    Sorry to hear. Fingers crossed.

    A good friend of mine caught it, a bit older. She was just miserable for about a week, nothing indicating hospitalization needed. She lost taste and smell and made little progress for months but now suddenly is 100% back on both.

      Sorry to hear this, George. If it helps at all I have two healthy colleagues of my age who caught it and shook it off in a week with no real ill-effects.

      I was only joking

                  Not yet. She got more symptomatic on Saturday, and I ordered her a pulse-ox. It's arriving this afternoon.

                    Why your daughter may be more impacted than Trump is something that seems to not be understood yet, although any of the 3 treatments he got could be the answer.

                    Here is the best article I could find on the topic.

                      That's a perfect example of what several of us here have been harping on, over and over again, All. God. Damn. Year. Which might I add keeps getting written off as silly outliers that need to be ignored because they're silly outliers that don't fit the Old People Narrative, and in some cases "fearful (and therefore sinful or something) talk."

                        I don't think I made it clear that it's looking like D2 caught this from a patient she interviewed on Oct 4 (I believe). Patient denied being sick...

                        I told her....

                            Were I in her position and knew what she knew, I'm pretty confident I'd feel exactly the same.

                                Yes I know that and 120 people under 19 have died so far. So one has to find the balance between what is happening to people who don’t get Covid as a result of lockdown and those that die or get very sick from it.

                                Not wearing masks is unconscionable.

                                    I don't think she's saying so because working with Medicaid is such a great experience.

                                      I don't know why you keep bringing stuff like that up, though. What does that have to do with anything? It's not even relevant in this thread as neither George's daughter, nor anyone who participates here, is under 19.

                                      So one has to find the balance between what is happening to people who don’t get Covid as a result of lockdown

                                      You seem to post examples that are disproportionate to reality. Yeah, a lot of businesses have gone under as a result of the virus. But it's not an economic apocalypse--unemployment is at 2015 levels and it continues to decline, not increase--and new opportunities keep cropping up that would otherwise not exist.

                                      As for the social isolation, yeah that's a bummer. But no other people in the history of the world have been so well-equipped to handle that problem. It's a very serious consequence that's literally never been easier to mitigate.

                                      Please love yourself.

                                          Why your daughter may be more impacted than Trump is something that seems to not be understood yet,

                                          That's a perfect example of what several of us here have been harping on, over and over again, All. God. Damn. Year. Which might I add keeps getting written off as silly outliers that need to be ignored because they're silly outliers that don't fit the Old People Narrative, and in some cases "fearful (and therefore sinful or something) talk."

                                          Yes I know that and 120 people under 19 have died so far.
