I'm really worried because my husband tested positive for COVID two weeks ago. He went into home quarantine right away and also had a CT scan done of his chest. Right now, he only has a cough and some congestion. There's no fever or trouble breathing so far. Is there something specific I should be doing or looking out for to make sure he's handling it okay?
