Treatment of symptom: Testing does not change the treatment of Covid-19. If you have symptoms, you should self-isolate, drink lots of fluids, rest, and use symptom relief: pain relievers for body aches, fever reducers for fever, decongestant/cough suppressant for upper respiratory symptoms. Seek medical attention for difficulty breathing, blue lips, persistent chest pain, new onset confusion and lethargy

Agree with Drs F&K: Viral infections, other than Covid-19 virus can have similar symptoms. To be safe and keep your contacts safe follow the guidelines for Covod-19. Covid-19: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/index.html Wish you good health!
