Covid-19: These symptoms sound like you may have Covid-19 (fever, cough, fatigue). Use Acetaminophen for pain and sore throat, drink lots of warm or cool soothing fluids, rest, and isolate from others so that you don't spread the virus. See a Dr for trouble breathing, persistent chest pain, new confusion, lethargy. A test may confirm the diagnosis, but treatment won't change.

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. The only way to know for sure is to get tested. Please quarantine for now.
