So if one person gets sick, the partner is likely to also get sick. But with some days of lag. So you the best case is you both are miserable for a while.
What if you decide one needs to go to the hospital? I'm trying to figure out exactly how you "go to the emergency room."
I would be inclined to call an ambulance instead. Especially if the partner is also very sick and thus not completely functional behind the wheel.
However, the partner still needs to get into the hospital to do the paperwork for the sicker spouse. IF they would let you in at all ? So how are they handling that at hospitals right now?
Our physician retired just before all this started, so we are also in the situation of not having a primary care physician & all our decades of medical records are unavailable.
And an envelope with insurance info, medication list, contact info for spouse, to give to the ambulance.
