Temperature: You may have influenza infection or another viral infection. If you develop a fever, COVID 19 testing is recommended. Stay home, rest, drink fluids and monitor your temperature.

Should I get tested for COVID? My brother tested positive (we live together). I have been experiencing headache and flu-like symptoms (cough, congestion, malaise, tiredness). Took Adco-Dol for the headache, which makes it difficult to determine temp.
