If I do get super sick they better give me some damn Trump medicine.

Call your doctor and say you are traveling to Tanzania in Africa in two weeks.

They’ll write you a prescription for hydroxychloroquine.

That’s how my friends got their meds.

Roommate caught it at a party with the local Tuscaloosa Jimmy Johns workers and brought it home.


Is he sure he contracted it from them? Did they receive their test results freaky fast?

He doesn't need HCQ.

He doesn't need anything besides vitamins or staying home.

If he develops symptoms that start to get severe, then MAYBE.

I had It and all the syproms. The worst days are 4-8. Day 10 you start to feel better. For the next two months you will be fatigued but can’t sleep regularly. Appetite will diminish with no smell and taste. Take Tylenol, zinc, vitamin C and D. Drink lots of water. My best to you on your recovery. FYI walk everyday to about blood clots. .




Everyone's experience is different and this was not mine at all.

I was completely normal after about 5-6 days post first symptom. Never lost smell or taste.

I’ve heard it has a 99% fatality rate!





















Just kidding. That’s a 99% + survivability rate!

I still can’t smell but taste is slowly coming back. I’m on day 8 after symptoms started. Worst part was the nasopharyngeal swab. I had an earache afterwards.

Why would you get tested if you didn’t have symptoms? So dumb

I got tested so I could know which friends to hang out with and which ones not to. We all hung out constantly so the ones that are positive are all going to crash at my friend’s cottage. Plus I was planning on going home to Mobile next week but now I know not to bring it back to my parents.

I hadn't heard that before. Maybe that's a reason POC are more affected by COVID. I mean its mostly whitie's fault, of course. But lacking vitamin D could be a reason too.

I’m waiting for my results. Not worried about myself but I stay with my grandmother to cut driving back and forth. I’m anxious to know one way or the other.

Why did you go test for something you don't have symptoms for? Call your Dr and get a reliable test because if you have had the cold or flu vaccine you will test positive. Really????????????????

I had four relatives get it, and three had very mild cases lasting a few days, but my sister had a very serious case, and was down for over a month.
Hope your case is mild.
