Hi.
Dd8 got her first Covid symptoms 10 days ago so today should be her final day of isolating. She was never terribly unwell, but she was noticeably under the weather (headache, sore throat, very tired, tummy ache, cough) Initially she had a temp of about 38.3 but that went down and is now between 36.5 and 37.5 depending on the time of the day. I don’t have the most accurate thermometer. She’s still a bit tired, but much better than she was.
Would you say that was still considered a temp?
Thanks.

No those last two readings are within the normal body temperature range (if accurate). Normal body temperature is up to 37.5
