"Having a sore throat is very annoying, as is a cough."

Hi all

Do you mind checking if this sentence is correct?

"Having a sore throat is very annoying, as is a cough." or should I write instead "Having a sore throat is very annoying, as is having a cough."?


Thank you.

Best regards

The parallelism in the second sentence is better. Of course, you can also say "A sore throat is annoying, as is a cough".
