Presence of the following clinical features were assessed: maculopapular rash, itching, edema, macular rash, enanthema, lymphadenopathy, arthralgia, conjunctival hyperemia, oropharyngeal pain, earache, nasal congestion, purpura, fever, vomiting, hepatomegaly, abdominal pain, nausea, anorexia, headache, taste alteration, bleeding, prostration, lightheadedness, chills, myalgia, dyspnea, low back pain, cough, coryza diarrhea, gingivorrhagia, sweating, petechiae, hoarseness, choluria, dysuria, photophobia, retro-orbital pain and epistaxis. These signs and symptoms were evaluated in the first medical visit by history and clinical examination recorded in structured case report forms. Data on signs and symptoms present on the first or second clinic visit within the first week of disease was collected.
Confirmatory diagnosis of infection for ZIKV, DENV and CHIKV was made by real time PCR test of blood or urine specimens obtained during the same time period [10 (link)]. Dual or triple co-infections were excluded from analysis. Other febrile illnesses (OFI) were diagnosed based on negatives PCR results for all circulating arbovirus. Patients included before 2015 and those who tested negative for ZIKV by RT-PCR were classified as Zika-negative.

Symptoms considered when determining disease duration were: abdominal pain, chest pain, sore throat, shortness of breath, fatigue, hoarse voice, delirium, diarrhea, skipped meals, fever, persistent cough, unusual muscle pains, loss of smell and headache.
Onset of disease was defined as the first day of reporting at least one symptom and a sum of symptoms being nonzero for more than 1 d.
Disease end was defined as the last day of symptom reporting before reporting as healthy for the next consecutive 7 d, or the last day of reporting with fewer than five symptoms before ceasing use of the app. For included participants who had ceased using the app and whose cumulative number of symptoms were fewer than five, disease end was considered as the last log.
Relapse was defined as two or more days of symptoms (minimum of one symptom) within a 7-d window after 1 week of healthy logging, if initial symptoms were temporally close to a positive swab test.
Long COVID was defined as symptoms that persisted for more than 4 weeks (28 d, LC28), more than 8 weeks (56 d, LC56) or more than 12 weeks (LC84) between symptom onset and end, while short duration was defined as an interval of less than 10 d between symptom onset and end, without a subsequent relapse (short COVID).

The questionnaire first asked about any symptoms experienced in the past three months: ‘In the last 3 months have you had the following’ (list of 17 symptoms, each with yes/no options). The cancer ‘alarm’ symptoms were from the Cancer Awareness Measure (CAM), which was based on warning signs from Cancer Research UK's website [6] , [20] and included: unexplained cough or hoarseness, persistent change in bowel habits, persistent unexplained pain, persistent change in bladder habits, unexplained lump, a change in the appearance of a mole, a sore that does not heal, unexplained bleeding, unexplained weight loss or persistent difficulty swallowing. Persistent was defined broadly as ‘doesn't go away’. Several additional symptoms from the Physical Health Questionnaire [21] (link), of varying level of seriousness, were included to mask the cancer context including headache, shortness of breath, chest pain, feeling tired or having low energy, dizziness, and feeling your heart pound or race. Sore throat was included as a common symptom. For simplicity we refer to these as ‘non-alarm’ symptoms.
If participants responded ‘yes’ to having experienced any symptom, they were asked; ‘What do you think caused it’ in an open response item; from which we coded mentions of cancer as a possible cause. As another indicator of implicit recognition that cancer could be involved, we also asked respondents whether they had been concerned that the symptom might be ‘serious’; with responses on a 5 point Likert scale from ‘not at all’ to ‘extremely’. Ratings of 4 or 5 indicated higher perceived seriousness. Finally, respondents were asked if they had consulted a doctor about the symptom (Yes/No).

The physician (NK) administered the GIS questionnaire to the patients before diagnostic evaluation. The questionnaire is comprised of 9 items including 5 questions on GERD symptoms (chest pain, heartburn, acid regurgitation, epigastric pain and hoarseness) and 4 questions on QOL. The QOL questions are these: (1) how often have you had difficulty in getting a good sleep because of heartburn or acid reflux?, (2) how often have your symptoms prevented you from eating or drinking any of the foods you like?, (3) how frequently have your symptoms kept you from being fully productive in your job or daily activities? and (4) how often do you take additional unprescribed medication other than what the physician told you to take? A modified 5-point Likert scale was utilized in GIS questionnaire to assess the detailed frequency of the symptoms (1, daily; 2, 3-4 times per week; 3, 1-2 times per week; 4, 1-2 times per month; 5, never). The factors which might be related to GERD were also analyzed i.e., (1) the presence of diabetes mellitus or hypertension, (2) alcohol consumption, (3) smoking and (4) psychiatric treatment or psychopharmacotherapy. Body mass index (BMI) and biochemical test results, including cholesterol, triglycerides, high density lipoprotein (HDL) and low density lipoprotein (LDL) levels were recorded by research assistants.

