• So it looks like I am over the worst of it now. I was most likely exposed at work (three confirmed cases as of yesterday) or during a visit to the urgent care centre at Guy's early last week. Will be off work for 14 days.

    I can't say for certain if it was the virus, but it was certainly like nothing I have had before in the past. My joints and muscles felt like they were on fire up until the weekend. I have a minor cough but no breathing problems.

    My older son had a fever on Sunday but now seems to be alright.

    I think the cabin fever will be the thing that will cause the most damage. In that, we are most likely to have to get outside and inadvertantly breach any social distancing guidelines.

  • Good to hear you're over the worst of it - it's the reports of the terrible fever and just being wiped out that's got me wondering if I/we really have/had it, however all of us, within the space of a week had clear symptoms ranging from very mild (in my case) to quite nasty and unable to do much else but rest in toddler and wife's case - of course, as testing is becoming more publicised (amongst the rich/famous) it's becoming clear that one can have it with no or very very mild symptoms. We're heading for a walk later (rural living means we can easily avoid close proximity with others) before we all go mental and we end up killing each other (by that I mean, my wife ends up killing me)

  • it's becoming clear that one can have it with no or very very mild symptoms.

    The government have been saying from the start that many (even most) people will get very mild or no symptoms to be fair. Define mild though...
