According to the RKI in Germany: "Insgesamt litten 56 Prozent der Erkrankten unter Husten, 39 Prozent unter Fieber und 32 Prozent unter Schnupfen. Bei 1,6 Prozent der Erkrankten sei es zu einer Lungenentzündung gekommen." (56 % cough, 39 fever, 32 runny nose, 1.6 lung inflam.)
Good visual for why shortness of breath is sometimes suggested as a means for discerning flu from COVID-19. (Unfortunately, it's also a very common psychosomatic symptom associated with anxiety, so try to keep a level head about it.)https://twitter.com/PopSci/status/1237750527166996481 …

If this is true, I could have been running around with this for weeks now. All I have is a runny nose.

Cool chart. Personally, I'd recommend if you're sick, you should isolate until you can confirm what you have, as a precaution. For the people that might use this to think they don't have COVID and go outside.

Do you think it's general shortness of breath or when exercising? I would think that you'd always be have trouble breathing with a stuffy nose.

It's also associated with getting way-less-exercise than normal, as in times of quarantine.

The visual would be improved by adding an explanation of blanks (e.g., sneezing for C19 & flu). Does blank mean less than rare, i.e., never? Does it mean unknown?

My understanding is that sneezing is essentially never caused by COVID-19. But it still does present in a *tiny* fraction of cases, simply because a small number of infected people also have a cold or allergies.
