They stopped testing in NY

I also thought so but why did the numbers jump today by almost 3.5k cases in NY? Don't tell me all of those needed hospitalization because those are supposedly the only ones supposed to be tested.

Seems like LA did stop testing because the number in CA only went up minimally.

What’s the justifiable rationale? Sounds insane!

I’ve had a dry cough on and off for a month, and on-and-off headaches and tightness in the chest for the past 10 days or so since I’ve been holed up at home with my kids, probably all stress related. Should I be worried I Ch”v have COVID-19?

Fever?

Nada. But some people with much more serious symptoms haven’t had high fever. My cough is dry and my throat is somewhat dry as well.

A close colleague of mine is unwell with clear COVID-19 symptoms, Bez”h he’ll feel better soon. I haven’t been around him for over a week.

I’m staying home with my family, and the few times I’ve gone out I haven’t been within 6 feet of others and/or wearing a mask. Other than becoming a statistic, I don’t really see the point in getting tested at this point.

My wife was feeling lousy all week - nothing crazy, but a mixture of different symptoms with varying levels of conneciton to COVD19 at various times during the week. She finally got tested on Friday. They just called - she's positive.

Welp, I guess that puts me in the positive haven't tested category. Feeling mostly fine though, b"h.

What motivated you to get tested?

Oh ok, that makes more sense. So we should see the numbers tapering off over the next few days if they really did stop testing as instructed

Watch the number of deaths.
Only on DDF does 24/6 mean 24/5/half/half

From tuesday last week till shabbos I felt faint, had a few hot and cold flashes, no fever, headache and throat was a little soar

Now I only have a small sire throat

I'm guessing I had the virus and now I'm almost recovered
