I've been flattened for over a week Ed, I was last at work a week ago and have had some pretty scary chest tightness, horrible sore throat, aches, bad headache, runny nose etc. It's the sickest I've been for quite a long time. But zero fever and cough is occasional, so technically I can go out and infect all the people I like!
That would be dumb of course and luckily my employer is responsible, so I've been told to self-isolate and logged as a suspected case.
Glad it's not just me who has been thinking that.
This has caused tension in our house because other half is convinced there's absolutely no way I might have coronavirus because I haven't had a fever/continuous cough and therefore hasn't been taking self-isolation as seriously as I think he should. I'm not saying I do have it, but I do feel there's no way I can rule it out.
I know public health advice has to be written in generalisations, but it's not low risk if people go around potentially spreading the virus because they don't have the two communicated symptoms is it?
