Worrying about their families was the worst part of testing positive for COVID-19, say two survivors from the Philippines, Drew and Yang.
Drew, 35 and a father of one, works in the aviation industry. After developing symptoms, he tested positive for COVID-19.
“The stress and anxiety were very difficult to handle because I didn't know if I had infected my family already. I worried that they might not be able to handle what I was going through if they got infected by me.
“That’s what scared me the most.”
Meanwhile, Yang, 26, a manufacturing employee who lives with her parents and other family members, began wearing a face mask and avoided touching the handrails in public transport as coronavirus cases rose.
Still, three days after her birthday, she became ill. She had to tell her parents that she had tested positive.
“I saw the sadness and feeling of defeat in their eyes.”
“Why did I get this disease?,” she asked herself at the time. “What if I infected them? What if I die and leave my family because of this?”
After weeks of isolation, Yang recovered. When her swab tests came back negative, she cried tears of relief, and so did her father.
Today, she wants everyone to protect themselves to protect others.
“We have to be more responsible with our actions, and especially with keeping safe.”
Drew, who also followed the advice to isolate, also recovered. The experience also taught him a lesson.
“Let’s make sure our sources of information are correct. The first people we should approach are the doctors, since they the ones who know what we should do.”
Both Drew and Yang are keen to help every individual, family and community stay safe by sharing their stories and encouraging frequent hand washing, covering coughs and sneezes, maintaining at least one meter physical distance from others, cleaning surfaces, limiting time in enclosed or crowded spaces.
