A member asked:
If you had novel coronavirus, how would you know when you need to go to the hospital? is it better to go earlier or wait to see if it passes?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Need hospital for: sustained chest pain, difficulty breathing or face/ lips turning blue. Agree with earlier response to do telemedicine first unless you require urgent care.
