I got the flu February 27th and I wonder if it was corona. I assume not, but I hope it was. Started with sore throat. Next day I felt like I'd gotten run over by a truck (in terms of aches/pains) and I had a temp of 101-102 for 4 days. Had shortness of breath but I had asthma when I was a kid and used to be a smoker so it's not unusual for me to have that as a regular flu symptom. Took about two weeks for full recovery though the last half of that I didn't feel that bad, but was coughing poo poo up from my lungs being hosed up. I don't think I really had a dry cough or I'd say it was for sure corona, but it does appear that some people don't get that symptom.

Bacon is an amazing lockdown food. It's delicious, moral boosting and leaves a pan full of grease you can use for more cooking. If you are throwing away bacon grease you deserve gods wrath.

PSA: Asthma never goes away. Even if you have less attacks or manage it better as an adult (especially with healthier lifesty-hahaha) it is an underlying health condition which you need to report if, god forbid, you need to seek care for respiratory symptoms. edit:Possibility of lower basal body temps in sedentary (and obese) impacts what a fever is. We are, as a country, looking at lowering the average body temp due to lifestyle changes over the past 100-years. Cuddly Tumblemumps fucked around with this message at 18:40 on Mar 24, 2020 |

So my wife, one of her sattelite offices, has confirmed 2 people in northern California. Separately, I just got an email that one guy on the floor of my office building (different company) in SF tested positive. Thankfully we've been working from home for 2+ weeks now

I fell in love with these things a couple months ago but then Amazon didn't have them and only third party people were selling them for like 6+ dollars each ($19.99 for a loving 3 pack) and your post made me think of them again and Amazon got them back in stock (for less than 2 dollars each) so now I've got a bunch on the way thank you DFDF

Facebook Aunt posted:https://www.aliexpress.com/ They have no rules about price gouging so prices are a lot higher than they were 6 months ago, and it'll take a month to get anything to you, but they have them for sale and are shipping them out. Seriously people, you do not need n95s. You know who does? I do, and all the people I work with. I'm in the room with covid patients every day and we have almost no n95s to go around. When we run out and I've got to collect a covid swab on somebody's mom, or dad, or kid, or grandparent, am I going to have to just pray they don't cough (they all do)? Then hope I don't give it to coworkers, or worse, my wife and son? Stay home, wash your hands, cover your mouth when you cough and sneeze.

Also, you can't get tested. if you are getting away by going out to the actual wilderness and wont be around other humans fine, but if you are going to a small backcountry town to "get away" like thousands of other brilliant people you are just going to die on a cot in an even more crowded school gymnasium or church

Speaking of thermometers, what's the best way to get one right now? The only one I have is for my kids and it's one of those you swipe across the forehead but it's always sucked major rear end with giving you accurate results. As of now, no stores near me have any and amazon has poo poo or won't deliver until end of April.

That one you have is the best one because you're not getting another one until April/may at this point. Edit: I had a difficult time even ordering the button batteries mine needed because it was dying.
