How can i convince a friend with cold symptoms to talk to a doctor during the covid-19 pandemic?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
COVID 19: Some people avoid contacting their doctors due to fear that they will contract COVID 19 if they are seen in person. Let your friend know that many providers are using telemedicine. This is usually quite convenient.
