Stop worrying/ thinking. it always create more mess. Overthinking always lead you to negative thinking. Be cautious. Remember Corona SOPs. Just follow them. Your daughter should take these cautions. Like goes straight to room when return n take a bath. Only then greet you. it will be little burden in beginning but she should remember that your immunity is compromised. Give it some time. Meanwhile focus on yourself only have rest pamper yourself. Stop worrying. You are stronger than you think. 💪 ❤️

You can’t get PML from a respiratory virus. It’s caused by a virus that you very likely already have in your body. If you haven’t been on Ocrevus for more than two years, first of all, don’t worry too much just yet. All the ‘memory cells’ your body made are still floating around, protecting you. You’ll still get sick, but your body is able to mount a fast response. Even after 2 years, there isn’t a big drop in immunity - B cells are only one part of your immune system, you still have the other parts. So you’ll get better from your illnesses (it (might) take longer and you (might) get more of them. Especially if over 60. Or you could be just fine. Not everyone gets side effects.
