[QUOTE="Max68, post: 2359903, member: 521172"] Thank you, the last I heard mum was her normal self but haven't heard back as yet from my email chase up yesterday,. Obviously nervous still because unlike the flu which seems to hit at it's worst early Covid can get worse after the first week, which obviously we are keeping our fingers crossed against. The person at the funeral who had already had it had it mild the first time and practically non existent second time. They only went for a test because all other funeral goers tested positive., Certainly evidence there of asymptomatic transmission and all worse masks at the funeral. I'm hoping they look into why certain older people survive but some die or how you have different outcomes for people with comorbidities or the overweight. There must be a common factor somewhere unless it is just luck. I'm still surprised we haven't yet heard much about the possibility of sleep apnoea being a risk factor. It tends to be, (not always) an affliction that affects the heavier person. It can drain oxygen intake quite severely so if hospitals are lying those who have sleep apnoea on their backs, even with ventilation and in a drug induced coma, the combination of the apnoea and Covid in the lungs is a double whammy. So many unknowns still. [/QUOTE]
