Contact your family doctor by phone, without rushing to his office. Just as you never have to rush to the emergency room. These are the essential recommendations given by the Ministry of Health on what to do in case of Covid symptoms. But it does not end there for those who believe they have contracted the coronavirus, and does not live at home alone.
In this case, in fact, those who have the symptoms of Covid-19 must strictly wear a mask in addition to distance themselves from the other members of the family. And this while waiting for the result of the swab. Just as in these cases it is also essential to frequently sanitize not only the hands, but also the rooms and objects of the house.
The precautionary principle
Only with the result of the swab can you be sure of being negative or positive for Covid-19. As the symptoms of the coronavirus, more common and more frequent, range from fever to cough, passing through breathing difficulties. And therefore they can easily be confused, precisely in this autumn period, with seasonal ailments.
With the suspicion of Covid-19, it is also necessary that the precautionary principle always prevails, and this even when a child has a fever and cough. Even in this case, parents should not rush to the emergency room, but must contact the pediatrician by telephone.
And if the pediatrician responds, you will have to contact the doctor who will provide all the necessary information on how to proceed. With regard to the health emergency, then, it must be said that all the Regions have activated toll-free numbers to contact for assistance and information.
The fiduciary isolation
If, then, positive Covid-19 emerges from the swab, the infected subject will have to observe a period of isolation. That is, precisely, the so-called fiduciary isolation until, as a new buffer, there will be no negative coronavirus. This also applies when you are positive for Covid-19 but asymptomatic.
