Wondering if anyone has had coronavirus with type 1 yet. Did you seek hospital treatment?
I had pneumonia and sepsis about 4 years ago that has left me with wheezy chest with most cold that I get.
I've had a heavy cold over the past 2 weeks, quite wheezy at its worst. Has left me with severe sinusitis and currently on my second dose of antibiotics.
Now husband and kids have picked up presumably what I had and have each had chesty cough with it.
Very worrying times. Are T1s limiting social contact yet?
 
I think the official advice changed late this afternoon, with a significant escalation of the precautions recommended.

However I’m not sure it’s particularly clear yet how each of us need to respond.

Hopefully things will be a little clearee tomorrow! In the meantime an update has been posted on the Coronavirus Information ‘Sticky’ thread
