The Record of Getting Covid.

In the afternoon on the eighteenth of this month, my colleagues and I took a bus back to my city from a county. When I got off the bus and entered my car, I felt very uncomfortable.

My throat itched, my body felt cold strengthless. I felt like I was going to get a cold.

I went to five pharmacies to buy a thermometer and cold medicine, but all of them told me that the things that I wanted were all sold out.

I went home and had a simple dinner, and slept early because I felt uncomfortable and strengthless.

The next morning, I obviously felt something wrong with my body. It was like a cold but not exactly the same.

I asked for a leave to my office and lay down on my bed to have a good rest. I felt very cold that I turned on my air conditioner to heat the room and I covered myself in a very thick quilt.

I had a fever of 38.5, and my wife asked me to take a pill of acetaminophen. Two hours later, my body temperature declined to 37.7.

At about 2 o'clock that afternoon, the fever went to 39. I had to take another pill again. I think I slept okay that night. All the symptoms were having a fever and feeling cold.

In the morning of the third day, I think the fever stopped because I suddenly felt relaxed and my body temperature was only 37.3.

Yesterday morning, I felt much better than before. My body temperature was 35.5, which meant I didn't have a fever anymore. But I still felt I was sort of having a cold: sometimes a little cough, a little runny nose and a little headache.

I thought it was the right time to take a Covid test even though I think the illness that I am having actually is. I drove to a testing point and did the test with my wife who was also having a fever.

Last night, we got our test results: both of us are Covid positive. It turns out my guess is completely correct.

Right now in China, the Covid is spreading rapidly. Take my city as an example: almost 100 percent of people have been infected with it in one to two weeks since the zero Covid policy was lifted on the seventh of this month. It seems like no one can escape from it.

Today is the fifth day since I got Covid. I will continue to rest to wait for the Covid to turn negative.

Oops, sorry about that! I misread “county” as “country.” I’ll edit my correction.

In China, an air conditioner not only can cool the air but also can heat the air.
