Did anyone see the news this morning. An Italian Doctor advised she had the disease for 14 days and she is still positive.
It’s lasting longer than the recommended 14 days the government are saying.

There's a link at the top of this page to the nhs advice, 14 days is the amount of time it takes for symptoms to start. So if you think you have been exposed you isolate for 14 days and if you haven't been ill you can go out again.
It doesn't mean covid 19 never lasts more than 14 days.
