Before things got crazy... i had the same thing... flu and fever for 24-48 hours, and then about a week worth of congestion and coughing. Called my doctor, they said "We really doubt you have corona. Just stay at home and if your fever comes back and you get much worse, give us a call and we can give you a flu test."

Hope you all get to feeling better soon!

My experience was similar.   A few weeks ago.  The doctor had me come in, told me it was something else and there was nothing he could do.

This whole "how do you think you got it" is tone deaf AF.  This was the question about 2 months ago.  You and everyone else need to realize: EVERYONE is walking around with COVID.  It's everywhere.  EVERYWHERE.  Get with the times and get with the program.  STAY THE HELL HOME.  Moronic.

I'm glad I am not the only one who thinks this way.  I believe the virus has been in the US since the beginning of January (or earlier) and spreading like wildfire since.  Many people who had the "flu" in January and February (and perhaps even died from it) probably had Covid-19.  I believe the early patients in the US caught it from air travel - an airplane is a cesspool of germs and everyone is breathing the same recycled air.  US residents travel more than citizens of any other country.  The biggest problem is a large % of the population are carriers and do not show symptoms and have been spreading it without abandon for months.  It wouldn't shock me if the endgame result were 250,000,000 Americans catch it/carry it, 40,000,000 suffer greatly and out of that 40M, due to not being tested and eventually due to scarcity of hospital beds and ventilators, 7M+ will die.  Our response has been pathetic to date and its probably way too late at this point.  Our population is polluted with people who believe their are entitled by the Constitution to live free from any government intervention and do WTF they want.

I'm also tired of Trump's excuses.  People I know started talking about it shortly after the New Year.   There is evidence that members of Congress were expressing concern the first week of January.  Not to mention the Jan 24 briefing of President Trump by the Senate Health and Foreign Relations committees that expressed such a dire emergency it lead 4 Senators to sell off their entire investment portfolios.  That was Jan 24 folks, or more than 6 weeks prior to Trump finally fessing up to there being a concern.   Truthfully the US should have gone on lockdown on Jan 24, and if it had, the economy would have been saved and we would probably looking at a much much more manageable scenario.  Instead we are heading towards an economic crises greater than the Great Depression and the worst health crises in history.

Bear in mind - the only reason why our positive test results are so low is because we have barely tested anyone.  How many people would you say are living in the US now?  Including the undocumented, I would say upwards of 360M, compare that to Spain of under 50M and Italy of approx 60M.  360M people, 943,000 hospital beds and 160,000 ventilators SMH!  In New Jersey Governor Murphy tooted his horn so very proud that we tested 600 people today, there are only 9M people living in NJ.

Eventually people will understand, but when that does happen it will probably be too late.

Ok but you said they were worth 360 billion bc they own Johnson & Johnson. I just pointed out that you're wrong about them having any part of it. I'm sure the Johnsons will donate money just like every other owner in professional sports is doing. Woody Johnson is worth about 3.5 billion, not 360 billion.

 

And notice that I said "any longer". Ann's selfishly they should only be donating to causes in the tri state area,  not globally.

Please don't spread misinformation. COVID-19 is not the flu or just like the flu. We don't have enough information to determine whether or not it's less deadly than the flu.

Wouldn’t the mortality rate drop significantly if everyone that did have it actually was tested?

It would depend on their outcomes. If everyone who wasn't tested and had it died then the mortality rate would raise.

Based off the statistics available which are highly inaccurate this is much more deadly than the flu. Out of the 90,000 resolved cases 10 percent of people have died. That is an unimaginable number. Again the statistics are highly inaccurate because most of who are tested are the ones who are most sick from the virus.

I understand that. But an abnormally amount of deaths from the flu weren’t reported this year. So if the premise is that this has been here longer than has been reported and it went undetected you would assume most survived.

The statistics available say that there have been 242,000 cases worldwide, 10,000 deaths. That's 4%. I get that you're just using "resolved" cases but that's not how you average the survival rate.

