I write this as my wife and I have the disease. So it isn’t like I am just blowing smoke. While symptomatic, will avoid people if we can. I do not expect healthy people to avoid each other.

Mrs. JimRed and I were infected and have recovered. We quarantined for two and a half weeks. Frankly, I have had colds that were as uncomfortable and lasted as long. Most of my symptoms were over quickly; no fever after the fifth day and little coughing (other than my personal "normal" cough from postnasal drip; had that for years). My fever was low grade, 100.5 or so. My wife said she had a reading of 104 but I suspect she may have misread the thermometer. We were not put on any special medication but told to call for meds if we got really sick.
