Coronavirus advice

Part of the reason it spreads like it has is because for a lot of people, symptoms are very mild...or non existent. But that doesn't stop you passing it on.

I had what I ssumed was a bought of flu last month. Started feeling very fatigued, then a cough set in. Followed by a fever and aches. Felt rough for a week...then fine. Still have a slight occasional cough that doesn't want to shift...but nothing major.

This was before social distancing, isolation etc.

All the checks at the time said 'no' you haven't been anywhere to be at risk.....it was just 'flu' .... though 'just flu' kills a lot of people every year without making the news.

Now.... I am not so sure

Bryanj:
My wife has had a chest infection since last November

Andych:
The Flu actually kills more people in a 12 month period year in year out than CV-19 to date... although the USA is trying to beat that record by the looks of it...
The difference is the Flu doesnt spread like CV-19 and they have a Vaccine for it.

My test results came back negative for CV-19 and SARS which is good.. now I can go and see my son... he is back into ICU as of yesterday with 2 chest drains... he amazes me with his ability to fight to get well again.. F#$K CANCER...

All the best, it must be good to get back by his side. You have enough on with an ill son without this crappy virus complicating things!

I recon I’m just about clear of the symptoms, chest tightness has almost gone, aches have gone, temperature went to normal days ago but have continued to feel fatigued (been sleeping during the day a lot which is not normal for me) I tried to start working from home again on Friday, that lasted about 2 hours!, had sinusitis all weekend and it’s just clearing up now, Green1 I’ll guarantee you’ve got it with those symptoms.
Doc said it’s likely I’ll feel ill for several weeks, I didn’t believe him last Monday when he said that but now I do! :).
So it’s to be avoided if possible folks!
Heard today that the amount of virus you are initially infected with can have a profound effect on how ill you become, I found that surprising but heard it from a couple of reliable sources now, it’s called “viral load” .
Definitely want an antibody test but it looks as though that’ll be weeks away, then it would also help to know how long any immunity will last, hopefully until they have a jab available!.
PS thanks for the kind comments.
