==Overview==
==Overview==
Coronavirus infections are not usually diagnosed due to the mild, [[self-limiting]] nature of the disease.
The history of coronavirus [[infection]] includes exposure to an [[Infection|infected]] animal or human. [[Patient|Patients]] report [[flu]] like [[Symptom|symptoms]] in the initial stages. [[Infection|Infected]] people can also report [[upper respiratory]] [[Symptom|symptoms]]. Common [[Symptom|symptoms]] of coronavirus [[infection]] include [[fever]], [[cough]], and [[Dyspnea|shortness of breath]]. The [[incubation period]] can vary depending on the [[infection]]. The [[mean]] [[incubation period]] for [[2019-nCoV|SARS-CoV-2]] has been set to be 5.2 days.
