Covid OR Non-Covid

2021-12-21 16:46:18
Hi. Since today afternoon .. I started coughing and.. there's a little cold. During evening.. sore throat.. and trying to clear the throat. No fever , no body pain , no weakness. I visited my general physician.. she said it's viral.. However , i came in close contact with someone who had cold.. but that person is doing fine now. Do I need to do the test ?? Please suggest. Please note - I am fully vaccinated and also i have battled covid earlier.
