We also will survive, we never get fully blown illnesses because as soon as anyone in the family feels a bit down, we miniaturise another member of the family, inject them into the blood stream and they search out the offending germs, virus, etc. and then blast them with a laser gun.

Yes. I believe I can survive. Because I rarely get ill and I tend to have more fruits usually and I use Vitamin C as a habit. So, I have faith. On the other hand, I believe positive thoughts can keep our body more strong. But, I don't have any idea to check the eleven of my immunity by doing odd things..Hope you wouldn't try it.

Originally posted by sasguru View PostI had a fever and a cough. Fever gone, but cough still there intermittently after a month. And fatigue. Need to sleep every afternoon, quite unlike me before.
So yes whatever it was it was NOT a normal flu.
The main giveaway symptoms for me where tight lungs/shortness of breath, and a metallic taste in my mouth.

In some "stronger" people, the immune system goes mad trying to kill the virus and instead kills the patient.
Happy to be a "wimp" in that case.
Now all I need is the Covid passport to carry on with normal life and leave you lesser zero-antibody types behind

So let me see. I dont have any real underlying health issues. I'm overweight, I drink, I exercise a little but not enough.
I don't really get ill, as the alcohol kills everything. I never had childhood illnesses until my late 20's even though my mother kept taking me to peoples houses who had measles/chicken pox etc and they were mild.
I'm not poor, black, ethnic and live in spacious house.
I've had a BCG and used to take malarial drugs.
I don't go to football matches, use public transport and didn't go to Cheltenham.
I don't believe in God, I don't believe in life and think it's all one goddamn simulation, I'm more nihilistic than simplistic.
Did it occur naturally, did it escape from a lab, is it natures way, is it a biological weapon?
So would I survive it? ****s knows. Do I want to find out. No. Are we all ****ed. Yes.
MF over and out.

It was at least 10 days after getting it until i seriously considered that i might have it. I never got a fever at any point.
Until then i was going to the supermarket every other day or so.
I should note that i was never tested so i can't be 100% certain that was it, but it did match the symptoms other than the fever and felt like nothing i've ever had before, so it would be a coincidence if it was something else.Last edited by Robinho; 18 April 2020, 14:18.
