I’m sorry, I’m trying to find where I read this- It was a tweet from a government body, might have been CDC, or HSE or NHS, I’m sorry but I can’t recall which, it was over a year ago. Citing some reasonably reliable evidence that people who tried to keep working/exercising/staying active despite being rather sick wound up having longer lasting symptoms.
I’m sorry to hear about your partner, I hope it improves
All good. Wasnt trying to put you on the spot. Just looking for info on the topic, and what you mentioned was something new to me, so I wanted to read up on it.
Found this, not the original thing I had seen… The thing I remember was actually someone else quote tweeting the CDC or similar’s advice, with the tweeter adding “seemingly if you get sick to reduce the risk of longer lasting symptoms you must channel potato”, but that was just a gag of course.
I just read this Time article and it might help her in some way. For what its worth, in my profession I speak to a lot of people about their circumstances and have spoken to several people with longer lasting symptoms (mainly brain fog and fatigue) and all of them continued to improve continuously over time.
