So a good friend of mine, who is 31 years old, has recently tested positive for coronavirus, she is an NHS nurse.
The only symptom she had was a loss of her sense of smell.
Her husband and DC have no symptoms over two weeks on. Although her DH had a bit of a sniffle.
Fortunately she’s the only person I know who has tested positive.
Although I myself think I’ve had it, as did my DS and DP. However me and my DS had coughs and mild fevers.
My DH lost his sense of smell and had diarrhoea.
I just wonder why she has presented with such mild, almost non existent symptoms, despite a possible higher viral load (being on the frontline) and other medical staff end up on ventilators.
