Anyone else seeing sneezing with Delta?

Published

Cases I previously would have sworn were just allergies are now regularly testing positive with complaints of sneezing, sore throat, no fever. Eek....

I believe we've had some students test positive who were presenting with runny noses.

I've seen positive cases with just minor sore throat. So much so that when my own (usual) fall allergy symptoms started last week I got tested. Was negative, thankfully.

Me too! A lot of just sneezing/runny noses are coming back positive. But I have also been seeing a lot more fevers than last year as well.

I am in Texas. I am seeing either fever and sore throat or they are Asymptomatic.

Last year I had a few with mild sore throat or runny nose, no other symptoms.

Signs & symptoms have been all over the place from asymptomatic, stomach ache, sore throat/'lump in throat' feeling (with throat & tonsils pink, clear, no swelling), chills or body aches with no vs changes, and the typical fever, cough, sob.  Our district follows a '1 major or 2 minor symptoms' protocol.  Many students aren't meeting those criteria to be sent home, but I am considering calling parents anyway & giving them the option to pick up.  However, that could bring on a whole new set of problems.

Same in South Florida.....although a simple headache is the only indication many times

I'm seeing cold symptoms with those that are vaccinated.
