Covid Update. Answers for curious minds - How's my health, doc? - E-book - ePub

You are on the verge of experiencing the greatest amount of freedom that you've had in over a year: the freedom to meet friends where you like, and go where and when you like. All thanks to the coronavirus vaccines. Protection that scientists developed at warp speed. Until that time, though, you'll have to make more decisions than you've ever had to make before, and some of these will be medical decisions.
Are vaccines safe? Will they cause infertility? Should you touch that delivered parcel? Can your kids infect you? How long after contact can I expect Covid symptoms? How do you strengthen your immune system? When and which test? Can you deal with Covid yourself, or should you see a doctor?  While answers are readily found through a quick google search, what you discover may not be entirely accurate.
Be careful with "research" information you find on the Internet or social media. In some cases, it can be hard to tell what is true and what is false. In some cases, pandemic information is not based on science or evidence. This book seeks to provide comfort that the information provided is scientific and evidence-based. When evidence is lacking, or unsupported, an opinion is offered. An opinion based on over 20 years of physician practice.  Enjoy your upcoming freedom.
Until then, I hope these answers help keep you safe.