I fear the mortality rate will be higher in the US due to the gross lack of resources; 1) Test kits, 2) PPE for medical workers, 3) Hospital Beds and 4( ventilators.   Did you know the US is 32nd in the world in terms of hospital beds per capita...there's a whole lot of "sh*thole" countries who are far better equipped to handle a pandemic.

where were all the democratic politics s crying about the virus in January? Oh wait they were busy failing at impeaching Trump  

Trump was being called a “racist” for  banning travel from China at the end of January. Europe just started locking down borders after Trump then banned European travel. Europe is a bloated with the virus. Country’s such as Germany and Italy with a fraction of the US population have more cases.

every country has the virus and there really is no way to completely contain it. So get over your hate for Trump as you embrace the government controlling every aspect of your life and relying on the government for everything from toilet paper to fresh water. The socialist state Democrats want is finally coming. Lets see how much you love your Deep Stated politicians who are already making tons of money after shorting the market

There are other countries who have more experience with outbreaks like this. South Korea is doing an amazing job handling it but that is because they have had other outbreaks in recent history where they learned from. They are far ahead of the curve with testing, meaningful quarentines and treatment because they planned ahead and prepared for this.

I was stating facts bro not starting up a political argument.  I did not say ONE negative comment about the Republican Party, then you come storming at me attacking me for criticizing Trump??????  I also criticized Governor Murphy, why haven;t any Democrats come attacking?  What a paranoid a$$hole! 

There is a way to contain it OBVIOUSLY you need to isolate.  Why were Republican Senators screaming for action if this is a Democratic sham?   Do some reading before you throw out accusations and criticism.   Its great he stopped travel from China but MUCH MORE had to be done - I think we all know that.  After receiving a briefing from the Senate Health and Foreign Relations Committees (who BTW were Republican Senators) that expressed a dire warning, Trump tells America this is nothing more than a Democratic Hoax, then he sharpened up to say we may have 5 cases, maybe 10, then it will just go away like magic.  It is not a political statement to say this individual (Trump) ****ed over the Country by giving the populace an obscenely false vision.  Yet he still is doing it, saying we have a treatment - only to be dispelled by Dr Fauci moments later - oh and BTW did you see Dr. Fauci's face-plant today.  Obama ****ed up the H1N1 its a fact, Trump ****ed up Covid-19 its a FACT.   The fact that a prior President did a similar action does not excuse the fault of the current President.  This is a CRISES that could destroy America forever - do you think I am happy and want to see Trump fail?  If you do you are an idiot.  I want to go to work, I want to go to the gym, I have a ticket plan for the Mets that I will not be able to enjoy this year.   I  have lost 170K from my 401K plan and 105K from my kid's 529 plan - where the **** is that money going to be made back from?  Who knows, I may get Covid=19 and die.   These are facts NOT POLITICAL RANTS.  GROW THE **** UP AND LEARN A NEW WORD - ACCOUNTABILITY.

In Germany, where testing is more ramped up than anywhere expect maybe Korea (Germany has been running 160k per week) the death rate is 0.3.%. Why does testing matter? Because it gets you closer a sample of cases that represents the entire population vs just those so sick that require a hospital visit and test. In Italy the death rate is 8.5%... thats 32x higher than Germany. Why? Because the only people getting tested in Italy are the severely ill. It is likely that Italy has closer to 2 million infected people than 47k (the currently reported number).

The lack of information is the scary part. We are committing economic suicide to prevent something that a lot of the data suggests isn’t worth the sacrifice...

would you be surprised to find out that there are actually 11 million people with the virus worldwide? Probably not right? Well 11m cases gives us a death rate better than the flu (with a much smaller % being children which typically are hit hardest by the flu)

YOU made this a political argument - NOT ME.  Name one thing I said about Trump (or Governor Murphy) that was NOT a fact.  I stated an estimate of how many people will get sick and die - that was an opinion and that was the only thing that was an opinion.  Did you see the projections put out by Rutgers today - they said 1.3M NJ residents will get Covid-19.  NJ has 16,400 hospital beds.  if the projected 20% are serious we will need 260,000 hospital beds.
