Did they give you any idea how long you need to wait for the results?

Your symptoms are too severe for man flu. I hope you've seen a doctor as well as having the covid-19 test.

When I had the test a few months back, the results were back inside 24 hours so it was an easy isolation and then back to work - obviously it was negative. Fingers crossed it's just man flu Steve.

Got a very nice negative this morning, I'd be lying if I said I wasn't relieved. Still feel like crap though, ti.e to catch up on lost sleep and hopefully feel better

Media - Explosion In Deadly Virus Cluster!!!
Reality - 20 cases, mostly low risk who may not be positive anyway
Government - Shut the borders, isolate, tank the economy further
Me - Still working from home, lovely jubbly.

Re: Coronavirus - how's everyone doing?
I'm doing 3 days a week at home, which I like, but there is talk of it becoming 5 days - which I don't. If we never have to go into the office then 'we' could just as well be in Manila or London or Auckland
