Isolate yourself in a room especially the first 7 days because during this time a patient is most infections. Keep the room ventilated and wear a high quality mask. Do not travel. Eat small healthy meals frequentely to fight the virus.

I am traveling to Nagpur on 9th September, and my second vaccine dose is scheduled for 28th August. Since Maharashtra requires a negative RTPCR test for entry, I plan to take the RTPCR test on 7th September. Will my RTPCR report show positive because I took the vaccine dose on 28th August, or will it be negative?

My family tested positive for COVID 19. My father and mother RTPCR reports show high viral load, my report shows low viral load, and the other family members reports indicate mild COVID. Could you please suggest treatment or prescription for us? We need guidance on what to do next.

I am having rashes on my skin, mainly on the neck, thighs, and underarms. I do not have fever, cold, cough, or any other symptom of COVID. Can skin rashes be the only symptom, and should I test for COVID? I already had COVID 6 months ago. It was mild, and I was isolated at home. Please let me know if you have an answer to the above query. Thanks in advance.
