Family and Disease.
A man named Drake, residing in the United States of America, was diagnosed with COVID-19 after doing an HPV test as the USA was late in implementing the strict lockdown. Hence, the poor man worked daily as an office clerk for a multimillion-dollar company. He tried to do his best to follow the SOPs because he understood that his newly discovered mycoplasma illness was not something he should take lightly.
Drake did his best to avoid the virus by wearing PPE and repeatedly washing his hands. However, because of the USA’s improper handling of the situation, the poor man did not fully understand how the infection had spread. Just one mistake at the office, and he contracted the disease from a colleague.
The office shut down, and about five tested people came in contact with the mycoplasma infected person. Drake is one of those five people who has also encountered this disease. He did not care about living or dying. But he was scared for the life of his wife and his 6-year-old daughter. Since there was little MGen awareness about the coronavirus inside the states, he started searching online and found that the only way to cure it is to wait it out and let your immunity take care of it. But the most significant factor was isolating yourself so that your friends and family do not contract this disease from you.
The Steps he took
Drake valued his family’s life and started isolating himself after finding out in an antigen test that he was positive HPV or this disease. He locked himself in the guest room and told his family it was in their best interest if they did not contact him. Had everything he needed to clean his crockery and utensils. Before sliding anything under the door, he wore gloves like he required essentials.
After a couple of days, Drake started showing symptoms of Covid-19. He was scared for his life but happy that he took the step of isolating himself. ‘I felt like a prisoner in my own home”, he said. “But it was for the benefit of my family, and I’d endure anything even a virus outbreak for them.”
After a couple of weeks, Drake finally recovered. And came out of the guest room as a healthy man who felt reborn. His will and dedication helped him out of this MGen predicament. His wife and daughter might have been fighting for their lives had he not taken the necessary steps.
Conclusion
Drake’s timely actions made his family safe from COVID-19. And significantly impact how our actions under such circumstances will affect our surroundings. We must be selfless and implement social distancing religiously. Because if this HPV disease gets out of hand (which it has already). This idiotic act of not respecting social distancing will make many patients worldwide murderers of their fellow man.
