Dear Facebook.

But anyway, I posted here about testing positive awhile back and have now returned to work.

I'm 26 and had a lot of fatigue and lost taste/smell for about a week but overall not too bad.

Seasonal allergies frick me up worse.

Probably more like 40 million who didn't even know they had it.

Thanks for confirming that shutting down the economy and mandating masks was the best possible way to handle this fauxdemic.

pretty much what the vast majority experience

But, there are outliers.

My friend is a nurse and just told me that a 30 y.o. patient in good shape, with no obvious vulnerabilities, died of it.

You are probably listed as dead in the Covid-19 stats.

I live in a city with a mask mandate and have to wear a mask for work anyway and still caught the shite.

I was just thinking, if you test positive for Coronavirus but are asymptomatic, what is done? Everything i've read, is that doctors say to stay home and only seek treatment if you have symptoms that become serious.

So how is this a horrible/deadly virus again? If i can catch it, and dr.s recommend i dont seek treatment unless i take a turn for the worse, then how is this any different from the flu?

FWIW, i believe i had it October/November last year. I thought i had a sinus infection, only because my sinuses were so bad i couldn't breathe out my nose, and had constant nose drip. Dr. told me it was likely seasonal rhinitis (allergies) and i took allergy medication for a couple weeks. Lost all taste and smell, was stopped up, and a little tired while at work, but overall, it was better than having the flu. No body aches, just light headed at times. Regained my smell/taste back after about a week or so.

A 96 year old friend of the family went to get a B12 shot because she needed a pick me up. They tested her and she popped positive. They sent her home for 5 days and told her to not go anywhere. I found her yesterday, on her roof fixing a bad shingle. Scared the hell out of me. This old lady that lives alone on her roof asking me to hand her tools up.

1) why are they being tested?

2) go get tested again because of the false positive rate.

I can't make heads or tails from all the bull shite about this.

Still trying to find a refrigerated truck parked behind ANY hospital in the Dallas area.

That's what I experience when I get the flu. It's a great time to lose 5 pounds.

You survived, so you I surmise that you didn't take Hydroxychloroquine.
