Good evening doctors 🙏
My wife, one year old son, 11 year old daughter and I are all infected. I only myself got rapid test on 20 April and found positive. When My smell and taste lost then I went for test.
I live in 1BHK.
My wife has dry cough for the last 5 days. She is taking Grilinctus thrice. It has slightly comforted her but during evening she frequently coughs. She does breastfeeding to the baby.
Today is our 10 th day after infection.
Please let your helping hand to us during this pandemic.
I consulted one doctor and he adviced MACBERY cough syrup thrice a day.

I will suggest you to go through a RT PCR test considering the pandemic.
Rapid antigen test is not always helpful in making diagnosis of covid RTpcr.
Next Steps
please screen your family with RT PCR, CRP , D DIMER
Cough needs to be evaluated.
