Why don’t we hear about how many people have survived Coronavirus? Surely there are for more survivors than deaths, why isn’t this reported in the news?

I'm certain I've had it and been diagnosed by A&E docs and three GPs I've had phone consultations with. Not been swabbed. It felt like nothing I've ever had before. It was horrible and I would never describe it as mild. However, mild is being used in the medical term. I felt like I was at death's door at times when I felt I couldn't breathe and my heart was pounding and I was freezing and sweating and general yuckiness. BUT a week later and I am ok Smile I'm still resting and now on antibiotics for a secondary infection as a result but I have survived!

Not sure if I'd make it into any stats though?

Meanwhile, my Dsis and DH had much milder symptoms, slight breathlessness and sore throats and headaches. Both fine now Smile

There was a guy on the radio who survived a bad case, after going to hospital, stayed for a week. 38 / 39 years old.

I guess for most it’s true recovering at home and for the percentage who get very bad the stats aren’t that great.

It’s recovering at home..,
