What extra precautions should bronchiectasis patients take?

Patients with bronchiectasis should take appropriate preventive measures as they are at a higher risk of showing COVID-19 symptoms or having a more severe infection than others.

Most patients with respiratory diseases will recover from COVID-19. If symptoms of a viral infection appear and patients have traveled to a high-risk area in the past 40 days, they should self-isolate at home for 14 days. They should maintain their daily care regimens and speak to their healthcare providers for any specific queries about their personal health.

Generally, individuals with chronic medical conditions, including respiratory diseases, should take extra precautions to minimize the risk of getting COVID-19. In addition to the general preventive measures listed above, patients with these conditions should:

Stock up on necessary medications and supplies that can last for a few weeks.

Avoid crowds and non-essential travel.

Stay at home as much as possible.

Is there any specific advice for family members and caregivers?

Family members and caregivers of people with chronic diseases such as bronchiectasis should take appropriate precautions and take extra care to avoid bringing COVID-19 home. They should constantly monitor patients and stock medicines and other necessary supplies that can last for several weeks. Storing extra non-perishable food can help minimize trips to the grocery store.

Yes,I think you should self isolate for the 12 weeks. Look after yourself,it’s better if you don’t put your real name on this forum.

Please stay safe
