@Duderridesalot @j_thePA Very uncool.... Despite disease severity, I caution patients to maximise rest for 6 weeks before restarting exercise. Arbitrary number, but based on 30 years of seeing pneumonectomy pneumonia in young people. Systemic inflammation doesn't heal quickly☹️☹️

Dani, My rule is nothing for 6-8 weeks. The inflammation continues long after the fever and cough. Keep your HR as low as possible. One of the few things we know can limit the risk of Long C-19. Same rule as any pneumonia or major illness.

So NSW still has 10k cases/day <50% are considered "fully vaccinated" 5-11yo zero fully vaccinated. BA2 probably spreading, more contagious with suggestions that Sotruvimab might be less effective. Yep👍🏻 Time to unwind everything🥳 Good luck with that, Premier🤞🏻
