Hello,
Thanks for choosing health care magic for posting your query.
I have gone through your question in detail and I can understand what you are going through.
Its not advisable for a person with low immunity to visit a hospital especially an infected person. It would be wise to cancel the trip and stay back home. People do understand.
Hope I am able to answer your concerns.
