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?

I've been having a fever for the last couple of days. I've been taking medicine, but at night, when the fever spikes, I take Meftal Forte, and then I start sweating a lot, and the fever comes down. Today's my second day, and I'm feeling better than yesterday. Should I consider getting a dengue test, or is it just a viral fever?

no need for dengue test
