Summary
Comet 76214 was diagnosed with COVID-19 in late July 2021 and 28 days later was still short of breath with thick nasal mucus and nasal congestion, despite five days of amoxicillin. Drinking alcohol about three weeks in seemed to bring the symptoms back. At five weeks they were still coughing up phlegm each morning and using Augmentin and an albuterol inhaler, and were anxious about what long COVID had in store.
