I survived covid

[bigbossman]

Interesting....you think as time goes on, the more exposures we have to this type of thing, the more likely we will adapt to it?

Dunno - it's anecdotal "evidence" at best. I can say this about my own experience.... I flew 43 times last year, and spent 85 days in hotels. ALL of my work in in hospitals and MOB's... like I said in the earlier post, every single square frickin' foot. aside from the last episode I detailed, I can't remember the last time I had so much as a common cold.

Either my immune system is naturally pretty sturdy genetically, or else its gotten sturdy over the years by constantly being in a petrie dish of one sort or another.

So if it's no big deal, is Trump lying to us? Is Fauci?

Why?

Glad you are ok!

I know it's anecdotal, but with enough anecdotes, they become "statistics."

I've always look at it this way, your (not personally, but in general) experience cannot be the only one, or rarely the first one, in the world. There are others like yours. In fact it's probably more like the norm than the exception. The law of averages states that most of us are the average.

Hopefully, in time, when we have large numbers to look at, this Wuhan virus is more like a new strain of flu than some exotic bug that's here to wipe us out.

Simple, political necessity. They need to plan and act for the worst case scenario or every death will be blamed on thier " inaction".

Do a bit of digging and tell me how many deaths have been people WTHOUT other health issues.

There have been cases where indigenous people have been wiped out after being exposed to viruses brought in by explorers as they had no natural immunity to it. Reportedly, that island where the natives kill any foreigner that sets foot on it had that happen to them in their history.

Glad you recover stay safe

Test results came back positive, I'm already recovered. Felt like regular flu for four days. Pretty sure I got it at work, it's the only place I had been in the previous week.

45 in good health, non-smoking

The calls from HR at work, and the county health department are a bigger hassle than the symptoms were.

How early in the year did you get sick?

I got sick with similar symptoms after attending the Consumer Electronics Show in mid-January. Lots of attendees and exhibitors from mainland China.

Took about a week to fully recover.

I would like to take a test to see if it was Covid-19, but does the test show whether you've ever had it? Or just if you currently have it?

First symptom was fatigue on Friday night. Saturday was the onset of flu symptoms, got tested Monday, results came in today. The test I had confirms if you currently have it.

There is an antibody test to see if you previously had it, but apparently it can't determine between this coronavirus and regular coronavirus.

Just because it isn't a big deal to some people that get it, doesn't mean it isn't a big deal for everyone that gets it.

The fact that a large number of people that catch it have mild to no symptoms isn't a new details.

[Darto]

May Heaven help the pot and tobacco smokers who catch it. Diabetes, Obesity and age also a factor.

Congratulations on having survived the coronavirus pandemic of 2020.

There needs to be some kind of a commemorative tee shirt for for such a milestone.
