COVID testing: With a sore throat and headache, testing for COVID is reasonable. In addition, with your concerns for the children in your care, it is best to establish YES Covid or NO Covid. Be sure to continue social distancing, mask wearing and frequent handwashing, as well as quarantining until the test results are back.

See below: Covid-19: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/index.html Please contact your doctor by phone for further evaluation and mechanism for testing in your area. Wear a mask, stay away from others, practice hand hygiene. Be sure to get tested, if you get symptoms. If you develop breathing difficulty, go to the nearest hospital, immediately. Wish you good health.
