Usually associated with sleep apnoea although they can have other respiratory uses.

First I've heard of application in a case of straight Covid though however he may have specific medical requirements based on his medical history or presentation.

Just like @RAFUH mentions, CPAPs have been used loads during covid. Depending on how high the air pressure is put, they will give your lungs a thorough workout I can assure you!
 
My step brother's step son (we're a complicated family) has tested positive.
He seems to be okay so far, but really worried about my step bro as he is immunocompromised and quadriplegic. He's negative so far, but still in the same house.

My son was pinged the other week, and although he never tested positive, his carers at his house managed to keep him isolated from the other house member who would be toast if she got it.

It was a pain, (for them and my lad), but not difficult, if that makes sense. Basically, for example he wanted to be in the garden, (masked and alone), he would ask them, (by text), and they would clear the route from his bedroom to the front door, and shut every connecting door along the way. Sanitised the house to an inch from its life for months anyrate.

Yeah...just don't see him or his wife being that obsessive about it. Part of my worry.
 
Hospital figures - 74 deaths were announced today, down 3 on yesterday and the exact same total as last Friday. 61 deaths were in English hospitals, down 3 on yesterday and up 1 on last week. The 7 day rolling average remains the same at 71.29

For the 60 day cut off, 113 deaths were announced today, up 15 on yesterday and up 11 on last Friday. The 7 day rolling average rises to 99.43
 
Going back in the office has been delayed from Sept to at least Jan next year, yesssssssss.

A few months ago I wouldn't be as happy with this but now I'm pretty much living a normal life but not haven't to commute etc. The Dream.
They had a survey of all staff at my place and something like 90% preferred homeworking but when management did a presentation focussing on the results they were like ‘10% of employees want to return to office work’ as a way of trying to push the return to the office.
Will probs look for something different if there’s too much time spent in the office. This is the new norm now.
 
On a fairly full bus today and there was myself and one other person wearing a mask ; it's like the virus was a figment of people's imaginations.

Getting worse weekly in Liverpool. I had one on today in a supermarket and I reckon about 20% of people had one on. I kept mine on but I was really debating taking it off. Some people where in the 60s or older too. I only wear it for other people but whats the point if nobody has one on?
