[QUOTE="WiseChoices, post: 756588, member: 24254"] Hi Busy, It is good to be cautious and quarantine yourself right now for 14 days just to ensure you are not a carrier and won't be infecting others. I know you are scared and anxious. However, we do know that fear and worry won't help anything and that it can affect your immune system negatively. We also know that not everyone who gets exposed gets ill. And only 5% of those who get ill become severely ill. The odds are in your favor. I would try to keep my spirits up, get rest, eat well, maybe start a regiment of high doses of Vitamin C (they were giving patients intravenous Vit C in NY) and zinc, and do whatever else you do normally when trying to boost your immunity during flu season. I very much like a homeopathic remedy called Oscillococcinum. Walmart carries it. I take it at the first sign of a flu or even if my family starts to feel sick as a profilactic. It seems to help me. I know Covid-19 is not the same as flu but I think doing those things would make me feel like I am doing something to support my immune system rather than sitting around worrying. Take one day at a time and try to get your mind off the subject. If you do get symptoms, you can deal with it then. I am praying for you and your family to stay well. Much love! [/QUOTE]
