its more likely to be hayfever as the pollen count is high lately, I don`t suffer usually but my eyes feel very gritty today and runny
covid19 is more likely if you`re short of breath, got a very dry cough etc, not discounting what you say but the conjuncitivitis wouldn`t be one of my first concerns

hope you are ok at the moment Louise, take care

Hi paul. I'm really struggling at the moment, I know everyone is right now. It's a very strange time. I'm just constantly anxious and theres no escape. It's so scary. It seems so many things can be a symptom so I'm completely paranoid. Hoping the conjunctivitis could just be because my eyes were so itchy but I'm still really worried. Xx
