Thanks. I believe that’s pretty much the same as I’d read before. Not 100% sure as I didn’t have the article saved.
But, regardless, sis-in-law’s hubby is over 2 weeks past onset of symptoms, with pneumonia in progress, so unless he had something else that weakened him to COVID hopping on later*, he’s past the window...
*Hard to sort out from this end, and maybe even at their end, at this point. As I know you’ve seen, health care for average folks in 3rd world countries is a whole ‘nother ball game than what we have here. :-(
(as someone in the rest of the family could have exposed him to COVID in the course of care, as they all seem to have it)
Oops, kinda messed that up. But it’s decipherable... :-)
