Cloud Of Dust Rolls In, Mimics Coronavirus Symptoms

(San Antonio, TX) — Doctors are warning that the giant cloud of Sahara dust that’s drifting into Texas this week can cause symptoms similar to those of the coronavirus.

Chris Thompson, an Ear Nose and Throat doctor in San Antonio, says the dust will cause a lot of coughing, sneezing, and sore throats.

Dr. Thompson says the main difference is that coronavirus causes a fever, so when in doubt, take your temperature.
