You have to quarantine from the inter webs also?
Good luck. Take care. He can't take that chance. Other 'fire members might not have antivirus.

If you are an unlucky victim and get upper respiratory issues do not take that lightly. If you start having signs of upper respiratory issues, go to Walmart or Walgreens and buy an O2 sensor for 25.00 and monitor your oxygen blood levels. If it gets down to the low 90s or below then go directly to the ER. Otherwise ride it out.
Edit: send someone to the store, you stay home. box usually says "pulse-oximeter" or something like that slips on the end of you finger and gives you a reading in 10-15 secs
...Actually Sycamore, you are sort of right....

I popped hot back on the 6th, then the 7th again. I've had body ache, very slight fever, and short term loss if smell. Taste was subdued. Last Monday I had an experimental iv antibody infusion. Not sure it did anything, but to stay out the hospital, I'll tried it. I come off quarantine tomorrow. I didn't do bad, considering my age, and I am a type 2 diabetic. Good luck. Take vitamins C, D3, and Zink. Monitor your vitals. Get the o2 tester mentioned above. Below 90, head to the hospital. Lots of fluids. You got this !!!

Good luck with it all Shaman.
And yeah, if ya test pos, you likely will for a while. Wife has been + since Dec 18. Her Dr. wouldn't release her to return to work. Finally got the health department involved & she got released. The said they release most every one after 14 days unless strong symptoms still exist.

The test results are not back yet, but there is every indication I was exposed to the Chyna Fru earlier this week. A co-worker is down with it. The plant manager told me to stay home until I can pull a negative test. I am currently running a fever.
Expect no comms from the shamanic reloading cave for an indefinite time. I'll let you know when I get on the back side of this.
God bless Donald J. Trump. God bless the Republic. Confusion to our Enemies Press on regardless.
Prayers sent. Sorry to hear of it.

She talks to dumb groids daily that are getting retested 7,8,9 times because Popeye’s Chicken, the post office, etc is their place of employment and their supervisor is also a dumbass groid. Some govt employee groids are milking extended paid time off due to repeated +pos tests. Some places have a deal where you roll into UNemployment instead of burning sick time or of they have no benefit. Ahhhh, no. Get back to work groid

I've been fighting something for about a week now, worst symptom is headaches and completely plugged up sinuses. My eyeballs hurt. But I'm generally just not good for much of anything. Whatever it is, I've never been sick for this long since I had pneumonia as an 11 year old. Fluids, vit. C, D3, zinc, rest, naproxen sodium.
This, too, shall pass.

Hopefully pulse oximeters are back in stock.
I started researching all of this in March and even then, there were already enough smartie pants onto it that they were difficult to acquire one at a walgreens. Had to really dig on amazon and they were back ordered then. Took me a month to get one.

Exposure or contracting the ‘rona, statically speaking, means little. Deaths though, do count. In my county, the death rate has skyrocketed from .0004 to an astounding .0005 of the total population of 250,000 or so.

good luck Shaman,

From what a doc said Ivermectin is your huckleberry. Just need a doc willing to try it. I took some Ivermectin and it knocked it out in about 12 hours. I just went to my friends horse barn and ate the appropriate amount of Ivermectin paste. Since I had absolutely no sense of taste or smell what it taste like didn’t matter. Wish I hadn’t let myself suffer five days and took it on the first day of symptoms. I’m getting some taste back but smell is still gone. Since much of what you taste is actually smell everything tastes very plain and flat.
