| | *Other symptoms include [[sore throat]], [[coryza]], [[sputum]] production, [[dizziness]], [[nausea]] and [[vomiting]], [[diarrhea]], and [[abdominal pain]]. |
| | *Atypical presentations, such afebrile mild respiratory illnesses with [[diarrhea]] preceding the development of pneumonia, have been reported. |
