Flu like symptoms: COVID 19 screening is suggested, stay home, self isolate until evaluated. The pulmonary bleeding must be evaluated, but if the nasal passage are inflamed, the source may be non pulmonary as well. Continue the medication, use Tylenol for fever, avoid Motrin until test negative (it has been associated with worsening in COVID 19). The chest radiograph indicates a possible pneumonia. ED for distress.
