The disease outbreak has already left 56 dead and more than 2,000 infected throughout the country.

Doctors at Wuhan University Hospital, in the Chinese province of Hubei, warned on Friday that the first symptoms of the coronavirus, called 2019-nCoV, are not necessarily similar to those of a cold or flu, as previously reported.

The disease can start manifesting even with problems in the digestive or nervous system, Xinhua reports.

Diarrhea, nausea, headache, fatigue and problems with the mentioned systems were indicated by Chinese doctors as the first signs of the coronavirus in many patients.

The specialists comment that these symptoms complicate the diagnosis and cause a greater diffusion of the disease that, according to the latest balance, has left 56 dead and more than 2,000 infected in China. In addition, cases of this disease were confirmed in countries such as Thailand, Australia, Singapore, France, Malaysia, Japan, South Korea, USA, Vietnam and Nepal.
