My brother’s friend died earlier this month from COVID in Portland, OR. He was 63, 100% healthy, an avid tennis player and mounting bike rider. Diagnosis: bad luckA buddy of mine in New York City texted me tonight and told me his luck had run out and he tested positive this morning. He said his symptoms are low grade fever, fatigue, headaches and nausea but his sense of taste and smell are not impacted so far. His wife tested negative, but she must be going bananas because they live together. He said his breathing is OK so far but the doctor told him to get his ass to hospital if he deteriorates. He is at home resting.
This is getting totally out of control! I wonder who is going to be next?
I haven't really heard anyone saying it's just the flu.
So, one person, that you’ve heard on tape? That’s quite the list. As far as early comments on this thread, none of us knew how bad this was going to be. So I’ll pass on re-reading earlier comments. That would be foolish. We have two vaccines almost ready to go to the public because of Trump’s “Operation Warp Speed”. If you don’t want to take it, that’s fine to. More for us.I guess you don`t listen to your beloved orange one. Its on tape . He calls covid19 just another flu that will soon go away...that was about a month ago. You may also want to re-read some of the early comments on this thread when it was called just another bad cold by some posters who should have known better.
BTW anyone can get it and what is scary is that they don`t know how they got it. A wealthy doctor whom I know is in hospital with a serious case of cv19 and is being treated with the same medical cocktail that trump got.

My brother’s friend worked in a senior position for a major corporation and had an excellent health insurance. He received basically the same treatment as Tramp did. He was improving and was discharged from the ICU. He talked to my brother 2 days before his death via WhatsApp and told him that he believes he is out of the woods. Then his lungs rapidly collapsed.That is unfortunate. I texted my buddy in NYC today. He is 57, retired, in excellent shape, usually visits me for long weekends 2-3 times a year, typically built around big sports events. He reported to me today that he feels a little better than Sunday but is very fatigued. He is eating and drinking. Said he has been resting and watching a lot of Netflix. He mentioned 2 shows, "Medal of Honor" and "Unsolved Mysteries." He is living with his wife in NYC. Their daughter is away at grad school. The wife tested negative. She must be freaked out, being alone with a Covid positive person. But part of the marital vow is standing by your spouse in "sickness and in health", so she has to suck it up, I guess.
Why is it odd Sol T ? It should be quite logical.
People are taking precautions against catching Covid19 that also work well against catching influenza.
Why? Because people are saying no influenza because we are wearing masks etc. and at the same time saying the covid-19 spike is because we are not wearing masks etc. Think about that before you answer.
Nobody is saying "no influenza"... but less, yes.
My point is the same people hailing that masks made this possible also blame the spike in covid-19 to people not wearing masks.
