Diary of an active person at home: worried about falling asleep with a high fever, I made an appointment with my mother to report my safety regularly.

Yao Rui Liu, a reporter with extreme eyes.

Recently, the joint prevention and control mechanism of the State Council issued a notice to further optimize the epidemic prevention and control measures. Asymptomatic infected persons and mild cases with home isolation conditions generally adopt home isolation.

How to isolate COVID-19 at home correctly after infection? A reporter interviewed three citizens infected with COVID-19 and shared their experiences in family isolation treatment.

Some of these three citizens are parents of a family of four. In order to take care of the children, the couple take turns cooking. Some people live alone in Beipiao and worry about falling asleep with a high fever, so they make an agreement with their mother to report their safety every morning. Others are patients who have been infected with COVID-19 virus twice. She felt that the second infection was not as flustered as the first one.

A family of four was infected one after another, and the husband and wife changed to cooking.

Narrator: Mr. Dong, who lives in Tianjin, has a family of four infected.

65438+On February 9th, I suddenly felt sore all over and slightly cold, but I didn't take it seriously at that time. That night, I began to have a fever, which once reached 38.5℃. I guess it's infected. At noon the next day, I took out the antigen reagent and conducted a self-inspection. Sure enough, I was "recruited".

At this time, local policies have changed. After reporting to the community, I was isolated at home as required. Besides me, there are my wife and two sons at home, aged 4 and 10 respectively. I am worried that living together will infect them, especially children's resistance is not as good as that of adults, so I decided to live in a separate room with them, and eat separately from going to the toilet.

10 On that day, my body temperature couldn't drop and my body hurt badly. All the bones have obvious tingling, and my waist feels broken and I can't sit up. My throat is also very uncomfortable, and I have difficulty swallowing, so I have to drink water crazily. I have a high fever in bed at night, so I have to get out of bed for a walk and drink some warm water, and my symptoms will be relieved. I can't take it anymore. I took a piece of ibuprofen.

It is not easy to buy medicine during home isolation. I prescribed several boxes of ibuprofen in the hospital because of toothache, but I didn't expect it to come in handy at this time. Later, a friend couldn't buy painkillers online and offline, and I even gave them to him to solve his urgent needs.

1 1 On the same day, the fever dropped on the third day after symptoms appeared, but my two sons began to have fever symptoms, and my wife also had a slight fever that night. After antigen testing, it is also "positive". I thought that since the whole family was infected, we should simply resume living together and take care of each other.

During the quarantine period, Tianjin local takeout can still be delivered normally. We didn't go out for those days, and we basically relied on takeout. At first, my wife was in charge. While taking care of me, she has to take care of the children, do housework and cook. It's really hard. Later, my wife was also infected. We mainly rely on takeout, and we really don't have the strength to cook.

The infection did not affect our appetite. Our family still eats normally, but my mouth always feels tasteless and there is not enough salt in the food. I ate a lot of limes and felt very comfortable. Every night, after sorting the domestic garbage, we tie the bag mouth and put it in the trash can in the corridor.

After a night's rest, on June 5438+02, both sons had a fever, so my wife and I were relieved. My symptoms are beginning to improve. I don't have a fever anymore, but my throat feels sticky and a little congested. There are also some throat lozenges for children at home.

I feel that there is still a difference between this time and the common cold. The pain in my body is even stronger. The most common cold is physical weakness, and this time I feel biting pain. Fortunately, it didn't last long. It took me almost five days from the onset on the 9th to 14. /kloc-on the morning of 0/4, I tested the antigen of my eldest son. He has turned negative, and my youngest son has improved, except my wife.

It's my turn to take care of my family these two days, and cooking and washing clothes are my responsibility. I'm going to wait for my wife to recover, and the whole family will be cloudy. I'm going to disinfect the whole family, and all the bedding and used things will be disinfected again.

I'm afraid I'll fall asleep. I made an appointment with my mother to report my peace every once in a while.

Narrator: Xiao Di, born in 1995, now lives in Tongzhou District, Beijing.

The fever came so suddenly that I was completely unprepared. When I got up on the morning of February 9, 65438, I was in a groggy state. My temperature is over 38℃, and I have a fever. Just the day before, I was still commuting and working in the company. I have always had confidence in my physique. I never thought I would have a fever. I only have an electronic thermometer at hand, and I don't have any cold medicine and antigen detection reagents.

Recently, colleagues around me have been infected one after another, and the symptoms all start with fever. The more I think about it, the more I panic. When I picked up my mobile phone to buy medicine, I found that all the cold medicines nearby were sold out, so it was difficult to get them in stock on the online platform, and it would take several days. But the body can't wait, so I have to ask my friends in the same city and my family in Hubei for help.

A friend 20 kilometers away sent me two bags of 999 granules, a board of ibuprofen and several antigen kits by express delivery. For me now, this is a life-saving medicine. On the same day, my mother sent me a batch of commonly used medicines from my hometown in Hubei, including Lianhua Qingwen and Pudi Lan.

