I would guess my wife had this covid about Month ago. Grandson and her both tested negative for flu. So we think that’s what it was. Daughters work in hospitals and say folks been coming in for 2 months with symptoms but wasn’t flu . So who knows.

How old are you wes, just curious.Originally posted by wes122984 View Post
Pretty much what my wife had but cough was more severe & lasted 4-5 days, fever only 2-3. Her chest was sore from the coughing a couple days after feeling better. She had it the worst.
My daughter had a cough for 3 days and fever for one & recovered really fast. 19yrs.
I felt like I had a horrible cold combined with my seasonal allergies was ugly...had the cough but never did get a fever. Last about a week. All of us were extremely fatigued & simply exhausted from the time you woke up. I'm 50 & wife is a little older (I didn't post that)
How is it today??Comment

We had a guy come by the office yesterday to pick up some material. He said he had just gotten over Pneumonia. His doctors told him that this virus has been here for months, we are just now able to test and properly diagnose people with the virus. We're pretty sure a lady at the office had it about a month ago. She gave it to an older guy we have here and put him in ICU for a week. They both tested negative for the Flu, but had all symptoms associated with this virus. The guy it put in the hospital has underlying respiratory issues, so it would not be surprising at all if that is what it was.Comment

As of this morning, approximately 8000 people have died from this virus since December. About 800,000 people a day die world wide of all causes. Perspective is important.Comment

They are currently saving the tests for healthcare providers and first responders. That may change when availability of tests improves.Originally posted by manwitaplan View PostComment

Of the roughly 150,000 people who die each day across the globe, about two thirds—100,000 per day—die of age-related causes. In industrialized nations, the proportion is much higher, reaching 90%.
Yes sir Perspective!Comment

This is my theory too! Now that there is gonna be a lot of testing there is gonna be more people have it cuz its been here for a while. Not saying I had it but back December I had something. Felt like someone was standing on my chest, dry cough, up to 102 fever, real achy feeling. If I did have it what they r saying about it being so contagious wasn't the case though no one else around me got it.Originally posted by bownut View PostComment

It depends on your source, but yes, that's probably correct. Over 6,000 die per hour.Originally posted by manwitaplan View Post150,000 people

Well the average age of death from corona is 80+. That sounds pretty age related too.Originally posted by manwitaplan View Post150,000 people

My sister-in-law is a nurse practitioner outside of Atlanta, Ga. a coworker got sick last week and was tested, still waiting on results. The doctor they work for got sick over the weekend and was tested Monday, and my sister-in-law has been feeling badly for two days and was tested today. So I probably know someone who has it, but will know for sure in a couple of days.Comment

I know it sounds crazy but I believe my wife and salesman came back from the SHOT Show in Vegas with it the last week in January. The symptoms fit and the doctors could NOT figure out what was wrong with my wife. She had a cough that moved deeper and she was short of breath and it lasted for 4-5 weeks before she was fully over it. My wife is 41, works out 4 days a week and is in very good health and this thing was kicking her rear. The cough was the worst part since it wouldn't go away. Nothing the doctors gave her helped and they even had her go to an imaging center with some kind of high end machine to get a good scan of her chest. They still couldn't figure it out but no one was testing for the virus then, because it supposedly wasn't here yet.
If her and my salesmen Hans didn't both have it, they had something oddly similar. Both our kids and I came down with what felt like a very light version of what she had that lasted a couple weeks but wasn't anywhere near as bad. It wasn't as bad as a normal cold. If my wife was older or not in as good of health she'd have been in the hospital just for the cough.Comment

The Shot Show was around the Chinese New Year. There were a lot of Chinese people in Vegas during that time. I was there a few days after the SS for a different conference. The Covid was already in the news at that point. On the flight home, there were several people on our plane wearing masks. Boy, it made me feel uncomfortable.Comment
