I've been really worried because I lost my sense of smell around October 14th or 15th. I got tested on the 16th and my ct value came back as 27. I've been isolating since the 15th, and I haven't had any other symptoms. My oxygen, pulse, and temperature have all been normal, and thankfully my sense of smell has returned. I'm just wondering, when is it safe for me to come out of isolation?

21 days of isolation is enough and safe, maintain that,eat healthy and take rest.

I've had a fever for five days now, and while my throat pain and cold have finally eased up, the phlegm remains. My fever just won't go down, though there's no body pain or stomach ache. The doctor gave me zocef, but I'm wondering if that's enough or if there's something more I should be doing. What do you think?
