Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) is a respiratory disease, while allergies are an immune response to an allergen. However, these two conditions share many of the same symptoms:

In Georgia, allergy season can start as early as January and linger into November thanks to our warmer climate. The following signs that we at Center for Allergy and Asthma of Georgia typically see in our allergy patients that are not commonly present in coronavirus patients:

• Itchy, watery, or red eyes.
• Coughing and wheezing.
