It is a rough virus to say the least so I hope your grandfather was able to contain this at an early stage. I have a three good friends right now (52, 61, and 74) who are battling this thing hard right now in different hospitals. None of them had preexisting conditions btw.

All are in ICU with the 52 and 61 year olds on ventilators and the 52 & 74 are both suffering from kidney issues to the point if they survive they will be doing kidney dialysis for the rest of their lives.

I'm still in quarantine but doing better just waiting for this cough and post-nasal drip to go away so I'm cleared for takeoff!

Did you mom call it the “Chinese virus” or are you adding that to feel edgy?

Sorry to hear about this. I hope that he fights through this and is ok.
Just curious, what kind of sales do you do? I’m in sales also and it’s ridiculous the amount of people at Walmart’s and super markets the past 3 weeks

Maybe you should stay home if you’re so concerned about your wife and kids then instead of trying to boss everyone else.

I’m not trying to boss people around I’m just saying if it’s not important stay inside. If someone you loves was going to die because some people are bored and want to go to Walmart you would probably ask the same. I can’t stop working, if I do I won’t get paid. I’m not mad about working just worried.
