Symptomatic treatmen: Most testing sites require a Dr referral. You can get one through a telemedicine visit. Symptoms of Covid include: fever, cough, headache, muscle aches, fatigue, diarrhea, nasal congestion, loss of taste/smell. Treatment is symptomatic: Acetaminophen for pain/fever, nasal decongestants, cough suppressants, lots of rest and fluids, esp electrolytes. See a Dr for difficulty breathing.
