Day 7

No packed and runny nose today. I still have a light cold, but it is 20% of yesterday only.

When I traced my contact, I found that I did not contract the coronavirus from the function. No-one other than him and me came positive. Also, a whole week went by to get me positive, my first symptoms came yesterday.

The thing I want to mention today is blood oxygen saturation. In Covid-19, one tend to go in a situation called ‘silent hypoxia’ where you don’t notice that your blood oxygen level is decreasing and suddenly, you fall away.

Get one of those oximeters from the market. They are fairly accurate with an error rate of 2%. If your oxygen saturation is above 94% (or 92%) you may rest at home. But if your oxygen level drops to 88%-90%, it is the clear sign of a failing lung function. And mind this, 88%-90% is not the borderline, it is FAILED. Once the oxygen level hits, 88%-90%, it takes only 2 hours to drop it to 70%-75%, which is fatal. So if your oxygen level drops to 88%-90% get yourself a hospital bed with oxygen, or atleast get yourself an oxygen cylinder at home.
88%-90% is serious.

Pulse – normal
Blood Oxygen Level – 98%_99%
Symptoms change –
Cold at 20% of yesterday.
No Body Aches, neither in sleep, nor now.
No lightheadedness today.


How did I find N’to?
This Song – Petite by N’to.

God, I was Awestruck when I had listened to this the first time. I felt that I am on a beautiful beach feeling the waves sliding underneath my feet with the sand dissolving tingling my soles.
Ohh beaches, I am missing them…!
