A member asked:
Is there any way to know for sure that you have covid19 without doing a test?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No other way: Testing is the only way . You look either for antigen or antibody of the virus to make sure you have it. When you look for antigen you look for the genetic material of this RNA virus.
