Like many other viral infections you can always develop a secondary bacterial infection during or after its initial course. I would schedule a re-visit to sort this out.

If you have a persistent fever, I agree that another cause may be present. Post COVID though a number of complications may occur and adult cases of MIS C have been reported. A blood test including white cell count and inflammatory markers may be indicated.

I have a fever that is on and off for the last 2 days. Are there any other symptoms that I can look for for COVID No cough No loss of smell or taste
I have been having allergies really bad this week. I have been taking Zyrtec and Mucinex D since last Sunday. Friday I added generic Flonase. I have not had any fever at all. Yesterday afternoon I noticed a loss of smell. I know there are reports of others saying theyve lost smell and taste while on Flonase. I also know that is a symptom of COVID. From what Ive read and heard, if this was COVID Id feel a lot worse and have fever. What are your thoughts? Loss of smell?
