Depends on employer: Returning to work depends on your employer’s guidelines. Some require a negative COVID test, while others ask that you return after 10 days of last fever/symptoms. Contact your supervisor or your Human Resources department and ask what your company’s policy is.

COVID concerns: I agree with Dr. Moscoso-agosto. If you had only this one symptom - it makes it less likely that this was COVID 19. COVID 19 Sx's may include fever, cough, feeling tired, shortness of breath, muscle aches, headache, sore throat, chills, chest pain, nasal congestion, loss of taste or smell, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea. Any additional symptoms.
