My wife has covid

[Pamplemousse]

She has birthday presents in spare room my question is some of its clothes how long would COVID live on those items?

Read that piece from the CDC, Phil...

Even if - and it's a bloody big if - she's coughed on them, we're talking a few hours maximum. Soak them before washing with some of that Dettol sanitiser liquid if you're concerned, but I wouldn't be.

32 degrees? I hope not!

Who says you can't get covid again for 6 months?

Antibodies produced I think he means. Wasn't there a recent study in Israel showing natural immunity remains higher than vaccination due to the big tail off issue?

Will you get vaxxed if you dodge this bullet?

My wife has an ache under her chest area occasionally is this a symptom? Should she not be getting better now after infectious since Friday?

I am still worried we will all catch it family ect and I worry we could get ill?

I worry we are all doomed and this pandemic never ends and we all have to isolate and we never get better treatments and this is life masked up triple vaxed every year?

I think that the basic symptoms can often last a good ten days or so.

Realistically, you might get ill. Or, you might not.

I know it's tough, but you need to practice acceptance.

I had rib and breast bone pain for months after and have heard a few others who had the same.

One thing that was very different with covid was how it lingered.. some of my symptoms lingered for months. Dr told me if I felt worse or started having breathing issues I needed medical attention, outside of that, let it ride out.

Accept I could be ill or my wife that’s a worrying thought. When will the pandemic end I will be worried about my parents my wife’s parents everybody is everybody going to catch covid every few months isolate this is life these days too scared to be around anybody?

Sorry to be unkind, Phil, but please try to type comprehensibly? You're veering towards word salad.

It's only been 5 days, I was unwell for 6 weeks. This was pre vaccines though so hopefully your wife will be protected with just one vax.

Thanks so where do we go from here can I go to a house party or a trip abroad or a gig? How long should I be avoiding this stuff for sorry to divert off topic but that’s been 2 years of my life I have barely left my own town? I don’t know how big a risk it would be to me?
