Still at the hospital! Test results just came back and said I tested NEGATIVE for the flu! Even though I’ve had flu symptoms for a week now. Could be another virus, they said. BUT Dept of Health has approved me for coronavirus testing. Happening shortly. I’ll let you know more.

Ok, so they came back and did another throat swab and nostril swab which they then send away. That’s the COVID-19 test. They’ve discharged me and told me I should have results within 72 hours from Dept of Health. I have been advised to self quarantine in the time being.

I hope you escape soon ! Home, rest, hot toddy and lemsip.. :0
