I’m sure it was just a random cold and not the Roni but I had the same thing at the end of February and am in contact with people who travel all over the world a lot for their work. Fever for days, body aches really bad just completely lethargic all day and sweating and chills. Felt a little better for a couple days and then my lungs got all hosed up and I got super sick again and by the end of the month I went to the er and had bronchitis in both lungs and low o2 pretty bad but started feeling better. Test for flu and strep negative. Still coughing up gunk but not as much. My wife got sick 5 days after me but not as bad but still had lung problems. I hadn’t really been sick much the years before but this was like my 4th cold of the season. Oh and my wife remarked that I mentioned I couldn’t taste anything for a few days, which I didn’t even remember but who the hell knows.

News articles about Guayaquil, Ecuador. They majority of the stuff you can find are in Spanish as networks in the USA or UK are barely touching the subject.

And yes, the person who brought the virus was a lady that came back from Spain.
This is probably the type of poo poo we are gonna see in places like India once everything collapses. I fear my country is heading that way, specially if it hits poor/indigenous/immigrant communities.

The thing about shortness of breath is that it can also be a symptom of anxiety/panic attacks which virtually everyone is having due to worrying about the corona, their jobs, their finances, whether or not their wife is having an affair, etc.

Even America, who we have yet to see how bungled it's going to get, will make sure of that their influence remains even at the cost of their own blood.

I don't understand how a single man could go through more than one roll a week. So 3 rolls is probably at least two weeks, maybe four if I really needed to stretch it. Generic double roll, Safeway knockoff. Eat better and maybe your poops won't require an excess of wiping?

Polowczyk, who is director of fleet ordnance and supply at the U.S. Fleet Forces Command in Norfolk, Va., is helping to lead the effort to replenish supplies of personal protective equipment like face masks, gowns and gloves, as well as ventilators to treat patients who have developed severe respiratory problems from the virus.

He said the government is working with major U.S. suppliers to fill orders placed by hospitals and states.

"We are working to align transportation to product," Polowczyk said. The government is "scouring the globe and finding pockets of personal protective equipment that might not otherwise be in the U.S. hospital supply chain."

The government is delivering those products to medical supply companies, rather than delivering them directly to the facilities in need, Polowczyk said.

"That's normally how things work. I'm not here to disrupt a supply chain. These six distributors have 600 to 700 warehouses. They have trucks to go to the hospital doors every day," he said.

No, it won't. You underestimate the necessity of greed and the massive wealth imbalance in the world. Do you think the wealthy nations are going to suffer proportionally to the poor ones? China is going to do major power plays. Even America, who we have yet to see how bungled it's going to get, will make sure of that their influence remains even at the cost of their own blood.

i really don't think "nothing ever changes, history is over" nihilism is warranted right now. things are changing every single day; and people have longer memories than you give them credit for.
