They had a high grade fever (38.4), high heart rate (100+ bpm), headache and sore tummy since yesterday evening and all through the night. They were shivering all night and taking shallow breaths. The fever abated this morning but the accompanying migraine and stomach upset is vicious. A cooked breakfast which they ate earlier helped, they've been asleep all day since, fitfully enough but they're snoring in the last hour so I think it's good sleep. We go nowhere and do nothing, so we're hoping it's just a regular illness their body has conjured up all on its own but I'm absolutely terrified now because three days ago we were taking care of my relative who is high risk and lives with elderly people. Now, I'm optimistic it's not that serious as their tolerance for being unwell /threshold of discomfort is actually zero, so I wish I could actually determine how urgently they need help at any given time. Their regular body temp is back to 37.6 (that's what they usually are) and they had good blood oxygen levels as well as being able to blow 500 on the peak flow but they're still moaning and groaning in their sleep and seem to be in considerable pain. I wish I was sick instead. We quarantine and wash down everything coming into the house (including clothes worn outside), we have no close contacts except cocooning relatives. I have no idea where they could have picked it up if it is covid. We have a lot going on at the moment (just this month, evicted, moved, two dying relatives, life feels like constant barrage of incessant sh!t, mostly just want to be dead, all the time) so I'm just hoping their immune system is weakened from stress and misery and a rest will be enough. Are Southdoc the only place to call on a weekend? They said they wanted to wait and talk to GP tomorrow but if they deteriorate I'm going to ring someone tonight and ask what to do. I'm completely freaked.

Max 15 people outside takes no account of individual places ability. Some places with an outside can Only accommodate 5 people safely. And others 55 people safely. The problem is the guidelines are stupid so people ignore them. Put proper feasible and reasoned rules in place with punishment for non conformance and then we will get somewhere. Put unfounded, unreasoned, unscientific arbitrary And often contradictory guidelines in place and people will ignore them.
