A member asked:
My father who is 70 yrs old is experiencing fever since last night from 37.5 to 38 c. he was also having headache. he has been taking panadox. can you please advise if we should admit him to hospital to check or quarantine himself in his house first?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Let doc know: Let his doc, GP or PCP know so that he or she can further coordinate based on his current symptoms, comorbidities and treatment. Ideally he should test and quarantine and if symptoms worsening taking him to the hospital would be advisable, specifically respiratory symptoms. His doc would be in best position to coordinate locally.
