Testing: Bronchitis & COVID sx’s can overlap & include: sore throat, cough, shortness of breath, headaches, fatigue, body aches, soreness due to coughing, nasal congestion and fever. With Bronchitis the fever is usually below 101 °F but temp is quite variable with COVID 19. Testing will help to differentiate between COVID 19 & other respiratory illnesses.
