Can this be covid

2020-07-11 21:40:22
I went to dentist today for emergency treatment. Now, suddenly am getting the urge to cough. Also, I am feeling as though there is cough or something like that in my throat. Could it be covid ? The doc was followed all process, face shield, air purifies, sanitisation, temp check. The doc confirmed from his side that he has not seen any patient in a month and I need not be worried. But I am not sure what I should do about how I am feeling. Pls. Help
