Question

I'm really worried because I've had a fever for more than two weeks now. I've been taking an antiflu antibiotic as well, but I'm not sure if this is normal or how much longer it'll take for me to fully recover. Is there anything else I should be doing or looking out for?

If so, could you recommend a good one? I'm kind of worried about these symptoms.

Question

I'm really worried because my husband, who's 33 years old, just got a positive result from his RTPCR test with a CT value of 32.819. He's had a mild cough and sore throat for the past four days, but his oxygen levels are at 99. I'm trying to figure out what this CT value of 32 means. Does it suggest a mild infection, or should we be more concerned about a greater level of infection?
