The overall prevalence of GI symptoms in context of COVID-19, including nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, and diarrhea, is lower than estimated previously.10 It is important to note that the majority of studies were focused on hospitalized patients with COVID-19, and the prevalence of diarrhea in patients with mild symptoms who were not hospitalized is not known. Therefore, the reported prevalence rates may represent either an overestimate or underestimate. Information about the frequency and severity of diarrhea symptoms was inadequately reported in the majority of studies.
