Sadly since people in China have begun circulating, another episode of admissions and deaths is being reported.  I think that this will be the pattern World wide as immunity can take time to build.  Apparently it begins 3-5 days after picking up the infection but B4 symptoms appear but it is not yet known how long immunity might last.

Hope Mr Jillydoll I s doing ok

I have asthma and my original medications (pump + Tablets) are on the high risk category.  I changed them myself not knowing I was classed as bad asthma so I have slipped through the net regarding the high risk letter

Also, hubby's work was pulled straight after Boris? lockdown speech last week and he is in the minority of help available over work  drying up.  We are both directors and sub contract to a builder where we draw minimum wage and take the rest in dividends.  As a consequence we might be able to claim 80% furlough of min wage and universal credit.  We have a telephone interview Monday and Wednesday about the UCredit

We've also had to apply for the interruption business loan and not sure whether we?ll get that.  Our landlord is being understanding as we have to keep what little money we have left for food but will be racking up a debt there too

it's finished us financially really but we dint have anywhere to go so not sure what will happen to us in the near future

We've fallen out, made up, fallen out.  it's just been so stressful as well as The worry of not catching this bloody virus

But at the end of the day so far we are still healthy x

Annie0710 if you can get UC you should be able to get the housing benefit element. Depending on high your rent is it may or may not cover it completely, you should be able to look up how much they will pay in your area.
  It's at times like this I'm grateful to live in the UK with the NHS and welfare state.

Hi Everyone.
Just a little update.
OH is doing ok. He's down on his oxygen, eating a tiny bit more, only enough to keep an ant alive, but it's more than before.
He's off intravenous ABs, and on oral now. He's been moved to a room on his own, they had four new people in, so had to move him and another man. He prefers being on his own anyway. Tests for covid, negative, but they?re testing again, they?re only 70% accurate anyway, according to the doctor. He's MRSA free, and HIV. ( I was thinking for a minute, he'd been living a double life or something) 🤣😂 ....they still don't know what pneumonia he has. So more tests are being done. They?re hoping he?ll be home midweek, IF he can manage without the oxygen. ......This is going to take a while to get over. But I'm sure we?ll do it. He's gone from being a candidate for Intensive Care,  to MAYBE coming home in the week. So he's done fantastic.
Thanx ladies for your kind words, and support. Xxxxxx
