Having had natural covid provides you with significant immunity to both original covid & the recent strains that will likely last for at least a year. It does not provide you with protection against seasonal flu or other respiratory viruses.

A test and self isolation is recommended. Discuss a Strep,Flu and COVID-19 screening test with your physician. Drink soothing fluids, rest and monitor temperature and breathing. Watch for shortness of breath.
