"A few weeks ago, I got to my French class early and sat down on a bench in the
hallway, wearing my mask. I’m a graduate student at UC Berkeley and always have
to arrive to classes early, due to being out of breath from walking—a side
effect of my vasculitis, an autoimmune disorder that causes my blood vessels to
become inflamed.
An unmasked person sat next to me, and started to cough.
Four days later, I tested positive for COVID-19.
After developing a cough and respiratory issues, I was able to get a
prescription for antivirals, and after six days, my respiratory symptoms got
better. But I still feel out of breath and exhausted, which also means COVID-19
likely triggered a vasculitis flare."
