Covid scare
I had fever last Wednesday and Thursday (max 101.4) and bit of sore throat/throat pain. I took paracetamol and since Friday I don't have fever. Sore throat is almost gone but I have lesser sense of taste ( not completely lost). I have little bit of dizziness also at times.
Is there a chance I have/had Covid?
