Last night I received news that an old friend of mine is in ICU with COVID-19.
He had been taken inro hospital on Friday and tested, but the family had kept quiet until results were in.
His wife is stuck in their small flat in Camden, but her married son has moved in with her (self-isolating at present), leaving his own wife and sons in North London. The wife hasn't been tested, despite being in close contact... so now she and their son are potentials.
My friend is currently stable and on oxygen via a mask (I hope not due to a lack of respirators). Of course, nobody can visit him and the family only get a once a day update from the hospital.
This sh*t just got real.
Just because I'm paranoid, it doesn't mean they're not out to get me
