Everyone says this until the virus hits home. People underestimated and continue to underestimate how threatening this virus is. Measures seemed extreme until people I know started coming down with symptoms, some severe. If the economy needs to suffer from it, there is nothing we can do about that.

In biblical terms, this is a מגפה. Plain and simple.

I had a minor event. Hatzolah recommend I go to ER to be tested. All heart and lung tests BH good. They did swab my nose, but now they are telling me that they are testing for Flu not Corona Virus.
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

“event”? Care to elaborate? Difficulty breathing?

Almost passed out. Only "difficulty" breathing was due to mask. Got an IV and some apple juice at the ER, feeling better now than I felt over the past 48 hours.

Very tiny study.
It is a start. We unfortunately have no shortage of cases to test on.

Not at all. It isn't a hospital, just ER (cobble hill) I think the guy next to me is being taken to a hospital now. An ambulance crew just came to take him. Though he was walking around.

So now every single common cold symptom has to be assumed as covid? If so there’s no two sets of rules 1) ppl who tested positive & the rest of us

Workflowy. You won't know what you're missing until you try it.

No. They said isolation (entire household) for 48 hours after fever stops.
