Fever or chills
A cough

"This list does not include all possible symptoms. CDC will continue to update this list as we learn more about COVID-19," the website states.

The US federal department also warned: "Older adults and people who have severe underlying medical conditions like heart or lung disease or diabetes seem to be at higher risk for developing more serious complications from COVID-19 illness."

This comes as almost 10million people have been infected by the disease worldwide with nearly 500,000 deaths.
