Cheating Husband Catches Coronavirus During Secret Trip; Why You Shouldn’t Take Ibuprofen for Coronavirus Symptoms; and If You Have This Blood Type, You Might Be More Vulnerable to Covid-19.
A married woman is self-isolating after her husband confessed to public health officials that he tested positive for Covid-19.
While his wife believes he was on a business trip in the UK, he was actually in Italy having an affair with an unnamed woman. His wife still has no idea about what actually happened.
A source told The Sun, “He thought he had the perfect alibi to carry out his affair, but hadn’t reckoned on the coronavirus meltdown. The patient is just relieved he got home before flights were canceled–that would have taken some explaining. He’s in a blind panic, but more about his adultery being exposed rather than his health.”

The World Health Organization has issued a warning about ibuprofen during the coronavirus outbreak — anti-inflammatory drugs have the potential to worsen the effects of the virus.
WHO spokesman Christian Lindmeier spoke to reporters in Geneva, telling them that the UN health agency’s experts are “looking into this to give further advice.
“In the meantime, we recommend using rather paracetamol [acetaminophen] and do not use ibuprofen as a self-medication. That’s important.”
He added that if ibuprofen has been “prescribed by the healthcare professionals, then, of course, that’s up to them.”
He stressed that those using anti-inflammatory drugs should discuss them with their doctor.

Having a stroke triggered by afib is a serious health worry for many, but it turns out that your blood type might be an indicator of even more.
A study in China revealed that people with blood type A might be more vulnerable to the Covid-19 virus. Those with blood type O might actually be more resistant.
Researchers said they need to do more work on the study. But they suggested that medical facilities and governments should consider blood type differences when treating patients with the virus.
“People of blood group A might need particularly strengthened personal protection to reduce the chance of infection,” wrote the researchers.
“In contrast, ‘blood group O had a significantly lower risk for the infectious disease compared with non-O blood groups,” said the paper published on Medrxiv.org on March 11.
The study was conducted by doctors and scientists across China, including Wuhan, Beijing, Shenzhen, and Shanghai. It has not been peer-reviewed, and there could be risks involved in using the study, warned the authors.
