This article was written in Korean standards, so please refer to each country's standards for coping methods.

Also, this article was interpreted through Papago, so please note that it may not match some contexts.

I write in English because I want to inform not only Korea but also the world of the symptoms of COVID-19 that I experienced myself.

 

 

As of today, it has been three days since I was tested positive for COVID-19.
The child and wife are at the medical center and I am at home for home treatment.

First of all, if I summarize the conclusion that many people are curious about,


[Child's COVID-19 symptoms (7-year-old)]
1. Heat returns to normal.
2. My cough got worse from last night.
  * I looked up other data and found that most of them cough.
3. He has phlegm.

[Adult COVID-19 symptoms (mid to late 30s): 3rd vaccination for me, 2nd vaccination for my wife]
1. Sore throat and cold nose in the morning (medium pain)
  * I'm drinking water and eating. It automatically gets better.
2. I have a cough.
3. My wife had a high fever yesterday. (She got a fever reducer shot)

[How to take care of and deal with it]
1. Take the medicine.
2. Maintain humidity. (It's very dry because it's winter)
  * It's good to maintain 40% to 60%, but it's hard to turn on the humidifier at home.
3. Drinking water frequently: Prevent dehydration and maintain humidity in the mouth.
4. Light exercise.
5. Contact and check in advance the contact information and actions that can be taken in case of an emergency.
6. When you are mentally struggling, contact the contact number given by the health center (need to control your mind)

Today, there were 170,016 confirmed cases of COVID-19.
According to the news, 270,000 people are expected to be confirmed daily by next month.
Indeed, it is a huge number.

On the contrary, the United States and Europe, which have six times more population than Korea, have fewer confirmed cases.
It's hard to say exactly what it means, but is it a process that Korea should go through?
Or is it because Korea's quarantine is like this?

No one knows the answer, but what we all want is to be free from COVID-19.

In the past, there have been cases where these big diseases have hit our world, and of course, there have been tremendous pain and difficulties, but we have eventually overcome them, and our society has moved in a better direction.
  * The pain and difficulties cannot be expressed in words, but...

I think so again this time.
I look forward to all of us overcoming it together.

Below is the data prepared for the symptoms on Day 1 and Day 2. Please refer to it.
