R/O COVID 19: There could be an overlying infection. I recommend a medical consultation to help sort this out. If in Sough Africa a medical provider would need to make referral for testing. Suspicion for COVID 19 is higher if you have at least 2 of these symptoms: temp of at least 99.6, Cough, Shortness of breath, Chills, Shivering, Muscle pain, Headache, Sore throat or new loss of taste or smell.
