporting from his home he kept us pretty up to date on his symptoms, which was great. He is finally looking better but I have not heard any comments on how his wife is doing, she caught it after he did.
