The right reflexes to adopt at the first signs
If in doubt, consult a healthcare professional. An antigen or PCR test will remove any doubt. It’s not just about protecting yourself, but also protecting those at risk.
Some simple measures remain valid: wear a mask if you have symptoms, wash your hands thoroughly, ventilate rooms… And above all, don’t ignore extreme fatigue or a fever without an apparent cause. Prevention is better than cure.
Emergency: The signs that should alert you
In more serious cases, certain symptoms should trigger an immediate reaction:
Shortness of breath
Sudden difficulty breathing
Chest pain
Sudden loss of consciousness or confusion
In these cases, you should immediately dial 15. COVID can still cause serious complications, although they are less common.
Conclusion: A more discreet virus, but still present
COVID in 2025 doesn’t look the same… but it hasn’t said its last word. By paying attention to these more subtle signs, you can act in time and limit the risks to yourself and your loved ones. Let’s remain vigilant: just because the virus is quieter doesn’t mean we should stop listening to it.
