Think I might’ve contracted COVID last month. The first day, I developed soreness in the back of my throat, then developed a fever the next. The fever broke after two days, but I developed a horrible cough and spat up phlegm which took several weeks to subside. I’m still not completely over the coughing fits.
I’m not sure it wasn’t just the flu, as I suffered no breathing problems. But my sister developed similar symptoms around the same time, and she complained of feeling some fluid in her lungs, so I dunno.
