COVID 19 concerns: This could of course be from a number of causes but COVID 19 is on that differential. It looks like you live in South Africa.My understanding is that in South Africa- one needs to consult with a medical provider who will make determination about whether to test for COVID 19 or not.

See below: Covid-19: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/index.html Please contact your doctor by phone for further evaluation and mechanism for testing in your area. Wear a mask, stay away from others, practice hand hygiene. Be sure to get tested, if you get symptoms. If you develop breathing difficulty, go to the nearest hospital, immediately. Wish you good health.
