we had a guy come to our ER claim he had visited is sister in Seattle who had covig. got into an ER bed.....only problem is somebody knew him and knew he had no sister in seattle, but was just looking to get his drugs.....
it has to be reiterated....do not go to the ER...call your doctor..he/she will quiz you about your symptoms and tell you what to do...mostly, stay home and take care of yourself.
Agreed for most, for now, but...
It is pretty clear that infected persons with mild to no symptoms can spread COVID-19, in the 2nd week, very effectively.
On a personal basis, I (wifey too) HAVE to help out with my Mom, who’s 89 and fragile. I can limit my own exposure, but not entirely. Plus I already have some “bug” (almost certainly not COVID-19) and don’t want to expose Mom. IMO, this country needs to crank out 100 million masks, yesterday.
