Should ideally go for covid in view of ongoing scenario. But also do get checked up on lines of dengue and malaria. It is very common in Dehradun area these days. For details discussion, please do consult online. He is diabetic. So go for KFT and LFT and urine Routine as well. Looking forward to your reports.
