Hey, my dad tested positive back in February. He was in the hospital for about 5 days and got 6 vials of remdesivir. It's been a month since then, and we just got his HRCT scan done. The results show a CT score of 725. Should I be worried about this? Does it mean he's still dealing with pneumonia?

I'm curious and a bit worried about something that's been happening to me recently. I've been dealing with GERD for about four years and have been on medication for it. But over the last three months, I've been experiencing some breathing issues and chest tightness while walking and talking. It's frustrating because I feel the need to take deep, relaxing breaths, but I can't seem to get a full breath or feel any relief from trying. Do you have any idea what might be causing this?

I've been struggling with a stuffed nose and trouble breathing for the past month, plus some chest pain for the last two weeks. I've seen a few doctors and tried medications for acidity, but nothing seems to help. I'm really anxious about whether this could be COVID-19, and I'm having trouble sleeping at night because of it. What could be going on?
