I don't know anyone personally who has or had covid. Would anyone like to share their experiences and also their medical regimen.
Hospital mishaps are the third leading cause of deaths in America in other years.
I believe I had it in febuary,of course no-one was testing back then so no proof,but I certainly had the symptoms they describe today.I have had my brother and 3 of his children tested positive and had the symptoms in the past few weeks.Complained mostly of tiredness,loss of taste and smell.The hospital that confirmed all of them told them to go home,take aspirin and hide for 14 days.No other treatment was ever prescribed or used.They all including myself are fine today.
The question to ask is how many people here know someone who got the flu or have they themselves ever had the flu? I would say quite a lot would say yes. Me personally I’ve had it and I know someone who died from it. So why aren’t we being mandated to wear a mask and “social distance” over the flu?
Southwest Florida: No 11 fraudulent positives at testing center.
No of 1 married couple that had it. Fatique, sore throat. Lasted about 1 week. Someone in the husband’s business got it and he took it home to wife.
If you’re under 70,don’t live in a nursing home and don’t have certain underlying conditions (diabetes,lung disorders,weakened immune system) and you got the Wuhan Flu at all it was very probably no worse than the typical flu.
Salamander jokes.
Har.
:D
a couple of friends in our Corvette Club caught it and came out okay, and they’re not young chickens either.
At 70, I now have 3 co-morbidities (CHF, T1 Diabetes and COPD) and am extremely careful to stay away from crowds. I take 18 pills in the morning — 13 Rx & 5 OTCs — and 7 pills in the evening — 5 Rx & 2 OTC. OTCs include D3 (5,000iu), C (1,000iu), and Zinc (60mg). I don’t know anyone who has had it, but cases are stabilized, and deaths are way down, here.
And the particulars of those five are...?
I don’t know anyone but more importantly, neither does my doctor, who literally has *thousands* of patients.
Nobody.
Zip.
Don’t have it an no no one who does. Firm in my belief its real but way over hyped
I live in Fuquay.
Co worker died Easter weekend. We assume wuflu. He told us that his doctor recommended he stay home and go to the emergency room if he got worse. He was overweight, and a heavy smoker, probably in his 40s.
He was found deceased in his condo when his family could not reach him.
2 acquaintences. 1 a doctor who ended up on a breathing tube. His family had to advocate to get him HCQ. Once treated, he recovered in days.
Another was among a group of warehouse workers. One of his coworkers died. He is diabetic, and started showing symptoms. He tested positive and he and his wife obtained HCQ and zpak from another Dr, after his regular physician recommended he wait to see if he got worse.
His symptoms cleared up within hours after getting HCQ.
Western NY, I know of no people diagnosed with covid or have met another person that knew of a person diagnosed with covid. I have seen some on the news but no direct personal knowledge.
None here in Nevada County, Northern California ... very few masks, but lots of Trump 2020 banners and American Flags in our neighborhood.
I should mention that a long-time friend who I haven't seen since March has three sons. One of her sons who I haven't seen since he was a young boy, works with a guy who had some virus symptoms. They had to test him three times before he tested positive. My friend's son also tested negative the first two times, then on the third time, the test results took so long, that by the time the results came back, and were positive, he had already passed the period of time that he would have been able to infect anyone else. My friends, their three sons, and their families all spent a week in Delaware, and had a good time.
“What’s the point of the survey? It’s real.”
Just curious what Freepers say.
I college aged nephew and his girlfriend who passed it on to him in Wisconsin
By the way my County’s reporting only 10 cases in my census tract of over 5,ooo people
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.,,,,,instead of waiting a few days to get tested and 5 days for the results,,,,if over 60 years of age,,,,you’re dead.
I know for sure 8 who tested positive for COVID, two were sick, one in hospital, one at home. Two were either mild or asymptomatic. Four died. Of the four, two were mid 50s, two were 70×. Three had at least one comorbidity. One was a 70 year old retired gym teacher in excellent physical condition.
