We’ve got a covid scare going on in my town right now. It’s not from covid, but from some head cold from hell. It’s starting to overwhelm the local clinics. I caught it, and I almost never get colds. It’s brutal, and has the same symptoms as covid. I went to the doctor and got tested, even though I had the J&J. It’s so widespread the clinics are starting to run out of covid tests. I’m going on day 8 with it now, but getting better. For just being a head cold, it’s brutal.
Covid is a respiratory disease. Your symptoms do not preclude covid.
