They said I had a serious virus type illness, and I was real sick for about two to three weeks. I couldn't breathe and my body hurt terribly. I got over it by month three, right at the top of the year when we all learned about Covid-19. And since this last winter, early spring, as I have read about other's symptoms, I often wonder if I did have a case of it (as an after-thought). I just read a news story over on CNN that said now medical experts/scientists think that Covid-19 was actually transpiring across the country last fall, earlier than they thought at first.

The CNN story's conclusions are very interesting. Last September I had a sudden case of pneumonia, and I have wondered if it was, in fact, Covid-related. Other people have questioned this as well.

Stay well.

I agree ~ I have since the pandemic started ~ last fall there was something on CNN about a virus in China that was major concern and TRUMP was informed ~ that story died right then and there ~ I never heard of it again till it went world wide ~ TRUMP KNEW ! he has alot of American blood on his hands ~ he doesn't care.

I too, was really sick late last fall. I wonder if I had a strain of it? The only thing that I don't understand..no one else around me was as sick as I was. And I question where it came from. I was working then, before the store closed. Maybe a customer that traveled abroad? I'm very quick to fight off colds and such. I've never had the flu. I wonder why I was so sick for so long, respiratory issues and some serious coughing. Maybe it was stress of the store closing?

For the second day in a row, the numbers in my tri-city area doubled.

They changed our meetings protocol at work so there can be no more than 10 people in a room at a time. I still think it's risky but it's better. But no one is enforcing the masks in meetings. It's stated that they must be worn but I was in a meeting with 6 others yesterday and three did not wear a mask the entire time.

I got up at 5am to do a grocery run before it gets busy and before I have to go into work. Daddy and I are going to start driving out about an hour away to grocery shop where it's pretty rural and the numbers are really low.

Stay safe, all.

Looks like California it’s going to be issuing regional shut downs starting on Saturday based on ICU capacities, SoCal likely to begin this weekend. It sucks but the numbers are nuts and we have to address it somehow.

I am still just amazed at the fact that there is so much non-compliance on basics like gatherings and wearing masks. Everybody is having “The Year of COVID” everybody is missing out on something. Why can’t folks just buckle down and protect each other, especially now that we can see the finish line?

I don’t get it but it is what it is, I just wish so many people didn’t have to die over it. Staying home...

CDC said a short time ago that every 30 seconds someone dies of covid.

I was reading a story tonight, President (elect) Biden says he wants to ask folks to please buckle down & follow CDC guidelines, and wear masks for the first 100 days, to get us to spring, then the vax is available.

Also, former Presidents Obama, Bush, & Clinton along with President Biden will take a vax if Dr. Fauci says it is okay & its has sufficient efficacy and they will all stand publicly & get theirs!!

President Biden also says he has asked Dr. Fauci to stay in his current position & to be his Chief Medical Officer.. Go, Joe!

I be Riden with Biden/Harris

RI is really hurting right now and COVID is ramping up. People are being ridiculous and not wearing masks, maintaining distance, using frequent cleaning protocols, et cetera and we're now at a 9.2% positivity rate. Hospitals are at capacity. Two field hospitals have opened up but there's not enough staff to fully run them. Our Governor put us in a "pause" where businesses like gyms and bars are fully closed and others have tighter restrictions. You should hear the backtalk and complaints. It makes me cringe.

My employee's stepdad is a first responder and just tested positive. He was exposed at work. He also tends to have vicious colds that move into his chest and lungs quickly and hover there for weeks. I can't imagine what COVID is going to do to him.
