Edit to add: Her test was positive. Possible exposure to first symptoms 1 week. From mild to strong symptoms ~5 days.

A relative in the UK says she likely has Covid-19. She's my cousin's son's wife. I'm not sure what to call that relationship.

She's works in a casualty department.

I'll share part of her comment:

"So.. to sum it all up, coronavirus/covid is as shitty as you’re hearing (though not everyone will have the same symptoms), if you’re feeling oddly extra tired, sleep. Keep washing your hands and all that, drink water, blah blah blah. But- I can tell you right now that all that food and toilet paper you rushed out to get was pointless because you’re not going to have a appetite/will be too tired to care about food. And if you’re not eating then you definitely will not need 80 rolls of toilet paper. To be quite honest and overshare- you will barely need that toilet paper at all!"

2. I think a lot of the TP hoarding

is to limit trips to the store for stuff you know you always need
