The symptoms may be consistent with COVID 19, another viral illness or Strep for example. Discuss supportive care such as fluids, a probiotic, rest and fever control with your Pediatrician. Observe for changes in breathing, worsening cough and fever. If these symptoms occur, please see acute care. COVID 19 testing may be arranged locally.
