But thankfully I was able to call my doctor & get a prescription for antibiotics (Augmentin),
and get a dose while I was at the pharmacy. He's cool with it, i.e. calling it in vs having me come in for a visit first.

Um, antibiotics will never work against a viral infection, ever. Using antibiotics prophylactically is a really great way to create resistant strains of bacteria. Info here:

I hope you and your wife are voluntarily quarantining yourselves. 14 days to prevent contaminating someone else, so I've read. Please don't take chances just because you feel better.
