Morning my wife gave me few camphor and clove to smell, I couldn't noticed any smell. Today is the fifth day and, I can confirm that I am affected by covid 19.
Everything happens in very quick time and it is hard to belive, that the coronavirus is staying inside me. How I was infected is still a question as I hardly went out, staying at home and following all covid 19 protocol. I am very much surprised to find the virus attacking me.
Day 1 : It all started with a mild fever after a morning walk. Usually the morning breeze is very cold due to jungle all around. So having a fever soon after the walk, I assume it to be a viral flu. I took a paracetamol tablet and felt okay overnite.
Day 2 : I woke up with mild body pain and muscular pain. Usual symptoms after flu fever. Again I took a paracetamol and felt ok. First two days I had a normal viral symptoms. These thing were common in every year during weather change.
Day 3 : I felt little bit of throat problem. And then I started to think about coronovirus. This is usually the first symptoms when you get affected by Corona. I started to take steam and drink warm water. Soon I felt good, and throat started to get better.
Day 4 : I experienced , a running nose. This is kind of one is getting better of other. Fever, body ache, throat and now it's time for running nose. One after the another I started to develop new complication. Looking like a mild cold, I took citrizen tablet a common allergic medicine. To my surprise it worked wonder I felt better. I got rid of the running nose.
Day 5 : Today morning, when I sanitize my hand, I couldn't get its smell. Which forced me to ask for camphor and clove from.my wife. And unable to smell the strong fragrance of both, I must conclude it was a covid-19 symptoms.
Loosing smell, and taste is the new symptoms of covid new variant which is taking over many Indians. And now I am also one of them.
How I was infected.
But how I get infected is still a mystery. On further analysis, I zeroed on an and only instance which might affected me.
Last week, I went to attend an engagement ceremony of a relative. Though it was arranged in a very strict protocol so getting affected there is not possible.
I further analysed to find that, my nephew was also detected covid 19 infected soon after the party. He was coughing that day as well. I remembered sitting just behind him. He was driving the car, and had coughed few time. The AC blower of the car took the infection to me. As I was sitting behind him. Though I had mask in my mouth, the virus might have infected me through my Eyes, which put me lot of Headache in all these days.
Now as I concluded the exact reason, I thought, to bring this cause of infection to everyone attention. These virus are now air borne and can get to easily through eyes or nose.
Basically covering everything is only way to get rid of this virus, and you can stay protected. Now next few days going to be crucial. If I develop some new complication then it going to be dangerous. Oxygen level, lungs...cough... so many things could happen. Now as I knew, I am scared too. I have isolated myself at home and praying to get recover soon.
Stay Home...Be Safe
