Continue to monitor: Stay home, monitor your temperature and self isolate. Your COPD is a risk factor for complications due to COVID 19. If you develop worsening cough, shortness of breath or fever of 100.4 or higher, please ask your PCP for a screening test. Watch for sudden changes and worsening and if these occur, please see the Emergency room.
