He should get tested if not already.
The only way to know is by testing: I have come across patients with different symptoms so testing is the only way. You could start by ordering a home test. If it’s negative , he should take a pcr. You can also go to different pharmacies that are testing. It may help if he is positive to get iv remdesevir … ask your doctor to check.
If he is not vaccinated, he should get tested for covid 19.
