My 82- year old neighbor last year around April was one of the first who got really sick from China Virus. He was turned away at the county hospital due to lack of beds.
Basically, he was sent home to die.
Even fainted at the bus stop. Wrote his will at night and slept..
Fever broke 2 days later. THIS is a chain-smoking dude who occasionally calls an escort service, I kid you not. Went back to get tested and negative. He had antibodies for his age.
County hospital asked for plasma and he told them to F themselves because he was still sore about them leaving him to die.
A guy I think I would like to hang around some.
Smokers actually fair better even though they shouldn’t.
My hero.
