I did.  They said it’s probably allergies But to keep an eye on him.  I’m asking here to see if I should just go get him tested.[/quote]

What did the doctor say about testing?  When we had a sick preschooler a couple of weeks ago, the doctor gave us a short term game plan but said that if symptoms continued they'd suggest testing. [/quote]

this summer our ped tested our child based on a high fever alone. turned out to be roseola, but she had zero hesitation about immediately testing, even though we had been social distancing and no adults were sick. [/quote]
My doctor might be more conservative.  They said if a runny nose was the only symptom (which it is), to see if it worsens or if any additional symptoms appear.  My daughter earlier this summer had a runny nose and what I thought was pink eye, I really pushed testing then but the doctor said it didn’t sound like COVID.  
I think maybe the lack of fever might be why?  Not sure.  [/quote]

that’s not conservative ...[/quote]
