This task involves identifying personal mentions of COVID-19 symptoms tweets. It is a three-way classification problem, requiring participants to distinguish personal symptom mentions (self-reports) from other mentions such as symptoms reported by others (non-personal reports) and references to external sources (literature/news mentions).
The annotated set of tweets for this task is a set of manually curated Spanish-native language tweets.
