This could be an unknown symptom of the Coronavirus.

Chelsea Earnest, a nurse who works at the Life Care Center in Kirkland, Washington, told CNN that all the patients affected by the Coronavirus had a common symptom, they had a kind of rash in the area around their eyes.

Despite symptoms such as coughing, breathing difficulties, Chelsea said the “patients had red-eyed faces”. “The white eye part is not red, but they have one as a shadow in the outer area of the eye,” she explained.

The American Academy of Oftamology suggested that there are some reports that Avid-19 could lead to conjudices which causes frying in the area of the eyes and around them.

Eye problems are not on the list of symptoms circulated by the World Health Organization and the American Center for Disease Control and Prevention, although the list is not comprehensive.

We had patients who only had red eyes and no other symptoms,” added Ernest. “After we went to the hospital, some passed away. ”

In recent days other symptoms are being taken into account, including the problem of smelling or losing food. /Anabelle
