What do you guys mean discriminate pag nagka Covid? As in you wouldn’t want to see or talk to them anymore?
What do you guys mean discriminate pag nagka Covid? As in you wouldn’t want to see or talk to them anymore?
Ako kasi, I treat everyone outside of my household as suspect & that includes my brothers, sisters, nieces & other relatives, friends. Nowadays, it’s common knowledge that some people may be carriers & it is natural that we have to be careful. My brothers & sisters including their kids, when they drop by to see my mother, make it a point to wear a mask & keep a safe distance which we do likewise. Two of them, being Doctors, tested positive for Covid but I still allow them in. I think hindi na uso yung discrimination kasi with the prevalence of the disease, there is a shift in attitude towards our relationship with other people.
Stay in househelp & drivers is another matter. They cannot be tested outside & accepted when they test negative because during the interim period between testing & result, malay mo ba kung saan nag punta yun & what risky activity they may have done. The safest thing to do is to quarantine in the house, sched a PCR test then release when ok. Dilema is what if they test positive. Then everyone in the house becomes suspect.
personally i'm not very afraid naman so i don't discriminate
i've interacted with people who i later found out are IGG positive
so that means i interacted with them when they had active covid
-
di mo alam ano ang thinking ng ibang tao
i've heard/read about people who are afraid to even go near a house with suspected covid
Like what our driver did to me, treat you like you have leprosy. Do you remember the house na the neighbors barricaded it with old yero and wood para di makalabas mga owners?
I also assume that everyone and I am positive, kaya I don't come close sa mga tao sa bahay. I don't hug my family. Birthdays namin dumaan walang hug or kissPero I go out of my room naman and don't wear face mask at home (unlike when I thought I was really positive)
So how long am I supposed to quarantine myself again. Akala ko makakahinga na ko ng maluwag at safe na ko. Naiiyak tuloy ako, parang wala ng katapusan. Basta nilagnat or sipon.
sabi ni shadow pwedeng false negative so I could still have covid now? So when is safe? Oct 16 last na labas ko. Magiisip pa ko baka nakahawa ako sa bahay during my positive phase. I pray to God hindi talaga. Marami din naman nagdasal for me.
Sa sobrang paranoid ko pati sa garden/garage natatakot na ko lumabas kasi baka malanghap ko air ng mga naglalakad sa street e I don't mask naman pag nasa garage ako
sa bagaymuntik ko na i text na naman si Dr Cutie LOL
Kaya my Mom gets mad at my paranoia
BTW, I used to buy meds sa Mercury 32nd st, malaki kasi at complete. PERO my friends told me not to go there kasi baka maraming positive (na galing sa St Luke's) Another option is Mercury Glorietta, another large branch. Saan kaya mas safe?Sa Glorietta malayo hospital, but then it's a mall

Same mindset. greatest risk is putting down the mask for any reason while outside your home or getting in an enclosed space with any one outside your home for a period of time.
True, If you are alone outside the chances of getting the virus is zero. Even with some people outside as long as they are not shouting and wear masks, practice some social distancing then the risk is low. You see a lot of people now jogging/cycling/walking with some even using valved mask/lowering the mask to breathe yet you don't get reports of them getting sick.
Lower risk for places like an outdoor mall like Hi-street BGC, lessen the time inside a store and just be weary of your surroundings including things you touch.
I heard those stories too. But you can’t blame them because of all the hype this thing gets. Since this thing blew up, perception of most changed because of a better understanding of the dynamics of infection and more importantly, people had to brave the storm or else their families will go hungry. For me, the most risky is eating in an enclosed restaurant & riding with others (except family) in an a/c vehicle.
