Fingers crossed, as she's had breathing difficulties in the past, albeit without any serious respiratory diagnose, AFAIK.
I will keep my fingers crossed for a good outcome for her and the others in the home. While every situation and individual is different, a friend’s mother was in a similar situation in early January in the U.K., and it was very mild and didn’t cause any issues to the best of my knowledge. I don’t know whether they were offered any medications, but my friend didn’t mention it so I suspect not.
