For the past week, I have had a sore throat, a deep cough, and my voice is hoarse. What should I do about it (COVID)?

If you have a sore throat, cough, and hoarse voice for a week, it is recommended to visit a website created by Swiss authorities for guidance on COVID-19 symptoms. If the tool recommends seeing a doctor or getting tested, you should call a designated number to schedule an appointment at the nearest testing clinic. It is important not to directly show up at clinics without an appointment. Additionally, those who have been in close contact with someone recommended for testing should also get tested. Close contact refers to spending more than 4 hours in the same room or having direct contact (kissing, conversations) with the person. If advised to go to a testing clinic, it is best to avoid public transportation.
