Isolate : You should assume you have Covid & isolate for 10 days. Your children should quarantine for 14 days from any exposure or 10 days from illness if they get sick. You may want to get tested which may change these times. Please contact your doctor to discuss further, especially if you are becoming more ill.

COVID 19 concerns: Rest, hydrate, quarantine & eat healthfully. Consider use of acetaminophen, saline for nasal irrigation, decongestant or cough syrup. Naprosyn is a good choice if NSAID’s are used. Get urgent care for difficulty breathing, blue lips or face, marked persistent chest pain/ pressure or new onset confusion. In ZA, a medical provider is needed for testing referral.
