How sick is she.

I am watching to see if the theory of taking ibuprofen makes it worse...

also the theory about more men getting it.

“also the theory about more men getting it.”

Someone sent me an article about the quantity of virus receptors by ethnicity. I can’t find it, but in essence, Chinese males have the most receptors and were, thus, the hardest hit. All Orientals have a very high number of receptors. By race and sex, near the bottom of the list was Caucasian females. Caucasian males had more receptors than females, but fewer than many other races. Having fewer receptors doesn’t mean you won’t get it. It means your chances of getting it are relatively lower.

She’s getting sicker but has not yet suffered severe respiratory distress, so she’s not in the hospital.

My friend just told me her oldest sister has it. She sounds pretty sick. 103 temp, diarrhea, sore throat.
