Specializes in Pediatric Allergy and Asthma

Viral/ COVID-19: Your children may have a non COVID-19 illness which should begin to improve with rest and fluids. Treat fever with Tylenol and avoid dehydration. Please see your pediatrician for worsening respiratory distress, fever and for COVID-19 testing. In the meantime please keep them self isolated and monitor for fever.