The COVIDx Study was a prospective, comparative, real world trial of SAMBA II SARS-CoV-2 point of care testing compared to the standard lab RT-PCR test in participants admitted to Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (CUH) with a possible diagnosis of COVID-19 (Data S1). CUH is a 1200-bed hospital providing secondary care to a population of 580,000 people in Cambridge and the surrounding area, as well as tertiary referral services to the East of England.
Recruitment started two weeks into the national lockdown implemented by the UK government in response to the pandemic. Eligible consecutive participants were recruited during 12-hour day shifts over a duration of 4 weeks from the 6th of April 2020 to the 2nd of May 2020. The prevalence of PCR positive SARS-CoV-2 infection among in-hospital patients in CUH decreased over the course of the study from 14.8% to 3.1% from week 1 to week 4 of the study. This reflected the background prevalence in Cambridgeshire which decreased from 17.9 per 100 000 population to 14.6 per 100 000 population in weeks 1 to 4 of the study27 . We recruited adults (> 16 years old) presenting to the emergency department or acute medical assessment unit as a possible case of COVID-19 infection. This included participants who met the Public Heath England (PHE) definition of a possible COVID-19 case: any individual requiring hospital admission and has any of: clinical or radiological evidence of pneumonia, or acute respiratory distress syndrome, or an influenza like illness (history of fever and at least one of the following respiratory symptoms, which must be of acute onset- persistent cough (with or without sputum), hoarseness, nasal discharge or congestion, shortness of breath, sore throat, wheezing, sneezing. This definition was later expanded to include any adult requiring hospital admission and who was symptomatic of SARS-nCOV2 infection, demonstrated by clinical or radiological findings. This was done due to the changing landscape of the COVID-19 epidemic and emergence of new symptoms such as anosmia and diarrhea. This protocol amendment was applied after 77% of participants had been enrolled. The inclusion criteria were later expanded to include any adult requiring hospital admission and who was symptomatic of SARS-CoV-2 infection, demonstrated by clinical or radiological findings. This was done due to the changing landscape of the COVID-19 epidemic and emergence of new symptoms such as anosmia and diarrhea. Exclusion criteria included not having the standard lab RT-PCR test applied within an 18-hour window of SAMBA II SARS-CoV-2 test and those unwilling or unable to comply with study swabbing procedures.

The LCQ consists of 19 items that cover a physical (8 items), mental (7 items), and social (4 items) domains. The physical condition of the patient is inquired through items 1, 2, 3, 9, 10, 11, 14, and 15 and refers to symptoms that can be associated with cough, including abdominal/chest pain, the production of sputum, fatigue, sleep disorders, hoarseness and changed performance. In addition, certain situations that trigger the cough are recorded. Items 4, 5, 6, 12, 13, 16, and 17 deal with mental aspects: the ability to control the cough reflex and the emotions associated with the symptoms (fears, embarrassment, discouragement, frustration, and worry) play a role in the question selection. Social effects are covered by questions 7, 8, 18, and 19. In this case, the influence of cough symptoms on everyday situations, relationships with family members and on enjoyment of life is asked [27 (link)].
The 3 domains are evenly distributed across the entire questionnaire. Scores are calculated as a mean of each domain and the total score is calculated by adding every domain score [27 (link)].

The Sehhaty application was launched under the umbrella of digital transformation initiatives by the Saudi MOH aiming to provide access to several healthcare services for individuals in the Kingdom. These services included consultations, PCR testing for SARS-CoV-2, booking COVID-19 vaccine appointments, and reporting COVID-19 vaccines side-effects through the option of manual entering and/or drop box option selection (16 ). Indeed, the Sehhaty application offers a checkbox option to report symptoms for the received vaccine. The following symptoms were available for users to select from in the following order: injection site itching, wheezing, fatigue, hoarseness, low fever, anxiety, fever above or below 39°C, heartburn, injection site swelling, headache, loss of consciousness, nausea, injection site redness, injection site pain, itchiness other than injection site, seizure, dizziness, difficulty or shortness of breath, sleep disruption, swelling of lips, face, and throat, and intensive care unit (ICU) admission. The study participants were provided with a checkbox list that included all of the aforementioned side-effects and were given the option to select from the list if they experienced any of them. Another helpful feature was the registration of the date and the start of symptoms, which allowed for filtering and limiting the studied side-effects to be within a window of 14 days post-vaccination (7 (link)). Participants' demographics data were collected and included: age, gender, nationality, region, COVID-19 vaccine type, the number of vaccine doses, date of vaccination, and date of ICU admission.

The study included all vaccinated female and male individuals in Saudi Arabia of any ethnicity, who were 12–96 years of age and spontaneously self-reported their side-effects through the Sehhaty app after receiving at least one dose of the three available COVID-19 vaccines: Pfizer–BioNTech (BNT162b2), Oxford–AstraZeneca (ChAdOx1-S), and/or Moderna (mRNA-1273) within 14 days of receiving COVID-19 vaccination over the period from 17th December 2020 to 31st December 2021 (7 (link)). The ICU records were considered post vaccine events if they happened within 14 days post COVID-19 vaccination. The exclusion criteria entailed individuals with wrong or missing data entry and/or misidentified unique IDs, individuals who are under 12 years or above 96 years old, those who did not receive COVID-19 vaccination, or who received COVID-19 vaccines other than Pfizer–BioNTech, Oxford–AstraZeneca or Moderna vaccines, and those who reported their side-effects outside of the 14-day window. We excluded those with pre-existing comorbidities and/or autoimmune diseases, as they could confound the results of the self-reported vaccines adverse events. The primary objective was to determine the patterns of minor side-effects: injection site (itchiness, pain, reaction, redness, swelling, and other), anxiety, dizziness, fever above or below 39°C, headache, hoarseness, itchiness other than injection site, loss of consciousness, nausea, heartburn, sleep disruption, and fatigue. In addition, we examined the pattern of reported major COVID-19 vaccine side-effects: seizures, shortness of breath, wheezing, swelling of lips, face, and throat, ICU admission, and loss of consciousness. The AEs were classified as local, systemic, or allergic, or as mild or moderate.
