Hey y'all doing?
I'm trying to stay healthy over here. Let me tell y'all something that happened to me yesterday. So I went to work when I got there we had a meeting and the nurse told us 12 people on the floor that I worked are tested positive for the covid-19 virus when she said that I was like I'm ready to go like I was literally trying to lowkey grab my keys but she said that she doesn't know how long those people I've been sick, so that puts me at risk like what if I worked with those people and got infected? I have been wearing mask and gloves but my eyes were exposed. The droplets can get in your mouth, nose and eyes...I have been washing my hands but what If I didn't wash them immediately after someone touched me or I touched someone and I touched my face right after? I touch my face a lot, Oh God I was panicking in my head(I am now too). I tried to stay calm because everyone else was trying to act like they got this, except this one girl cried which made me want to cry. When I see someone crying it makes me want to cry too.
I wanted to go home but I don't want to contaminate my friend. I was like okay I need a strategy so I went back to my ancestors lol my mom got a lot of tea remedy and a lot of stuff to take. since I got home I have been drinking medicine. There is a possibility that I could be infected with the virus. My problem with the place that I worked is that they didn't tell us right away who are tested positive...as a healthcare facility they should have given the people on my floor including me a full gown and sterile gloves...they did not so my eyes were exposed. Working with people who are infected is not that bad if you have gowns, gloves, shield... but they let me have my clothes that I am going home with on me while working with them (by the way I put those clothes in a bag right by the door) I really don't want to get sick. They say young people have a better chance but some young people died it doesn't matter who you are it's your immune system that will determine everything.
I wanted to get tested tomorrow but I cannot I won't be showing symptoms and it probably won't show in my system until after 6-14 days. so I have to wait and keep taking those haitian remedies. Hopefully I am not infected and if I am hopefully it doesn't get to my lungs (it would be a wrap) hopefully I get better if I am infected.
Stay safe y'all
