What are symptoms of COVID? What to do if I have COVID 19? In this animated video, we will discuss about isolation, treatment, monitoring, and recovery of Covid 19 at home. With new variants like Omicron, Omicron BA, Delta and others coming, it is important to know how to manage COVID at home and prevent the spread of infection. Most people who get COVID will have mild disease that can be managed at home. Learn how to take care of yourself or your family member at home. How to monitor symptoms? When to go to hospital? What medicines to take? How to do home isolation? When to quarantine if you were exposed to COVID? How long to stay in isolation? What medicines to use for COVID treatment? How to keep others safe? and, When to return back to normal activities?
We all have a role to defeat Coronavirus, TOGETHER.

I’m 67 and just recovered at home from a 3 week ordeal with COVID. The most important advice I can give is not to panic! People will scare the hell out of you, the result of which is heightened anxiety. The more anxious you become, the worse your symptoms appear to be. I had no respiratory symptoms, yet because of anxiety, was having episodes of shortness of breath. My symptoms started with a low grade fever and chills for 2 nights. Then came the body aches along with a terrible bout with burning skin on my torso and back. My skin hurt so badly that it effected my sleep. After a week, I lost my sense of smell and taste. The fatique was pretty bad the next week and I became depressed. In my 3rd week, I had nausea and diarrhea. After 3 weeks, January 31st, I started to go for short walks with my wife (who was sick right along side me the whole time). Each day, we walked a little more and breathed very deeply while outside. My taste has returned (she never lost hers) and we are both back to our normal routines. The biggest difference (for me) between COVID and the Flu was the duration of the illness and the multitude of symptoms. Just when you think you’ve turned the corner, a new symptom appears and knocks you down again. This causes depression because you thought you were home free.

I remember around thanksgiving 2021, we had a relative over that was exposed to covid from another person that knew they had it and two days after Thanksgiving, his symptoms was getting worse and he tested positive, shockingly, no one in my family was sick from COVID !!

I'm 13, fully vaccinated with Pfizer, ive been diagnosed today, I woke up today with a bad cluster headache, stuffy yet slightly runny nose, and my throat has been quite sore and dry for around 3 days (if ur throat is sore for a few days I would recommend getting a test <3), fatigue, and a 100.7° F fever. I had slightly more severe conditions, due to not coughing much my throat is stuffed and my oxygen levels are low. I still dont understand much, just taking my prescriptions and staying calm. Additionally I cant have red meats, pasta, or rice, and I have to sleep facing down to avoid difficulty breathing.
If any of you get the symproms I named out of nowhere I strongly recommend getting a test, I wish all you fellow fighters good luck and may you recover quickly!
Edit: I have recovered and am fully healthy now! Thanks to everybody who wished well :)

Thank you for this information.
I’m 27, triple vaxxed, one my students had it last week and felt weird at the end of that week but my test came out negative but now 5 days later I’m positive. I usually wear a mask but when that student was talking to me, I had taken it off for a bit. The student is the only close contact case that I know of but I could have gotten it from anyone in the building 🤷🏾♀️
I have a very runny nose, consistent cough and low energy. My throat is on and off sore.
I usually do a lot things around the house so it’s weird having to wait for someone to bring me water and food. The service is slow here haha.

I got the first symptoms a week ago and today I still feel like crap. It feels like a very bad cold that refuses to go away, but so far this has been more annoying than dangerous.

I've tested negative doing a self test but i'm pretty sure i have it.
It started with throat ache when i woke up and I've been having it for the last couple of days now. Also i feel like doing stuff takes twice as much energy and i have to sneeze alot/runny nose. Sometimes i get a dry cough as well. The worst part is that i have a holiday booked next week so I'm just hoping really bad that it's gonna be over by then. I took every vaccine except the omikron one

I’m 13 and have both vaccines along with the booster. I got tested positive today using a rapid test. My heart dropped, knowing that I should’ve been more careful. I should’ve been more cautious and less selfish, only worrying about my health and thinking nothing of it because I’m “young” School is coming to an end, I am missing out on receiving the academic award that was only given to 4 students out of a class of 32 because of my reckless actions. This is completely my fault, if only I could go back in time to wear my mask correctly. Please remember to wear a mask, covid is no joke.

