We had been taking zinc and I do believe that may have made our infection less severe.

I'm outside from morning till dark and my vitiman d is on the low side of average I have to double up on d3 supplements to get it on the high Side of average.

Fever for about 5 hours then it was just like a minor cold. I lost smell and taste for about 4 days it’s back now. I got a whole lot done around the house it just slowed me down a little for a day or 2.

Take Vitamin c and an immune system booster couple times a week.
Never caught it yet.

Praying for You

Just tested positive yesterday

Had it for about 5 days in july. Pretty minor.

One of my secretaries lost her sense of taste, so we sent her home and told her to get tested. She was positive for the virus. So, we had the other two girls tested. They were negative. This all happened on 10/12/2020. The lady who tested positive came back to work this past Monday symptom-free. She said the only symptoms she had were loss of taste and smell, a headache, and the green apple two-step. No breathing issues, though. Her husband was tested twice, both times negative.

I'm wondering if they could figure out why some people can live with someone who has the virus and never get it, is there a solution there that might have to do with chemical make up, or something in their DNA, or a certain lifestyle. Reminds me of that movie where all the people in the town died with the exception of the alcoholic who drank Sterno and the baby who had colic. Could it be that simple?

Prayers sent for all effected.

I read there may be some people who have antibodies from a year or 2 ago that were developed from a type of cold that seems to work against covid-19.

Do you mean to tell me that you can't even enjoy the odor of a good fart? That would suck!

most will be fine, some will develop severe vascular issues, cytokine storms, multi organ failure, or pneumonia and die. A 20 yr college student just died of a pulmonary embolism due to COVID in Indiana.

Some will develop long term cardio vascular or respiratory issues.

I don't want to take my chance. though the odds are in my favor, young healthy, zero health issues, etc.

What chance are you not taking? Never leaving your house? Never being around people?

Gotta walk around with a sealed space suit to avoid this

I loose my taste and smell when I work with skunk essence all day. I stink all day. Does that count.

I heard that they only want people to go to the Hospital , if their fever is 104.1 degrees or above

You're half dead if you wait that long. You be there long time.

most people don't have a ear thermometer or take your bum temp
so 103*F under the tongue

hospitalizations at record levels...



“The department has seen significant increases in the number of COVID-19 cases among younger age groups, particularly 19 to 24-year-olds,” the health department said.

Also on Thursday, Illinois reported 9,935 new infections — up from its previous daily record of 7,899 on October 31. And another 97 deaths were reported Thursday, bringing Illinois’ coronavirus death toll to over 10,000.

As hospitalizations and deaths surge nationwide, some officials are enacting new rules to try to control the virus’ spread.

16 states set new records for hospitalizations

COVID-19 hospitalizations reached all-time highs in 16 states Wednesday, according to the COVID Tracking Project: Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Minnesota, Montana, Nebraska, New Mexico, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Tennessee, Utah, Wisconsin, and Wyoming.

“Our number of hospitalized people goes up every day. These are a lot of Kentuckians who are fighting for their lives,” Gov. Andy Beshear said Wednesday. “There’s a lot of pain out there and it’s hitting everybody.”

The state’s health commissioner, Dr. Steven Stack, said he’s concerned “not that we will first run out of bed space but that we may not have enough health care workers to staff all those beds.”

Kansas is suffering another “very difficult week for virus spread” — especially with rising hospitalizations, Gov. Laura Kelly said Wednesday.

Last week, the closest available ICU bed to one rural hospital was about a six-hour drive away, Kelly said.

Across the U.S., more than 52,000 people were hospitalized Wednesday with coronavirus, according to the COVID Tracking Project.

And at least 1,097 new COVID-19 deaths were reported Wednesday, according to Johns Hopkins. That’s a 23.71% increase from four weeks ago, when the U.S. averaged 696 coronavirus deaths per day.

In just 10 months, more than 9.5 million people in the U.S. have been infected with coronavirus, and more than 234,000 have died.
