I know several people that have had it, and within my family three have had it, one has died.

My wife knows two people who had it here in rural Illinois. Both are healthy and in their 50s, and they had flu-like symptoms for several days and recovered. A nursing home in our area had 5 or 6 residents die from COVID (or at least they SAID it was the cause). Several weeks later, the same nursing home celebrated about 10 residents who survived after testing positive.

My uncle in law died of COVID-19 but he’s been in declining health for years so the virus just went in for the final blow.

I splash on Pinaud Clubman After Shave every morning just to check. In the evening, I use gin to check

Northern Virginia. My co-worker and his 60-something mother (a nurse) contracted it in April. She is a legal immigrant from Nigeria. He is a black man in his 30’s with a family history of hypertension. Neither were hospitalized. He said he felt awful for a few days, then decided to get out and walk in the sun every day. He said he started feeling better every day and in about 2 weeks felt 100%.

He also said that they recoded him as 2 separate cases when he was tested twice.

Obesity is the number one “comorbidity” factor for Covid deaths—according to Dr Birx.

It is really sad that it is too politically incorrect to mention that obesity is the number one correlation with dying from coronavirus, possibly after infirm old age.

People sometimes get terrible diseases about which they can do nothing. It is not easy to do something about obesity but it can be done.

“ Simple solution to the pandemic,,,,Make HCQ and Azithromycin OTC drugs so anyone who develops a cough and/or fever can go the nearest drug store and self medicate with the drugs along with Zinc Sulfate with correct dosage within 48 hours of symptoms and pandemic over.,,”

Our 35-year-old son got Covid19 with fever and chills the first day and respiratory and a lot of coughing by the second day. We had gotten him HCQ, Z pack and zinc, he had it on hand and when he found out the correct dosage he took it , he quit coughing in 24 hours and in three days he was well. It’s disgusting that the governors, the medical boards, the Pharmacy boards and the Democrats have made this medication, a very common, old and widely used medication, a political football.

“Thankfully, we told her early one to get on zinc and vitamins.”

Vitamins seem to be important too.
I’ve been taking extra vitamins. A lot of us test low in Vitamin D and staying in the house doesn’t help.

Obesity causes high blood pressure, diabetes, and serious strain on the rest of the body’s organs. This is why reality shows like “My Big Fat Fabulous Life” should NOT be on TV—they try to normalize and even glamorize obesity.

I wish President Trump would put someone on the covid team who believes in HCQ and zinc and mot the drugs they have a financial motive to support.

It’s not just anecdotal, there is plenty of research that shows it works. I’ve read a lot of it.

My nephew, about 50 years old, tested positive about a month ago. He works in Mexico, just across the border from San Diego. Was really sick for about a week. He’s back to work now but still a bit “hungover.”

My brother from NYC got it bad. Stomach ache for two days and a runny nose for as long.

We live in NE Florida, my neighbor across the street went to Disney in Mid-February to meet friends...when she came back she got sick for a few days, this happened before anyone heard about Covid-19....

About 2 weeks ago she went to give blood because in Florida they do an automatic antibody test for Covid-19, her results came back positive that she did have Covid-19...

My wife and her during the entire time she was sick walked our dogs daily shoulder to shoulder...my wife nor I got sick, my neighbor’s husband got slightly sick and her son never had any symptoms....

"The crews I fly with have been taking 15mg zinc and vitamins K2 and D3 - nobody has gotten sick yet."

How much K2 & D3?

“Not sure of the purpose of this thread but Covid is real and deadly. BUT.... it is no different than the flu, cancer, driving, any other number of things in life. As I tell my fearbro firends.. we are all going to get it, let’s get it and God will sort out the rest. Open up the country.”

The purpose is just to get Freepers experiences with Covid.

I agree with you though. Time to open up the country. ANTIFA is taking advantage of people's fears and ruining our cities. How long can we survive.

Those that need to isolate themselves should stay home and wear a mask. I'm 71 and don't wear a mask whenever possible. I have my HCQ drug stash just in case and also take more vitamins.

If masks worked, those wearing them would be safe.

Where do you get quercetin? And, how much do you take?
