My partner tested positive for COVID-19 on January 19th. After isolating for almost 10 days, her test came back negative. Is it safe for us to start living together again and be intimate?

Since your partner tested negative after isolating for 10 days, it is generally safe to resume living together. However, it's important to ensure she's fully recovered and free of any lingering symptoms. If you're still concerned, it's always a good idea to consult a healthcare provider for personalized advice.

I'm dealing with a viral fever, and while paracetamol is helping a bit with the fever, it only reduces the temperature for a short time. I'm wondering if there are any antibiotics I can take that might help more effectively. Any advice would be appreciated!

Hey, I'm a bit concerned and could use some advice. My wife and I, both 35, went through mild Covid symptoms recently and thankfully, we're negative nowit's been about three weeks. During our treatment, we didn't take Aspirin or any other blood thinners. Should we consider taking any blood thinners now that we're recovering? Any guidance would be really helpful.
