Assume covid.: You should consider yourself as having Covid-19 until you can be tested. Wear a mask, wash hands frequently, drinks lots of liquids and follow up with your PCP. You should consider you are self quarantined until your are cleared.

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.
