They are taking him in again  :'(

Oh my goodness, I hope they will keep him this time until he is a bit better. The to- ing and fro-ing is unbelievable and must be exhausting for all. Thanks for the update. Hugs to you and jd.

I think it's really important to remember that coronovirus and Covid19 aren't really the same thing. We are trying to stop the spread of a virulent form of coronovirus called Covid19. Coronovirus is a catch-all name for what most of us would call the common cold.
So if someone tests positive for coronovirus it does not mean they have covid19.
The 13year old who unfortunately died had tested positive for coronovirus but that does not mean he had covid19.
He could have had meningitis.
I'm saying this because people are freaking out about the word coronovirus, but at some point we all would have had it. Covid19 is different. I have to remind myself to be aware of this and not get wound up snd terrified by news

I now understand why ?coronovirus? was on Richard's aunt's death certificate.  She didn't have Covid19. A common cold killed her, as she was incredibly frail already.

Covid is an abbreviation of corona virus disease, 19 is the year the strain was named.

Poor Jillydoll.  I wonder how long it is before you get the results when you are tested for CV.

The test result can be returned within 4 hours depending on where it was taken, how far it has to travel to a Lab. for processing and how long waiting list there might be at the Lab.; tested in batches of 10 at a time I believe. DH looked last night .......

Not only is it ridiculous,the hospital dr stopped his ABs midway through,said the infection had gone but as I'm sure we all know,you are always told to finish the course,Jill always said,I'm worried the infection will come back and lo and behold,it's back,even the paramedics said to her,what a runaround you've been given,I know it's tough times but this is really bad treatment.

Yes I have always been aware of the need to finish a course (unless a doctor decides that it is the wrong one and gives another). The urogynaecologist who saw me recently stressed the same. I have just started a 1 week course for an ear infection. It seems to have started improving very quickly but I know to finish it.
