ZA or USA?: Get emergency care for difficulty breathing, blue lips or face or new-onset of confusion. My understanding is that in South Africa- one needs to consult with a medical provider who will then make the determination about whether they will make a COVID 19 testing referral or not.Rest, hydration, acetaminophen, decongestant, cough med & nasal saline irrigation may help mild symptoms.
