Hello, I have a stuffy nose and yellow/green mucus comes out when I blow my nose. Should I be worried about the corona virus? Thank you

Good morning, ma'am!

Your symptoms are common to many conditions (e.g. cold, flu, etc.). Some symptoms are more specific or important. It is difficult to confirm with the information you gave me but the best thing to do before going to a screening clinic is to check your risk level of contracting the coronavirus.

1. Check your symptoms

Go to thefollowing address so that you can analyze if your current symptoms deserve a doctor's attention or if you should be screened.

2. Hygiene measures

If you have flu-like symptoms, a 14-day quarantine is required. Avoid contact with others (especially people over 70 years of age), stay home, and then practice good hygiene. Do not use public transportation

3. No need to panic

Serious complications from the Coronavirus are rare. The important thing right now is not to contaminate those around you, to control the pandemic and not to make yourself sick with the anxiety that the current situation may generate. If you are feeling overwhelmed or very stressed, consult the following page

Hopefully this answers your question.
