Don't know: Suspicion for COVID 19 is higher with at least 2 of these sx’s: temp of at least 99.6, Cough, Shortness of breath, Chills, Shivering, Muscle pain, Headache, Sore throat or new loss of taste or smell. Testing can differentiate the two.

Get tested: A nasal swab or blood sample will give you the results you need. Get tested immediately so you wont infect anyone else if you have COVID-19.
