I kept him home from camp because he’s pretty miserable. We plan to travel next Tuesday to visit family. Timing couldn’t be worse. Should I call frontline doctors? Can I get meds without a positive test?
Well, found a place to get ivermectin for all of us. And then I had a change of heart and got him tested. Whaddya know? He’s negative for covid! It’s just a summer cold. And a bad one at that.
Why treat this any differently than any other ailment? If he is running a fever within 24 hours of your travel it is generally advised to stay home. As well the rest of the household should take precautions too.
