What to do if you have symptoms of COVID, test positive or are exposed to COVID:
Symptoms of COVID include the following: Stuffy or runny nose, Cough, Fever, Body aches, Chills, Sore throat, Headache, Diarrhea, Nausea/vomiting, Tiredness, Difficulty Breathing, Chest pain/pressure, Confusion. Some people with COVID have only one symptom, some people don't have any symptoms, and some people have several symptoms. In all cases, getting tested is important because 1) you might need treatment and 2) you can pass the virus onto others.
.
If you test positive and have underlying medical problems, are 65 or older, or are
unvaccinated against COVID, call the clinic right away so that you can be evaluated
for treatments for COVID (both pill and IV).
.
If you tested positive for COVID and completed the recommended
isolation/quarantine period (10 days for most people or 20 days if your
immune system is suppressed or you had to be hospitalized due to
COVID), you do not typically need a negative test to end isolation/quarantine. COVID PCR tests can be positive for over 90 days after your infection.
