Treat symptoms as you would during an influenza infection. Avoid contact and sell isolate. Continue to monitor breathing and temperature. If you experience shortness of breath, respiratory difficulty, please see the Emergency room. You should feel better in 3 weeks, and if you experience prolonged symptoms, please let your physician know.
