That's startling news Joe, you may be one of those people who are positive but feel little of the effects. I hope so anyway . :thumbsup:

Thanks Sax, initially I believe it means 14 days complete isolation for both of us. The other issue is that she's been back in the carehome for the last few days

Best wishes to you and Wendy Joe, this thing is a lot more widespread than most people realise... is there someone that you can arrange with to get shopping and prescriptions delivered?

I think that when Wendy had the head ache and flu like symptoms about 10 days ago that might have been corona Bill and unlike a lot of people she immediately went into self quarantine for 7 days until she had the official test on Saturday. It would appear with this virus that you can have very mild or show no symptoms and still be infected. The problem arises when you come into contact with some third party and their reaction to the virus can prove fatal

Some people, and because of the triggers vy which we test we don't know how many people that 'some' is will be totally asymptomatic despite being infected and ergo infectious. The positive of that might be that you are possibly less likely to infect others as you arent coughing left right and centre.

Look at it this way. If she had mild symptoms 10 days ago she could have been infected anywhere up to 24 days ago during which point she would more than likely have passed it to you. Id guess if you havent had it and unknowingly kicked it's arse you're either asymptomatic yourself or naturally immune or just lucky. Fingers crossed for those being the case.

Very true Joe, it's also been shown that there is a reasonably high percentage of people who show no symptoms at all and never even realise that they have it....its like Typhoid Mary all over again.
