Whenever we hear that someone is unwell, we tend to drop them a get-well-soon message to check upon them. But while doing this with someone covid positive we need to be careful.  A COVID-positive patient is already going through a lot, and the last thing they want are conversations that don’t make them feel better. So here are few things that you should never say to a covid positive person:

• • “How did you get infected?”
  • “You should have been more careful.” 

• • “Why didn’t you tell me you got COVID?”
  • “How are you feeling now”?
  • “I think you should get hospitalized,”

• • You don’t seem very ill
  • It’s good you’ve got it over and done with
  • You are lucky you’ve got the antibodies now
  • “Take good rest”

• “Do some home remedies as well”
• “You should’ve get tested before”

Instead, things that you should say:

• • Have a light-hearted conversation, talk about how they feel 
  • Keep checking on them
  • Ask them if they need any help 
  • Just a small “get well soon” text

• Tell them they can call you whenever you need them 
• Do something special for them like social media posts, send them homemade food, or a greeting.
