😷🤒🤕🧪💊🪟🛏😢
Background: My symptoms started on Wednesday/Thursday (early October), I had a sore throat, dry cough, headache, tiredness, shortness of breath etc,
Dad got covid prior to me getting it. (To clarify, I have had one dose of pfizer, Dad is fully vaccinated)

NSW Health advised us to go to hospital, we got a rapid test (which is 70% effective) that came back negative for me to start, positive for Zac, after the PCR test (nasal swab) the result came back as positive. The 1 hour and a half wait was one of the most stressful things that has happened to me, not knowing the outcome.

We are now in the covid ward, having tablets and being monitored. I may be sent home if I improve, I am not sure how that would go..I am planning on doing a YouTube video soon outlining my experience when I am better, no videos for now as I am unwell,

I have no idea what will happen, when I will be home, how long I will stay here in hospitaleverything will all depend on the situation and circumstances, I know as much as you folks at this point. We are trying to recover as much as possible

Morning everyone, we are still here in hospital, fortunately my breathing has gotten a little better but not that much, still have a cough and my throat is much more sore. My temp last night was around 36.4° which is a decrease from 38° which is good.Yesterday I done a mini Q&A on IG, Stories which I will continue today so ask questions below, last night we moved to another story one below in the hospital, I am really missing the outdoors, what’d I’d love to feel is fresh air, but can’t feel that at this time.

update 1: Monday morning 11/10/21
Hello everyone, waiting on updates and plans in place and weather I’ll be staying here in hospital or if I will go to isolate at home, stay tuned for more information.My symptoms have worsened since this post was uploaded. My temperature was quite high 38° but i was given panadol/nurofen and the temp is going down that is good, my cough is increasing/decreasing as well, I will keep you guys updated where I can.

once we are are home, we’d wait until 14 days after my first symptoms (so including hospital days where we stayed, not just at home)

More updates soon
