Getting closer to puberty. Some ‘adult’ related things start to get upregulated then.
It’s a spectrum though.
Probably better off if you’d gotten them in first grade. Or younger.
I really don’t remember having them at all. My mom saw the swollen glands and thought either mumps or dental issues. Ped reassured her, ‘just the mumps’. My baby book is a plethora of arcane medical information.
Mumps will do that too, particularly in adult men.
Yup.
‘we’ have speculated there is something(s) about this virus that ‘we’ aren’t being told right now. Greater chance of fertility/T damage would be something that would cause panic for sure.
You just think the TP raid was biblical...
Scripps Research does not agree.
And all biologists and disease experts agree it COULD be a naturally occurring RNA strand. Very few think it COULD be man made.

However it got here, we will eventually known with some certainty. And the survivors will have to decide what, if anything, can be done about it.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — In a surprise reversal, Tennessee’s top health agency announced that it will provide locations for where coronavirus cases had been confirmed after initially refusing to do so.
The agency has since provided county data for each coronavirus case, showing that four cases have been in Williamson County - a fact that had previously been kept hidden from the public. Three other cases have been confirmed in Shelby, Davidson and Sullivan counties.
The health department’s original stance to keep location data hidden from the public had sparked alarm among some officials worried the move would only stir public mistrust.
For the record, I want to be wrong about this too.
Just like I wanted to be wrong about this being a real virus and not just the chicoms doing political paybacks as was initially thought when wuhan was locked down.
selfish agnes had better things to do this spring and summer.
I hardly remember chicken pox. It was a rash. I may have had mumps worse but when the wife wanted kids once was plenty both times.
We will disagree.
I’m with you on the lisinopril for sure!! In some folks it gives them a persistent cough, a well known side effect.
Yes. It will take 5-7 days to begin to know if we are preventing spread.
You weren’t able to father children? (am i reading your post properly?)
Actually many of the deaths (particularly of the under 80 age group) are after several weeks of hospitalization.
In addition, the incubation period can be longer than a week for many cases:

I expect death rates to climb significantly for _at least_ a month, regardless of any new actions on the ground.
Our Vet emailed me with “...ten in our area...”. I assumed that was our county but who knows? I estimate the number of asymptomatic is two orders of magnitude larger so we probably had 1000 walking around.
I agree.
The ‘it only kills the old people’ numbers are the initial deaths.
It kills the old people FIRST.
The younger ones linger in the ICU for several more weeks before succumbing.
Even if they don’t succumb, it looks like they have 2 or 3 week stays. Million dollar medical bills incoming...
Knowing that half the people in the world have an IQ below 98, I think it’s important to be aware of the different psychological impacts each of the scenarios could have.
Yes, I have a strong opinion on it.
I’ll start keeping it to myself so as not to generate the counter argument.
The Mayor wasn’t specific enough. They’ll set aside their guns and use knives, fists and baseball bats.
No, i had two with two “one night only” shows.
There’s always stragglers in the corners and around the edges but they average out usually.
No positives in my county yet. I just wish this Bronchitis from hell would go away so that if I get it I will know it.
You’ll note that Trump doesn’t think so either. And he’s got access to the best of the best.
If it were a bat virus he’d be calling it that.
He’s calling it the Chinese virus.
He’s not one to play with words.
