Patients infected with novel coronavirus may experience gastrointestinal distress, vomiting, and diarrhea. However, not all diarrhea is caused by novel coronavirus infection. Therefore, when diarrhea occurs, do not be overly nervous, but first isolate yourself for 14 days (the general incubation period of novel coronavirus is 14 days), during which time observe yourself for other typical symptoms of novel coronavirus, and if you develop shortness of breath, dyspnea, or high fever, please seek medical attention promptly. If no other abnormalities are found after 14 days, the possibility of infection by novel coronavirus is basically excluded.
