thanks doc.
You’re welcome! 
The mortality rate is very low. 504.86 deaths per million in the US right now or .005%. If you are otherwise healthy, you are twice as likely to die from a car accident and dying from covid is less than twice as likely as being struck by lightning. You’ll be fine
I caught it back in March before anyone was really saying anything about it. It sucks but most people are just fine. I found sleeping with my head elevated helped. I wound up just sleeping in a recliner. Also anything you have that can help knock the gunk in your chest loose is good.

the “original” SARS killed about 800 people over the span of 2 years.
so how was it worse?
at the current rate, we’re well on track to see millions of deaths in that same time span.
it’s only just starting to take hold in a lot of the lower socio-economic countries which have tightly packed communities, and poor sanitation.
I’ll keep you in my thoughts… 
See ya in the Maw OP.
Careful with all these false positives. Self quarantine for 14 days. The exact S/S have not been fully nailed down and generate a large variation.
One of the more pernicious signs is ARDS, then that is definitely when you need to go the hospital. Keep fevers down with NSAIDS. Elevate if you feel congested. Rest. Drink fluids even those with electrolytes in case of diarrhea. Like the flu, antibiotics do not kill viruses and it really is about mitigating the symptoms much like dealing with a really bad flu.
I’ve read that NSAIDS trigger or make worse the lung problems.
if your a healthy person odds are you will survive OP. they want you to be sacred and honestly i think their testing is bonkers, someone in my county recently died in a car crashm hospital listed it as covid. WHAT???
You didn’t do anything “wrong” — I’ve been working in grocery retail during this whole thing and just recently they started requiring people to wear masks, nobody is really social distancing, and they are bringing entire families…
If I can survive Karens and not get covid, but you get it from poking your head out… its not you, its society.

Not sure if anyone has mentioned it but I use Vicks Moisturising Nasal Spray and eye drops religiously.
It has nothing to do with C19 but helps with the permanent case of sinusitus I contracted back in '97 down at Parris Island.
The nasal spray may help with breathing at night and the eye drops can keep your eyes flushed and moisturized.
But even before doing that check with your doctor first. Forget all the advice you get from here, the news, and politicians. Let your doctor be the one to prescribe and suggest medical advice.
I hope you get better soon OP.
Bananas are my go to sick food.
Seems suspect, considering you don’t just go to a doctor and get your covoid results instantly.
In fact it’s quite a hot topic on just how awful the healthcare industry is handling getting results back to people.
Mine took 3 weeks.
I believe there’s a quicker variant of it that might not detect if you have the full blown virus but it alerts about things related to it. Our “president” gets that test everyday
I’m sorry but whoever flaged this post you are not right. This is not a joke. Not something to be taken lightly or “this thread should not be on the forums”.This is a place for us to come together in and out of game, be there for one another and support. Not knock down or ignore and flag post.
TBH, there has been other posts by our fellow gamers to also make a thread and talk about said subject. Again you are wrong sir, madam !!

My nieces stepmom had it when I spoke to her in June she said it was nothing major just like a bad cold,but she still couldn’t smell anything lol she had it in March. A couple other family members tested positive but they’re fine. Every one I mentioned is over 50.
You’re wrong.
