Comments: COVID-19 can be associated with bad headaches, lasting literally for weeks. If intermittent, seems to be the usual pattern, but if becomes constant or associated with visual loss, nausea and vomiting, high fever, imbalance, you need to contact your doctor. Of significance, Plaquenil was thought initially to be of value for viral control, and the Plavix should protect against added problems.
