I had a fever for over 2 weeks. Doc said when it's higher than 102.5 come in. It didn't get higher so I rode it out. Worst thing I've ever had as far as general sickness
It took the doctor, two nurses, and MommaChimp to hold me down; they give me a shot and I was mad as Hell! They let me have another sucker before I left but I still never went back..... 
I only had a brief fever, but it was an odd lung thing. Usually I get a sore throat, then raspy lungs, then painful lungs with plugged nose and watery eyes. But this had no nose and eyes, and very little throat pain. It was all lungs, fever and chills, and fatigue - extreme fatigue.
That’s what I was hoping too until I saw that at least 14 of the sailors on the Teddy Roosevelt got it a second time but even they said screw it we have work to do and went back out to sea.
Haha, sorry I thought I was on fishcakes music thread
How'd I wind up on fish cake's thread?
I feel like that mostly too. I mean, the information is useful for some things of course, but not for understanding the presence or spread of the actual virus.
I think we been punked.
I haven't gotten sick in the 3.5 years I have been smoking.......even when everyone else in the house was sick. The one time I got feeling halfway bad, I burned a bowl of Tangie Ghost Train haze and whatever funk I had was gone. Just saying.Diva is an avid DailyMail reader and just ran across this bit of info.
After sifting through 400 cannabis strains, researchers at the University of Lethbridge are concentrating on about a dozen that show promising results in ensuring less fertile ground for the potentially lethal virus to take root, said biological scientist Dr. Igor Kovalchuk. “A number of them have reduced the number of these (virus) receptors by 73 per cent, the chance of it getting in is much lower,” said Kovalchuk. If they can reduce the number of receptors, there’s much less chance of getting infected.”
Cannabis shows promise blocking coronavirus infection: Alberta researcher
Our neighbors got Coronavirus. She works in healthcare....home care nursing type stuff....does the billing and accounting....but her boss apparently got it and gave it to half the office. She in turn gave it to her husband. They both were down with it really hard for a couple weeks. Said it was no joke.You had it too? That's reassuring. I'm tired of the death count, sheesh. How many have already had it? That's what I want to know. I don't see how it's useful to know which people are contagious today, and which aren't. A third of us could already have had it. They tested our county jail today and turned up 6 positives, 3 inmates, 3 workers. None of them had symptoms.
Heheh, apparently we have the same taste in medical care like we have in music. The other day, I had to think of the last time I "went to the doctor". Couldn't remember - gotta be decades. I've broken bones and torn stuff, so I had to have that handled, but no "go to the doctor".
We may have to learn to live life again, Maybe a garden, where our lawn is now. People in Germany raise deer, beef, pork, & chickens, in their back yard, and everyone has large gardens. We will learn to survive !! This will cull, the old farts like me. And life goes on !! Property values will plummet, we're gonna have less cops, less firemen, teachers, smaller banks will be have to merge, business loans will tighten up, and it's going be awhile before this economy is anywhere near normal again. Just my 2 cents !!The entire fresh chicken section was empty the last time I was at the store.
With the processing plants being closed, the supply backs up and the output drops. The producers get completely screwed because it's a perishable product, and the processor costs go sky high.
Two months ago, I was wondering why no one would talk about what happens when you shut down a complicated just-in-time-delivery economy like ours, and then try to "turn it back on". No such thing. "It" lives its own life. "It" will do what "it" does.
Now I'm wondering what's gonna happen to all the commercial real estate values. I'd be desperately trying to find a buyer if I owned rental or commercial property. No one will be able to afford current prices with a reduced income. Malls are goners, fer shure. And I'm not so sure about rental property - maybe if you have enough equity to get through the bad years.
Thank gawd I'm old.
Daughter sent her mom, plumeria seeds from Hawaii so they're now growing in Ma.. lol !! Till winter anyhow, then into my basement. Maybe !!
