What Is A Fever For Covid-19? [Solved]
Well, if you’ve been exposed to the virus, watch out for symptoms that could show up any time between 2 and 14 days later. You might have COVID-19 if you’re running a fever of 99.9F or higher, or feeling chills, plus coughing.
Symptoms: Common symptoms of COVID-19 include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and fatigue. Other less common symptoms may include sore throat, headache, loss of taste or smell, body aches, congestion or runny nose, nausea or vomiting and diarrhea.
Diagnosis: A diagnosis of COVID-19 is typically made based on a combination of clinical signs and symptoms as well as laboratory tests such as PCR testing for the virus itself.
Treatment: Treatment for COVID-19 is largely supportive in nature and includes rest and hydration to help manage the symptoms while the body fights off the infection on its own. In some cases antiviral medications may be used to help reduce the severity of illness or shorten its duration.
Prevention: The best way to prevent infection with COVID-19 is to practice good hand hygiene by washing your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds or using an alcohol-based hand sanitizer when soap and water are not available; avoiding close contact with people who are sick; avoiding touching your eyes, nose and mouth; covering your mouth when you cough or sneeze; wearing a face mask in public settings where social distancing measures are difficult to maintain; cleaning frequently touched surfaces regularly; staying home if you are feeling unwell; getting vaccinated against other illnesses that can cause similar symptoms (such as influenza); and following local public health guidelines regarding travel
Fever is one of the most common symptoms of COVID-19. It usually starts out mild, but can get worse over time. If you have a fever, it’s important to take steps to reduce it and seek medical attention if necessary. Take ibuprofen or acetaminophen to help lower your temperature, and drink plenty of fluids. If your fever persists for more than three days or gets worse, call your doctor right away - don’t wait!
