Yes: Please self isolate, wear a mask and arrange locally for testing. You may have COVID 19 or another condition such as influenza or pneumonia. If the cough lingers, please have a chest image. Monitor your temperature and treat fever with Tylenol rather than Motrin.

If from South Africa, contact PCM who will assess & make determination about COVID 19 testing. USA – policies vary by state. State & local health departments/ providers make actual testin
