COVID 19 and Wegener's - musings

[drz]

I just signed up for webinar on
What We Know and Don't Know: Vasculitis and COVID-19
Description Join our vasculitis experts in a discussion about vasculitis, COVID-19 and the immune-suppressed patient. Drs. Kevin Byram, Anisha Dua, Ulrich Specks, and Jason Springer will provide an overview and answer as many questions as possible from the attendees.

Time May 23, 2020 09:00 AM in Central Time (US and Canada)

Since I think this might have some useful info. I stopped going to see Specks for followup in their GPA study and wonder how COVID-19 and GPA treatment meds might interact or what special risks we have and treatment options that might help us.

How many watched the webinar? Lot of info presented but consensus seemed to be we don't know enough yet about most of the issues. Use common sense to stay safe and stay sane.
I Liked Spechs statement that we know our body best and if some thing is off or different we should seek medical help. He did recommend taking your temp and O2 levels twice a day and to seek help if our O2 levels start dropping or if we get a higher temp since both are likely signs of COVID-19. I am going to order a no touch thermometer. We have an instant touch one in our lobby to screen visitors.
