I'm not sure if 36.9 is considered a fever for Covid and I'm looking for some help. I know that the normal temperature for a healthy person is around 98.6 Fahrenheit, but I'm not sure if that changes for Covid. Has anyone experienced a temperature of 36.9 and been tested for Covid? If so, what did the doctor say? I'd really appreciate any advice or information from anyone who has had this experience.

Covid-19 ve Ateş:

Covid-19 ve Ateşin Belirtileri Hakkında

Covid-19, çoğu insanın hafif veya orta derecede semptomlarla birlikte gelen bir hastalık olup, ağır hastalıkların da olduğu görülmüştür. Ateş, Covid-19 hastalığının en yaygın semptomlarından biri olup, çoğu vaka için vücut sıcaklığı 37.2 C (99 F) veya daha yüksek olması durumunda da ortaya çıkabilmektedir.

36.9 C (98.4 F) ateş, çoğu vakada Covid-19 için yeterli bir ateş olmayabileceği anlamına gelmez. Ancak, aynı zamanda, ateşinizin bir virüs enfeksiyonuna işaret edebileceğinden emin olmak için bir doktora danışmanız önerilir.

A fever is generally considered to be a temperature of 100.4°F (38°C) or higher. A temperature of 36.9°F (2.7°C) is not considered a fever, and could be the result of a variety of things, including a low temperature caused by a virus or infection. However, it is important to note that having a fever is one of the common symptoms of COVID-19, and if you are experiencing any other symptoms such as shortness of breath, coughing, or a headache, it is important to consult a medical professional to determine if you should be tested for the virus.

The short answer to your question is yes, 36.9°C (98.4°F) is considered a fever in the context of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19). According to the World Health Organization (WHO), a fever is defined as a body temperature higher than 37.3°C (99.1°F).

In the context of COVID-19, a fever is indicative of an infection and should be taken seriously, as it is one of the main symptoms of the virus. In some cases, fever can reach temperatures of up to 40°C (104°F) or higher, and should be monitored closely. Other symptoms of COVID-19 include a dry cough, difficulty breathing, tiredness, and aches and pains.

It is important to remember that a fever is just one symptom of COVID-19, and is not definitive proof of an infection. If you have a fever and any other symptoms of the virus, it is important to contact a medical professional to get tested and get the appropriate treatment. If you have been in contact with someone who has tested positive for COVID-19, it is important to self-isolate and contact your local health authority for further guidance.

In conclusion, 36.9°C (98.4°F) is considered a fever in the context of COVID-19, and should be taken seriously if accompanied by other symptoms associated with the virus. It is important to contact a medical professional and take the necessary precautions to protect yourself and those around you.
