Nothing: The spiots in throat are part of the viral illness, as are the strange taste sensations you are experiencing. There is nothing you can do except let time fight the virus. You may get some relief gargling with salt water, or using a topical spray such as Chloraseptic Spray to diminish your symptoms. Keep well hydrated and keep quarantined.

COVID 19 infection: Agree with Dr. Maes. These symptoms may occur with viral infections. Consider warm saline gargles.

Agree with Dr. F: 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.
