My visual diary of COVID-19

It was my father who got sick first. He told his brother, and he took half a day off from the hospital. He prescribed cough drops, antipyretics, phlegm-reducing drugs and the most important COVID-19 medicine for his father. He also bought food along the way. I was not sick at that time. .

One day later, my father vomited. He had already vomited twice in the morning. He vomited all the food he ate at night. I was very worried and told my brother, and he asked me to take my father to the emergency room.

After going to the emergency room, my father vomited again, but I saw that there were more elderly people in worse condition than my father waiting to be admitted to the ward, and some of them even had cognitive impairments. So I knew my father would not be admitted to the hospital. I gave him an antiemetic injection, a lung scan, a blood test, and an intravenous drip. I called him home in the middle of the night. At that time, there were no taxis willing to take the confirmed cases, so I had to pay an extra 200 yuan for a taxi.

I had a fever when I got home and was diagnosed.

The next day, I asked my sister to buy bleach, disinfectant and vitamin C. We had to self-isolate.

Because COVID-19 medicine is only given to people over 60 years old, my father got much better after returning from the hospital, and he had medicine and food, so the situation was fine. However, my throat was extremely sore, so I drank a lot of water. My friend came all the way from Happy Valley to bring supplies without telling me first, because she had been infected with the epidemic before and said that her throat would be very sore and boiling water with monk fruit would be good. She not only brought food, but also two monk fruit. I drank a lot, and my brother came back with throat lozenges and more cough drops.

My friend said that after taking the injection, I would be fine in about seven days, and it was indeed accurate. I would be better in five days. On the sixth day, the rapid test showed that it was back to a straight line, and it was negative for two consecutive days and I was fine.

Fortunately, my brother, who is a doctor, prescribes medicine for my father this time, and my sister comes to buy supplies. I haven't talked to them that much for a long time. Although there is still a gap between us, we are connected because we all love my father.

And I also have many good friends who are willing to help, so I am very grateful. I will also help if you need help in the future.
