Flu like symptoms: If you are experiencing flu like symptoms, please stay home and arrange a flu and COVID 19 screening test. The test may convert from negative to positive, depending on when the testing was completed during the course of the illness. Watch for signs of fever, cough and worsening shortness of breath.

Eval: Recommend medical assessment again since symptoms are worsening. Can't say what your diagnosis is.I don't know what is required in Zambia to get tested for COVID 19 but the medical provider will know.