The day after the fever, I was diagnosed. My most obvious symptom is a high fever. From the 9th to 1 1, I had repeated fever, reaching above 39℃ at one time, accompanied by severe headache. Every night before going to bed, I take a piece of ibuprofen, which helps me to sleep peacefully and not wake up in the middle of the night.

Xiao Di detected positive source: interviewee.

I live alone in an apartment near the company, but fortunately I don't have to worry about implicating my roommate. But there is no heating in the apartment, and the air conditioner makes me feel suffocated. I quickly ordered electric blankets, thick quilts and some disinfection supplies. At this time, I found that my previous preparation was too inadequate. I must study now, follow the advice of doctors and experts, learn how to use drugs and how to relieve symptoms by drinking water.

Sudden infection, in addition to physical discomfort, I also had great psychological anxiety. I was worried that I would fall asleep with a high fever, so I made an appointment with my mother to send me a message at 9 o'clock every morning to confirm my safety. During the fever, the company sent some antigen reagents, and the medicine sent from home also arrived, which greatly eased my anxiety and anxiety. After all, there is enough medicine.

I continued to work while I was at home. The work is not complicated. I can lie down and rest after finishing my work quickly. As for eating, how simple it is. I usually cook a meal by myself, cook some quick-frozen jiaozi, and order takeout. But recently, the delivery range of take-away food has become smaller and the delivery time has become longer. I mostly order fast food, which is faster than other stores.

On June 5438+02, the fever dropped. But my throat began to ache. I have phlegm, but I can't cough it up. Very uncomfortable. I bought some pills to moisten my throat and bought some pears with the experience of netizens, which really improved. By 13 and 14, I was already weakly positive. At present, the sound is also recovering, but the taste and smell are somewhat out of order, and the feeling will soon turn cloudy.

Xiao Di prepared pears to relieve the sore throat.

Many of my colleagues have become negative and returned to their jobs. During the infection, except for the initial lack of preparation, there was some panic, and the later process was not as painful and difficult as expected. Take medicine on time, have a good rest, and recover faster. I'm going to wait until the weather turns cloudy, go out to get my ears pierced and get a manicure to welcome Christmas beautifully.

After nearly three years, I was infected again, not as flustered as I was the first time.

Narrator: Sister La, now lives in Wuhan.

On February 2, 65438, Miss Jie, who had just lifted the blockade, came to play at home. That night, she felt her throat was dry and sore, and thought it was because she turned on the heating. In the early morning of the 3rd, my young sister WeChat left a message telling me that she had found "mixed yang" in the amplified nucleic acid and had made a single tube to remind me not to go out for the time being. That night, Miss Sister's nucleic acid result was confirmed as positive. So, I started home isolation.

No.3 has sore muscles and sore throat. My temperature is 37.8℃ in the morning and 39℃ at night. Most of the time, I am sleepy. After waking up, I tried to drink water and supplement vitamin C. Although I had a bad appetite, I still insisted on cooking pumpkin porridge and noodles and eating some digestible food in soup. On the morning of the 4th, the body temperature hovered around 37.5℃ and rushed to 38.5℃ in the afternoon. It doesn't hurt in other places, but the throat is still very dry and stinging, like peeling throat, and it is "sour" when swallowed.

By the 5th, the body temperature had dropped to 37.3℃ in the morning and slightly increased at night, but it did not exceed 37.8℃. On this day, there were symptoms similar to a cold, such as stuffy nose, runny nose and cough. The back of my head hurts a little because of my bad cough.

On the 6th, my temperature finally returned to the normal range. At the same time of reducing fever, various symptoms improved obviously, and the sense of smell and taste gradually returned to normal. No.7 finally got the antigen test paper, and finally confirmed that he was "Yang" after self-test.

I was infected with COVID-19 in early 2020, which is the second time. For the first time, I had a fever for 7 days, during which my temperature never dropped below 38℃. After the fever symptoms ended, there was a state of cough, diarrhea and fatigue, which lasted for about 2 months.

Although there are obvious symptoms of fever, sore throat and body aches this time, it is much better than the first time. Most importantly, in terms of psychological pressure, I am not as flustered as when I was first diagnosed.

Therefore, I can calmly plan the home isolation scheme. These days when I was diagnosed, I lived alone in the guest room. The door is closed, the window is open all day, and the other areas of my house are also ventilated. Because there is only one bathroom at home, it must be shared. This area is always ventilated. After I use it, I will also spray it with medical alcohol in time for disinfection.

If I leave my small guest room, I will also wear a mask. Things that are easy to touch, such as door handles, will also be disinfected in time. In terms of food, my husband cooked during that time. All meals are delivered by my family. If you don't contact me, you will receive them. My chopsticks and cups are very special. After use, they will clean it with a disposable rag. I also use the dishwasher to sterilize at high temperature every day.

Because of the sudden incident, I didn't have time to reserve medicine at that time, so I didn't take medicine during the whole process of isolation at home. Only drink plenty of water and supplement vitamin C.

At present, my physical condition has greatly improved, but I still have a cough. However, on June 5438+05, my children and mother also started to have a fever. I hope they will recover soon.
