Default Covid 19? Mebbe. Caught something anyway.

Caught something this week.

COVID 19 SYMPTOMS
87.9 percent had a fever- check
67.7 percent had a dry cough-check
38.1 percent felt fatigued-check
33.4 percent produced sputum- a little
18.6 percent had shortness of breath- a little
13.9 percent had a sore throat- slightly
13.6 percent had a headache- check
14.8 percent had muscle and or joint pain- check
11.4 percent had chills- check
5 percent were sick or felt nauseous- no
4.8 percent experienced nasal congestion- a little
3.7 percent had diarrhea- couple of rounds
0.9 percent coughed up blood- no
0.8 percent had conjunctival congestion, or pink eye- no

So, felt lousy for a couple of days and am pretty much back to normal.
If not for the media buildup, I'd have chalked it up to the flu.
Meh.

Your Mileage May Vary

Working from home, so in everyone's interest I'm sticking around the house.

YMMV

Please get checked so others that you might have been in contact will be aware.

Thanks for staying home.

Arjay, please stop being a jerk. It's not helpful.



And I thought you had me blocked. What are you doing on this thread?

Get checked out by medical authorities and see if you have covid19. If so, then follow their directions and help them get in contact with anyone you have had contact with. Just because it didn't affect you too badly doesn't mean you can't infect others. And if it's covid19 and you infect others, it might just kill them.

Fair 'nuf. Been home for over a week, so it's a short list.

Now I can't find aquarium cleaner at the store.

Would it be ok to drink betta water instead?

Then you didn't have the flu given your account. My money is on a cold type virus.

Even so, given the variations in patient response to COVID-19, you should get tested if that's possible. Remember, when it comes to epidemiology studies even a negative result is a useful data point.
