My husband got COVID-19.
Follow the sequence time,
【19 Aug (Wed)】
For another matter, when we went to the hospital for my regular checkup, we found out that my husband had a fever by checking the body temperature at the entrance. (99.5°F)
He didn't have a fever this morning, but his throat was a little strange, so he decided to have check for COVID.
(He called the COVID test clinic closest to my house immediately and made a reservation, and 40 minutes after calling, he had test. The doctor said that his lungs were okay, depending on the test results.)
We got home after the regular checkups at my hospital. Just in case, I santized the whole house with alcohol. From that day on, we decided to wear a mask for both of us at home and separate the bedroom, toilet and bathroom.
【20 Aug (Thu)】
In the morning, my husband's fever dropped and it was normal. He didn't feel sick. Recently, I woke up many times at night and woke him up at the same time, so I thought he was just tired.
We continued to wear a mask, sanitizing, and keep using another room.
(Same for Friday)
【22 Aug (Sat)】
My husband was normal temperature on that day as well. It seems that he was in good physical condition.
There was a phone call from the test clinic in the morning. He said it was positive.
According to the test clinic, "Since the symptoms are mild, please recover your physical condition and spend time in a separate room with your family, disinfecting and wearing a mask. If your family members have symptoms (especially fever), please check them as well." It seems like symptom key is fever.
I didn't think it was COVID, so I was surprised.
【23 Aug (Sun)】
We definitely decided to spend 10 days in another room.
(I check everyday, I have no fever or symptoms, it seems to be fine for now.)
【Prediction of infection route】
My husband's company is remote from home this year, so this is not from a workplace.
(I don't go out too. I don't even have a American driver's license yet.)
Since we don't go out unnecessarily, I think it's probably a supermarket or a shop that took out food and coffee.
I asked my husband to do all the shopping, so I feel sorry if it might be an infection from there.
【In the end】
I am grateful that he has not heavy symptoms, but there might be sudden changes, so we will be careful and keeping separate room and recover physical condition.
