I wish we could say " we are all in it together". Some of us think it's a hoax made up to make the president look bad. That the presidents own team of docs are out to get him and destroy the American economy. My God. I hope these people never have to see the inside of a freezer truck. I still can't get those images out of my mind and my wife struggles with the stress and exhaustion. Stay healthy everyone so this can be over.

One of our posters, JAMS-something's son was on a ventilator for I think like 11 days. He was finally released. Now sure how he is doing now.

I have a life-long friend who contracted Covid mid-March. She still tests positive.

A friend of mine's dad died of Covid complications just this week.

I've lost 14 pounds and I'm not sure how.

Can you lose weight without knowing you have it?

Yes, my son did. He was hacking up green crap. I lost some but most of it just moved from arms to waist

I personally know 3 people in NJ, aged mid 30’s- early 50’s. No underlying conditions. Took all three 6 + weeks before they began to feel better. None of them know each other. None of them feel 100%.