It's so weird because this variant that's going around today is so contagious and everybody that's getting it has not had it for the last two and a half years and we're all fully vaccinated

Thanks for posting this. I started with sore throat on a Sunday. Was feeling a little off day or so before.
Monday and Tuesday mid day to about 1am I had a fever. Tested positive Tuesday and confirmed Wednesday PCR TEST. Wed had one but not as much. I only took 1 extra strength Tylenol to take edge off fever mon and Tu
Thursday woke up feeling better but back to coughing, sneezing and upper respiratory congestion. I’ve tried to get up a lot sit up and lay on my bathroom counter coughing into the sink. Has helped expel some stuff. Sorry.
I will say I've definitely been sicker, more severely uncomfortable in the past with Mono 2x, flu virus, sinus infections, bronchial infections, etc..
Also taking one Benadryl when I can. Watched something that said an ingredient in it showed to lower the viral load. And this video that said taking basic allergy meds can help along with vitamin C and D.
Haven’t been sick in over 2 years but grateful I’m getting it now.

I tested positive June 24th, that day I suffered a low grade fever in the evening. But after that night the next few days I had zero symptoms until two days ago, July 1st, I started feeling fatigue and just no energy. Being diabetic and overweight, I tested my sugar levels and all seemed to be okay. I now worry and I read comments not to worry too much or cause too much anxiety because you could only make it worse. My doctor did put me on a five day pill (Paxlovid) as soon as I was aware I was positive. I read that Paxlovid may cause "rebound covid" where symptoms are mild and not life threatening.
I'm starting to realize that I may not seeing any kind of improvements for another two weeks (or maybe even more due to my health). Also I did three at home tests that all came back negative but taking my moms advice, I went to the clinic for a test and that one came back positive.

This morning, my younger Brother woke up with a fever and body aches, he took a home Covid test and tested positive. He's gonna take an actual test tomorrow, but it looks like after 2 whole years of avoidance of the virus, it looks like it may have finally caught up to us.

I tested positive 7 days ago. A pounding headache, Cough, sore throat and ears, difficult to breathe. On the second night, I suffered delirium, hallucinations and diarrhoea. Currently it’s the cough and stuffy noise, headache also that bothers me. I am keeping hydrated and am able to sleep far more than normal. Hopefully, this won’t last too much longer.

I'm a 65 year old male, and I had my initial vaccinations about a year ago, but never got the boosters. A coworker's car has been on the fritz, and so I've been giving him a ride to work. He started feeling sick at the end of last week, but kept going to work. His wife tested him on Monday (6/6) and he came up positive. I thought I had dodged a bullet, because I felt fine all this time, and got a negative test result on Tuesday.
Then, on Wednesday, I blew my nose wrong and got that burning sensation in my sinuses which usually means something got stuck in there, and I'm headed for a sinus infection. I thought that's all it was.
On Thursday, I tested myself, fully expecting a negative result, but it was positive instead. Thursday and Friday were pretty sucky, but not as bad as I was expecting. I was feeling achy and fatigued, but that was about it. It's now Saturday evening, and I'm back to about 80%.
I feel really lucky, but also feel my diet and lifestyle played a big role in minimizing my symptoms. About a year-and-a-half ago, I cut refined sugars and carbs out of my diet, along with seed oils (Keto), and about a year ago, I pretty much went full carnivore (beef, eggs, butter, salt and not much else). I hadn't been sick one day during that time - until now. I'm going to go to sleep in a bit, and I have a feeling I'll be back to 100% in the next day or two.

