Hi, I have a cough and dark, oily secretions. Is this a symptom of Covid? The cough has been going on for over 3 days. Thank you ☺️

I had frequent bronchitis (3 in 2 years) in 2018-2019, the symptoms were similar.

Hello Ma'am,
It is not impossible that it is COVID. To know for sure you would need a screening test.
That said, most people will also have a fever with the cough, which doesn't seem to be the case with you.
I would tend to wait a few days in the absence of a fever before seeking medical attention.
Happy day :)
Alexander
