Difference between normal flu & Covid19
Hello,
I am looking more info on the differences between normal flu or covid. Since most of the symptoms are common. How a person can identify if he has little caugh and fever it is because of flu or covid19? If someone like me had recently felt caugh related problem for 2-3 days and then recovered but as caugh has gone, it's turn to fever, this fever is not raising body temperature but I can feel it internally, I feel little cold specially in evening and night time. I am taking paracetamol 500 with Azithro but no relief in fever. Can someone help me to know this and provide me suggestions with few medicines with prescription. Thanks, Shadab

Any types of fever and cold and cough doesn't signify corona virus infection. It maybe due to any viral infection. RTPCR swab test is a confirmatory test of coronavirus infections. Do you have any travel history or Any contact history with any positive person?
