Covid-19 - other viruses are available

Turns out the week previously, my daughter's oriental archery tutors had it. Which means my daughter is a superspreader (symptomless) . At least this flu doesn't kill.

Kung Flu?

how come to test for Covid they have to stick a swab through your nose to the back of your throat while alledgedly a single droplet can infect an entire village? Load of bollocks to me

You are talking through your arse - better pray you don't get any symptoms, because your test is going to be extra painful.

I told my son it was a rectal test and we all had to stick our arses out the car window and get a swab.

2 hours of "daddy is only joking".

Then he gets a pipe cleaner battered up his nose.

Watch it, she can put an arrow in a fly's eye at one hundred yards, from a galloping horse.

Wishing her the best, matey.

Thanks. They now suspect a pulmonary embolism. So she's in the right place.

So far diagnoses were :
Trapped nerve in ribs
Flu

Funnily enough, PE matches both. But medicine is still much more an art than a science.

An Emergency Medicine doctor I work with described it as a differential diagnosis decision tree.

It is, and to be fair, the doc did do an x-ray and there was then no evidence of a clot.

If she had to stay in for a while, it's five minutes drive from where I live. Twenty minutes for my son.

On a serious note, hope she's Ok.
