Sir, my father has been working in company in delhi for last one week. On friday 5 jun (day before yesterday) he came home fine. And we all talked in evening than he went for sleep. Only after half hour he came back and told he have fever. It was 103 degrees. We gave him calpol (paracetamol). Now the fever was around 99 to 100. Next day again fever came in the morning only. He has gale mei kharash and was little coughing so we gave him calpol (paracetamol)+ azilide (antibiotic 500 mg. The fever goes to 99 to 100 after medicine but comes back to 101 to 102. We want to test him for covid but we don't know how to get that. And also if these are covid symptoms? No hospital is letting fever patient entering. We do not want help from govt hospital, can private hospital help in covid? And please tell what to do next. I am his child and I am really scared. Please read everything and tell me plzz.

Hello, these appear to be symptoms of covid. Everyone in the house should wear mask and follow hand hygiene. Your father should be in a separate room. He needs to be tested in any designated testing centre or hospital in your locality. If any other family members are showing symptoms, they also need to be tested. For further information, kindly call on the helpline issued by government.
