Ok. You've been sick for over two weeks while specifically trying to recover. Thats not normal lol. Dont downplay it with that last statement
Yes it is.

Cough, especially related to a respiratory illness, can last for weeks post-resolution.

Febrile for that long is very concerning, but a cough is not.

South Korea has 4,812 cases and 34 deaths

Iran announced they have 428 deaths. What a shite show they are.

Do the math on the likely number of cases they have

Well I'm pretty sure they don't have people licking shrines in South Korea.

Ordinarily, but we just go online and meet them there regardless.


I'm as big of a plugged in nerd as they come, but I found it refreshing spending a week completely cut off rafting the Grand Canyon. WW3 could have started and we would have no idea.

Have their been any theories as to why children seem to be immune? This is the opposite of the flu

Two years in a row I came down with some kind of respiratory infection. Diagnosed with bronchitis, started feeling better about a week later. Coughed for almost another month.

Because the children are our future, teach them well and let them lead the way...

Yeah, but I CHOOSE to go online with those stupid people.

The meatspace ones foist themselves upon me.

This was manufactured. A test run to thin out the herd/non-contributors AKA old people.

I kid. Sort of. I’ve missed a few pages, but how did this wind up in a nursing home?

Is there anywhere that shows the ages of the deaths?

Any insurance or medical types understand this?

BREAKING: I am announcing a new directive requiring NY health insurers to waive cost sharing associated with testing for #coronavirus, including emergency room, urgent care and office visits.

We can't let cost be a barrier to access to COVID-19 testing for any New Yorker.

Basically he’s telling them that all coronavirus testing is to be treated as preventative care and 100% covered, aka free.


He also just put a big arse bullseye on his ERs getting buried with every kid with the sniffles.

That means there are a shite ton of people that are not being tested, while they are currently infected. They are walking around spreading this disease.


If the numbers reported by CNN today are accurate, then I don’t think it matters much. CNN reported that upwards of 80% of infected don’t exhibited any symptoms or symptoms are so mild that they do not necessitate medical treatment - especially children.

The problem is that with that level of contagion it's impossible to shield vulnerable people. See the WA nursing home.
