The cardinal features of the novel Corona virus infection is High Fever with body and joint pain, along with sore throat and dry cough. Unless you have all this, you may only be having an allergic cough. Just take a good antihistamine and take plenty of hot fluids and maintain the Janta Curfew. JAI HIND!
