Mask use suggestions
Hello Doctor, I'm a Covid positive patient and was moderate symptomatic on my initial stage. Now it is my 4 th day and I'm recovering fast now. I hardly have any problems except weakness and loose motion. I have been asked by my hospital sister to wear a mask even during sleep. My question is can I sleep in night without mask ? Bcoz I can't sleep with wearing a mask. Also all 7 patients in my ward is covid positive. Hence is it necessary to wear a mask atleast at night. Please suggest.

Since all patients in ur ward are covid positive , that’s why you NEED TO wear a mask at all times.
A little discomfort & lack of sleep is better than having complications from covid.
You ca take my word for it, speaking from experience, covid is really bad & complications are even worse, irrespective of age.
Get well soon.
