Given that there are such a wide range of symptoms and that symptoms can present differently in children, it seems strange that government are sticking to just three. Also, do some people "lie" about the symptoms they've got in order to get a test if they have other symptoms? I can see why people would do this, but it probably then skews the data for symptoms too. Is it a testing capacity thing? A not wanting to know full numbers of cases thing? It seems sensible to me to increase testing capacity and include other symptoms especially with schools returning, the drive to go back to work even if you can work effectively from home and winter etc.
