COVID 19 : You all need to keep isolated. Don't leave your room unless you need medical help. Difficulties breathing is a concerning symptom a doctor should be evaluated by a doctor.

Wife may have COVID: Rest, hydrate, quarantine & eat healthfully. May use 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.
