Thank you, definitely a few markers of folks that struggled with the virus; age, high blood pressure and blood type. Congratulations on whipping that virus’ arse and returning to your previous health. Were you taking multivitamins, elderberry, etc prior to your illness?

2 months recovery at home, recently released by physician

I’m not trying to be mean but this is the dumbest shite ever. I was incredibly sick with it for almost 3 weeks and the only way I felt better was if I got moving. It was very obvious when my VO2 max was dropping and it made me feel like I was suffocating. I was working out at extremely high intensity 3 days after I recovered and felt like myself again so much sooner than people who are locking themselves in a cage for 2 months

I agree, the virus was bad (i’m getting over it but was sick 2 weeks.) But, completely altering our society is overreach. I have kids in high school and college and i can’t imagine how it must suck, between COVID restrictions and “today’s social climate.”

Also, i’m interested in the whole blood type theory as well. I’m A+ too, and i feel like i got it worse than i should considering my age and health status. I’ve read the research but i trust anecdotal reports on TD more.

Wife is O+ and had a bout with it, same time as mine. Her risk area was her lungs, asthmatic, but she fared much, much better.

Please pray for Garys brother in law. He's dying of covid in Alabama. He's had minor symptoms for 2 days and feels the end is near.

That's interesting, I am O+ and tested positive for antibodies with a blood donation (doing a 2nd donation later this month). Back in February I thought I had a really bad sinus infection / allergy issue. Only thing different was a fluttering feeling in my chest and a persistent cough that lingered.

Trying to discuss this with any nuance is a lost cause on this board

-It's not dangerous for the huge majority of people

-It's quite dangerous for a sliver of the population

-People who aren't at risk should be able to do what they want

-People who are at risk should look out for themselves and avoid crowds, travel, etc., thereby bearing the brunt of the limitations

-When these two crowds meet by necessity, the people who aren't at risk should voluntarily be considerate of people who are at risk


frick, there is sanity on the OT
