Thought it might be good to have a repository of experiences.

Feel free too if your immediate friend or relative has something to report.

And of course, if this thread isn’t good enough, start another thread about fellow FReepers afflicted!

Our assistant pastor’s dad passed away last night from Covid19, but he had other health issues. The dad lived in NY.

Do not know anyone closer, yet.

Too PC.

It is the China Virus.

Maybe the Kung Flu.

It might be helpful if the afflicted could add information on age,when they got it how they feel and any idea of where they think think they contracted it,if possible.

As far as I am aware, nobody that I know has been infected. We’ve all worked for institutions or companies which shut down a couple of weeks ago, with essential personnel working under strict PPE and social distancing guidance.

I happened to be on vacation for almost two weeks before the shutdown. I think I’ve been out of the house three or four times in the past month.

I had mild symptoms off and on for a few weeks. Cough, mild fever and the achy blahs. Got tired really easy. Last few days though have been mostly clear. If no further symptoms show up over the next week or so, I may consider myself over it. Getting a bit tired of the house and really need to get out even if only for a walk or a trip to the grocery store.

Please include at least the state the patient lives in. If you give the city, then please still include the state. There are at least a dozen cities named “Glendale” in the U.S.

Not me. But one of my employees has an adult son that works in a Pittsburgh hospital. He was tested and found positive.

He is in his late 20’s and is asymptotic.

Got a mailing from Senator Rand Paul, and reminded myself that his health is compromised by a partial lung removal, and has just been diagnosed as having the CCP-virus.

:(

My wife has an employee that works for her, attended a wedding in early March. Someone at the wedding was visibly ill, and likely the vector, though no one suspected anything at the time.

The employee of my wife was male, late 40s, early 50s...have very mild symptoms (low fever, light cough), and followed up with a test. Positive for COVID-19. He recovered on his own, without medical assistance or any special medication.

Location is Midwest.

My 2.5 year old niece just received a positive diagnosis. She was born almost 4 months premature so she had underlying lung issues at birth. She had a fever and cough about a week ago, and her parents were shocked by the positive result. No one else in the family (2 parents, 2 school aged siblings) have any symptoms whatsoever, despite them having all been together 24/7 for the past 2 weeks. She is back to normal as of today. She is in Pennsylvania.

Our older neighbor had the C-virus from recent cruise — had bilateral pneumonia. Was in ICU for several days then discharged to home. Wife is fine - has been healthy during the whole time. We were quarantined for 14 days due to our contact with them. We have been totally healthy. And now is the time to “shelter in place” so it has been a long month. And now we have another month to shelter ourselves.
