It’s been a tricky 24hrs - an immediate family member has tested positive #covidー19uk. They’re doing OK despite underlying issues and we’ve had no physical contact, but it’s a worry because it’s clear how much just a week of self-isolation for someone on their own is tough.
It’s also striking how symptoms (literally just a cough when tested - and tested bc had been in Italy) vary. She reports no major fever, mild cough and mainly lethargy/loss of appetite.
Obviously I’d announce a national emergency if I had no appetite but the point is that many of us may well be infected but asymptomatic. So, you know, be careful and kind and all.
