i think i (me and wife) had it in december. whatever it was then was the worst "cold / flu" i have ever had. 10 days of fever (and i spent 3 days in the hospital decades ago with a bad case of food poison) whatever this was was way fucking worse. dry cough for a month. i lost twenty pounds in the first 2 weeks of whatever this was. just figured it was a bad case of the flu. rest, hydrate, and control fever, it went away. a month later covid 19 is a thing.
fast foward to today, and we are both sick again. normal "mild" flu like symptoms. spent 4 hours driving 5 counties trying to get the wife tested (she insists she "needs" to be tested). we found 1 place who was testing, they test twice a week, they can test approx 100 people a day during their 3 hour testing window.
most DR offices will test but you have to schedule an office visit with the DR, have blood work done, and then they will sell you a covid test (couple hundred bucks on top of insurance co pays).
i thought this shit was something serious? i thought we were trying to get in front of this thing? i thought only me and trump were assholes for saying this is all bullshit? while she hasn't came out and said it clearly i think there is now a third person who is starting to accept what me and trump have been saying.
i am 50% sure i had covid in december, it was fucking terrible. i can clearly see how someone who is not as healthy could die from it. i hope no one else gets this shit.
how serious of a concern can this be if no one is actively testing for it?
what's your thoughts?
