My God!
When I envision this happening to me in my mind, it plays out just like you described. Rapid onset followed by death.
That is just stunning.
I am in NW Florida, 25 miles east of Pensacola, small town, but big enough.
I spoke to my cousin on Long Island, NY yesterday.
Her husband is a retired high school teacher on Long Island.
She told me that the parents of one of her husband’s former students routinely spend the winter in the Palm Beach area.
This husband and wife are (or were) in the early 1970’s.
They both contracted the coronavirus in Florida recently and ended up in the same hospital room. The two of them died within 15 minutes of each other recently. Awful.
Am I going to die tonight ?
