CAN THIS BE COVID? I'M WORRIED.
I went for some blood tests on 5th Oct morning. On 6th night i started having little bit of sore throat as if something is stuck in my throat. No other symptoms.. checked with oxymeter.. value varies between 98 and 99. Kindly give suggestions. I'm taking vitamin C, zinc, magnesium, omega and gargling with betadine.
