Continue mask: Continue to wear a mask when outside of your home, use social distancing and keep surfaces and hands clean. When your Prednisone dosing is between 5 to 10 mg daily, this is a lower dose with less immune suppression. The reason for your treatment though is not clear. Watch for fever, chills, signs of flu like illness. Report illness to your PCP.
