Question

I'm currently on MDR drugs and have been for the past 16 months. Initially, I was on capreomycin injections daily, along with thiomide E 750 mg, pyrazinamide 2000 mg, moxifloxacin 400 mg, and clofazimine 100 mg. Now my doctor is suggesting that I stop the medication, but some people are saying I should continue for 18 to 24 months. Can you help me understand if I should stop the medication as advised or continue for a longer duration? I'm really worried about what's best for my health.

Question

What are the stages of infection?

Question

I'm really concerned about how quickly someone with Covid-19 can spread it to others. Like, do they start spreading the virus right after they get infected, or does it take a few days? I'm trying to figure out if there's a period where they aren't contagious. Could you shed some light on this?