I had 3x vaccines., 2 doses and 1 booster., 2 days ago (Friday) I woke up with headache and terrible sorethroat, did lateral swab and it was positive, later during the day, i got temperature, runny nose and sneezing then later have body malaise. its my 4th day and still having temperature, head and bodyache as well as clogged and runny nose. at times chest pain as well!????! its the worst i ever felt on my 36 years alive.,
I have been using mask whenever im outside except on ( Thursday) when I went shopping, I was completeley fine and did not use mask because it was very warm not knowing it will cause me to have covid.
This taught me a lesson that mask is still a must!!

Yes, both me and a coworker used ArtemiC Rescue when we had COVID-19, we were both well again within 3 days. And recently my flatmate tested positive. I immediately started using the ArtemiC Support serum and I never developed any symptoms despite having somebody who was tested positive in my apartment. Of key importance is of course having already in your refrigerator and being able to use it immediately.

My husband was suffering high fever like 100F for 2 days and got a Rapid test for positive for covid today. I don't have symptoms yet, but I have had close contact with him. So I took a test, and it was positive too. But I'm not convinced of this as I still feel OK. I slightly had aches in the legs. I sleep just next to him, Is this OK. ?

I tested positive today...again... and feel pretty good. I just have a hoarse voice and some mucus in my throat. I am unvaxxed and had moderate Delta in August. I don't expect this go around to be anywhere near the Delta one that kept me with a 101 fever for 2 weeks and high pulse rate. Most Omicron positive folks are saying it is like a mild cold or flu. We will see how well my natural immunity from Delta works. I felt well enough to work yesterday and today, but had to leave work after I tested positive. Bummer.
I wonder when we are going to start treating it like all the other endemic colds and flu infections we get every year. I don't think we have any more COVID patients in our hospital unless they just happen to have COVID when they arrive for something else.

if anyone is reading this please pray for me. I live with my 65-year-old aunt, she just got out of surgery and is recovering. Just recently, I've gotten a stuffy nose. I figured it was just allergies then I started sneezing and coughing (the coughing went away). Then out of nowhere about 2 hours ago, I got joint pain. I don't know what to do. I've gotten my first and second vaccines and waiting on my booster. I've had covid before just a little over a year ago. I don't want to get my aunt sick because she has medical problems like kidney failure. She was just in the hospital because her heart stopped beating. I pray to god I don't have covid. My aunt is my best friend I don't know what I would do if I lost her.

An Update:
Ever since my Brother tested positive, I wound up getting a health scare. I started developing a cough, stuffy nose, and being unable to clear my throat. So on Wednesday I took a home covid test, thankfully I tested negative. So it is possible that I may just be coming down with a cold.
My Brother's actual test results came back, it once again tested positive. However he has been going back to his job at his Job, seeing that he didn't get these results until four days after he took the home test and showing no symptoms. So he's probably already over it.
As for me, I still have a bit of a cough, hard time clearing my throat, and stuffy nose, but surprisingly no fever and I don't really feel weak, so I don't think there's anything to worry about.

Okay so I didn't know it was covid. So it started on Monday sore throat and the next day (Tuesday) I had such a bad headache it felt like my brain was throbbing if I coughed it hurt and if I turned my head it hurt even more. Wednesday no more headache. Sore throat was still there and a lot of coughing. That day we found out my older brother had covid and he got sick the same day I did. So I suppose I got it from him. Tested 3 times, once at home (postive) testing center (positive) and then pcr test (positive) Thursday still a sore throat kind of not that tough anymore as before but still there. Less coughing but also still there. Puffy nose for the first time and that's abt it on Thursday. And Today we have Friday puffy nose is not as puffy anymore and my cough almost completely stopped but still a sore throat. Not crazy anymore but you can feel it.
I'll probably get tested on Tuesday since I tested myself on the third day which is how you're supposed to do it where I'm from. So, will see. I hope everyone stays healthy out there and we got this 🙏🏾
