Is post nasal drip and nasal congestion with runny nose that is constant allergies or covid-19?

If you have allergies and have a history of postnasal drip and nasal congestion/runny nose at certain times of the year, then a diagnosis of allergies would be appropriate. Since there are free Covid tests available, if you have any doubt, get tested. It could protect someone you love if you are positive and know to self isolate.

The symptoms described are unlikely to be from COVID 19. If you have had allergies before, it is important to keep hand hygiene serious to reduce chances of infection with COViD 19.
