This is how we distinguish between a “Corona” headache and a normal one

A genetic epidemiologist at King's College London, Timothy Specter, said that the vast majority of "Corona" patients suffer from moderate to severe headache pain that lasts from three to five days from the period of their infection with the Corona virus.

The scientist pointed out, that taking painkillers does not help in this case.

To distinguish between normal headaches and those caused by the Corona virus, he indicated that the latter is felt on both sides of the head, and it can be pulsating, sharp or pressing, and not in the forehead area as is common in a normal headache.
