Greetings!
Thank you for your question. It is highly likely for your to be having high fever due to COVID-19 if the PUI is found to be positive COVID-19. If not, there are many other causes of fever relating to respiratory problems, gastrointestinal problems and urinary tract problems.
However, you may answer the quiz on Risk Assessment for COVID-19 to evaluate your health status in regards to this disease. After completing this quiz, you will be classified into several categories.
You may consult a MOH doctor by clicking Ask Doctor at the Ministry of Health website (COVID-19 Portal) to ask any health issues related to COVID-19 starting from 8.30 am to 5.00 pm.
After 5.00 pm till 12.00 am, please direct your enquiries to our DoctorOnCall website at this link https://www.doctoroncall.com.my/tanya/.
