4. Irritability
Young children are prone to getting irritated from time to time, especially when they are tired. This can make it difficult to notice that there is something wrong to begin with. If a child does appear to be particularly irritable, however, then you should try to watch them more closely.
If a child appears to have lost their appetite then it’s another sign that they may not be well. Older children and adults will often complain of a sensation of generally being unwell. A sore throat can also be a symptom of the disease, and this can also be difficult to identify in young children.
