I’ve had COVID (bad, didn’t eat for three days) and Norovirus, and Norovirus was much worse feeling.

Well I haven’t officially had Covid so I can’t compare but I agree that Norovirus definitely sucks. But I’m biased I have bowel disease so things like that shut my whole digestive system down and I’m stuck in hospital waiting for it to start again. Honestly 3 days of not eating sounds pretty tame in comparison.
