Patient recovering from COVID-19 gives wrenching account of experience

[@incipidsigninsetup]

The fact that neither his wife or kids got it while he had symptoms and under the same roof borderlines on a miracle.

[@sebcrakpot1234]

maybe he had a cold but got the virus in the hospital lol everything is possible

[@majbrittcastrupjrgensen2874]

My husbond had it, I didn’t get it! He was sick at home, not very sick, but sick with fever, a lot of coughing, sore throat and he got tested positiv and I didn’t get a thing! Nothing at all! We have been out of quarantine now for a week.

[@blastfurnacecoffeehouse1423]

Super contagious, ey?

[@kenclements11]

Did he ever get a test or did they just treat him as a victim like his wife said. They treated him as he had covid-19. I interpreted that as no test was done.

[@madscience8082]

Not a miracle, it's very consistent with the data. In fact, according to the best data we have from the most comprehensive testing in the world (in Iceland and South Korea), for every 1 person with the infection that needs to be hospitalized, there will be 49 positives with mild symptoms, and 50 positives with no symptoms at all. Only around 1% of the infected population becomes seriously ill. Half will not even get sick and will have no idea they are carrying it. So technically, he could have 20 other families living with them, they could all be infected, while he's the only one with severe symptoms, and that would still not be surprising, nor a miracle. The fact that nobody else in his family is seriously ill is actually what we would expect based on the best data we have at the moment

[@robbg1973]

God bless this family. I was admitted on 3/18. Today is 4/12, I was sent home Wednesday 4/8. I too was put on life support. And yes we have to keep the faith. God bless you family. The recovery is going to feel like it’s taking forever, but look at the alternative.

I was in my early 20s when i had developed pneumonia after fighting the flu and it was a terrible feeling of not being able to breathe. I will never forget that feeling and how scary it was. I'm glad he's better.

[@jonathancarroll941]

What did the pneumonia feel like

[@1978UA]

It feels like you fave an elephant on your chest and a backpack full of bricks on your back. Trying to breath and you’re burning up with a fever and chills. Body aches. Had pneumonia three times in my life. First time I was 12.

@Pamela Choyce : Staying home? Depends on how your health is. If not positively infected and respecting the guideline for social/physical distancing is adnered to, then there's nothing wrong with going out for walks, "fresh air", ..., only needing to respect to abide by safe distancing guidelines.

[@Beccamae75]

I cannot stay home. I live in oklahoma and work in a small cafe here in my home town. In america restaurants and fast food chains are categorized as "essential" so I HAVE to get out and go to work. Americans love their deep fried food you know!

[@marilynwoolford-chandler1161]

All this pain and suffering could have been prevented if we had just quarantined those traveling from infected countries. Be proactive!

[@saveUyghurs]

Seriously. There was ZERO screening in the airports and at borders. People wouldn’t be out of jobs and kids out of school now if the country acted sooner.

[@charlottereitberger6253]

If China had not LIED we would have ALL been safer and not ended up playing catch up with peoples lives . China knew in December 2019!

[@saveUyghurs]

Countries like South Korea and Taiwan are much closer to China with far more Chinese travellers coming in and out yet they were still able to better prepare given much less time. At present there are only 322 cases of covid in Taiwan. That’s a population of 23.7 million all packed on a small island. People wear masks. Schools and businesses are still open. Canada has 37.5 million people and we already have almost 8500 cases!

I’ve been telling young people all along not to take this virus lightly even though the media and government officials keep saying that only the elderly and those with underlying conditions (which includes people of all ages by the way) have to worry about it. I knew from my bouts with the seasonal flu as a young relatively healthy person that a virus can be absolutely brutal even if you’re young, and I noticed early that young people were ending up in the hospital on ventilators as well as a result of this virus.

[@daumsman]

[@dylanrowan6626]

daumsman Not true, One of my friends friend was 31 years of age, no underlying health issues and did not smoke. He was as healthy as a horse and he passed away not even 2 weeks after contracting the virus.

[@murrayflewelling1258]

yeah , accept "they " have been telling us that is not the case for about a month. I think the way that countries handled this, at least European and N.A amounts to the frog in the boiling water scenario. Anyone who knows how to plot dots on a graph has been called fear mongers, paranoid , preppers etc . Luckily I got a few friends out of the stock market before the crash because I was able to scream at them long enough that they understood Jim Cramer and friends had totally lost touch with reality. Oil was at $30 and as everything grind ed to a halt "they " kept saying " I think we will come in at 1 or maybe even 0 GDP......These people should never again, advise anyone ever about anything !

Another case where the key coved 19 symptom “shortness of breath, trouble breathing” assessed as a cold????? You do not get shortness of breath with a cold and you don’t need a medical degree to know that especially in the midst of a pandemic! WHY are people being wrongly “assessed” at these clinics or over the phone, this is very concerning....

[@scorpion-fs7pg]

Right. It's like medical people aren't taking this serious so how can we expect others to.

[@AmandaIsAwesome]

I’m 32 with no underlying conditions having trouble breathing with a “cold” and I can say the only ones taking me seriously are the doctors at my family doctors clinic. I think everyone else is trying to keep the panic down knowing the result is the same. Self isolation until symptoms are so bad that you need medical attention or you recover. They can’t help you with medication. Only to treat the symptoms and hope you survive.

Even though i was there for 3 hours and one lady and 2 men that came in way after me went inside while I'm still waiting patiently and when i tried to ask why am i not called no one gave me an answer until finally a nurse said you need a special room ( without even looking at me). Maybe because I'm wearing a hijab or they were having a bad day, I don't know. I mean I get they're risking their lives to save others but why be rude to patients?.
