James O'Brien revealed that he thinks he has got coronavirus - despite not having the symptoms mentioned by the government. The LBC presenter has been feeling rough for a few days - and noticed on Saturday morning that he had lost his sense of taste and smell, something that had recently been mentioned as one of the best indicators of Covid-19.
He also had a shortage of breath and a complete lack of appetite. He's managed to get through his radio shows from home in self-isolation before going back to bed.
Without testing however, he will not know whether he has got the disease, but felt duty-bound to speak about his experiences to tell his listeners what they might expect if they get ill.
Speaking on his LBC show, he said: "The original descriptions focussed very strongly upon a dry cough and a shortness of breath.
"But more and more people I've been speaking to, including a few who have been tested for it and found to have had it, the experience is not confined to those two symptoms. And the most obvious entry point is a loss of the sense of taste and smell."
