I would think it’s okay to use. The main issue with cpap/bipap is they put virus everywhere on infected people. If you love alone or everyone is infected, not a big deal


Wife and three kids, so if I come down with it, I’ll lock myself in our bedroom. My wife is the nurse who has to work everyday, so the likelihood is I would catch it from her. But you’re saying it sprays the air and the virus everywhere. Doesn’t affect me if I’m positive, but could spread it easier to others. Got it.

Thanks, friend!

This virus is so so contagious. It seems like the CPAP is a moot point. If you have it your wife and kids are going to get it no matter what you do if you live in the same house.

I figure that's likely, yes. I'll still separate myself as soon as I know there's an issue, just on the off-chance I might catch myself in time.

Saying its so, so contagious is a hyperbole.

There have been plenty of cases of people testing positive and their spouses not

Yeah but apparently, the viral load you are exposed to can affect how sick you get. Better safe than sorry.

Ok guys, I am gonna go ahead and go. Hopefully only breathing treatments. I just fear they keep me. I don't want to go because I fear that I will have to say. I am just scared of the hospital but I will go. Getting ready now. Thanks guys.

I just wanted to say "thank you" and "God bless you" to everyone on the medical front lines right now. I would be absolutely petrified if my mom was still reporting to her old job, but then again, I'm pretty worried right now with her and dad hunkering down at home.

Many of us are thinking of you, praying for you, and saluting you. Stay safe.

Anyone outside of China really believe China's claim that they've only had 82,000 cases?

They have buildings that nearly house that many residents.

People don't like hospitals because they don't want to be in denial they are sick, go man, only good things can happen

Godspeed, data. Take your phone and keep us updated. Don’t be afraid. I’ve had to go through a number of tests and surgeries over the years and my attitude is it may not be comfortable, but they know what they’re doing. Whatever they have to do to keep me alive, go for it.

You’ll be okay, brother.

Consider calling your primary doc on the way there .. idk why but just they've taken good care of you and will likely want to know.
