Screen: The symptoms of COVID 19 may be variable, but are usually associated with temperature elevation min. 100.4 . If you have experienced temperature elevation, screening is suggested. A non COVID 19 illness is also certainly possible. If you develop worsening symptoms, please see you PCP. Influenza screening may be completed at the same time as COVID 19 screening. Rest, avoid contacts and drink flu
