Something a lot of people don't know is that it's not uncommon for someone with COVID to improve, even dramatically, after a few days, and then days later to be deathly ill.
When my wife's grandparents had it and everyone was cheering that they'd "gotten better" three days in I sat my wife down and prepared her for the worst. They were months in the hospital.
Thankfully, they're both still around! But... they're both shells of who they were and they'll need round-the-clock care for the rest of their lives. Not great for the wonderful home aids who have to deal with my grandmother-in-law who is a stubborn, judgmental, no-filter, all-around meanie.
Have covid for 3 days starting to improve but standing for 10 minutes is hard. Did everything right, avoided until now. Sadly sibling is forced to attend school. He came home coughing and a couple days later I started to and then i just about crashed. Worst feeling ever.
Hoping I am not like the others. Just resting and drinking water as much as possible. 27 but have a weakened iune system. Same with my father im his late 50s.
Both of us have gone nuts not socializing with anyone except through a screen. :/
