Guys, let's be careful.

The top symptom that could be Covid is a sore throat, according to data from 17,500 people who said they had tested positive for the virus this week.

The next most common ones reported were headache, blocked nose and cough.

A high temperature or fever and loss of smell or taste - ones which the NHS list high up as likely Covid symptoms - were far less common.

A hoarse voice, sneezing, tiredness, muscle aches and dizziness scored higher.

Sore throat - reported by 58%
Headache - 49%
