Dragging on. Purely willing a virus to leave your body doesn't appear to make it go any quicker. At least I've cleared my airways to sleep for a few hours now. Although when I lay down my lungs begin to collect fluid and my throat tickles and the coughing starts. The jury is still out if I will be deemed well enough to fly home.
Yes, I believe I am reliable to convert the days I was sick whilst on annual leave to sick leave. So, I could save those days for another time. I'm not extending my stay though, can't polish a turf.
