Named the symptoms that should alert for SARS in the elderly

Nadezhda Runikhina, chief freelance geriatrician of the Moscow Health Department, spoke about the symptoms of SARS, which should alert people over 70 years of age. It is reported by RIA Novosti.

“If a patient older than 70 develops pathological drowsiness, confusion, refusal to eat, severe weakness, the person stops caring for himself, moves, he falls, this is a cause for serious concern,” the doctor said.

Also, with ARVI, additional symptoms such as headache, chest pain, unstable blood pressure, and unstable blood sugar should alert.

According to Runkhina, in situations that do not cause concern, it is enough to contact the doctor on duty without an appointment at any clinic or for remote audio consultation.

Earlier, the Moscow headquarters told how to apply for sick leave for SARS, COVID and contact persons.
