Covid Fever for 13 straight days?

Hi. Husband (68 years old) tested positive with rapid test for Covid (after I became sick) and is on day 13 with fever. First week had little cough and congestion and was treated with Zpack. Second week chest x-ray showed little lung infection, was given an antibiotic shot and sent home with Azithromycin and Dexamethasone. Almost finished with these. Has little congestion or cough and little to no other symptoms. Unlike me, never lost taste or smell. Any thoughts?

He honestly had cough and congestion for three weeks leading up to my positive molecular test. Beginning to wonder if his rapid test was a false positive and this may be something else?
