COVID, SHMOVID

[crawdad]

Well, survived my ordeal with COVID and I'm back to the grind at the lab after ten days from being symptomatic. My wife was furloughed from work for 3 weeks because of me. I got off easy, just the worst head cold I ever had and a chronic cough.

Still feel like not smoking.

Schmovid is right!

Glad to hear you are doing well.

 

[hawky454]

Glad you are still with us!

 

[Sgetz]

Glad you ok. It's terrible

 

[mikethompson]

Glad that in your particular instance it didn't manifest itself to the point you needed mechanical assistance to breathe.

Your pipes and tobacco will be waiting for you when you are ready.

 

[FurCoat]

Glad to hear you are doing better. Hope things are getting back to normal for you and your family.

 

[cosmicfolklore]

I'm really glad you have recovered. Way to go!

It'll come in due time. Take it easy and get yourself fully recovered.
Glad you came through it and your family is well too.

Man, that’s great! Glad y’all are doing well. I’m assuming no one else in the house caught it?

 

[hoosierpipeguy]

Was exposed last Tuesday, was sick over the weekend with a low grade fever. Felt much better yesterday but my taste was definitely a bit screwed up. Tested positive yesterday afternoon. Have smoked five bowls of tobacco each day. Unless I suddenly take a major turn for the worse, this was nothing compared to the flu back in January. Took lots of vitamin D3, zinc and C.

 

[briarbuck]

No reason to be scared unless you have co-morbidities. Glad you guys "survived"

Keep calm and carry on....

 

[ashdigger]

I had some routine blood work done about three weeks ago and my doctor also had me tested for The Kung Flu. Turns out I have the anti bodies in my blood.

I have zero knowledge of when I was “sick”.

I take zinc everyday and some other basic supplements. So maybe that helped.

I’m more worried about the health hazards of my job than Covid.

I don’t give a shit about those either.

 

[cshubhra]

Happy to see that you have recovered and back here!

 

[snagstangl]

Ashdigger is definitely sick. But not in ways that can be tested in blood.

Glad everyone responding has made it through without complications.

 

[tbradsim1]

That’s really good news, my cigar man is back. Glad wife and rest of family doing well also.

 

[kcghost]

I wonder whether they will come out with an effective vaccine or I will get Covid first.

 

[mso489]

So glad to hear you are back in action. My wishful thinking these days includes a vaccine that works and doesn't have dismal side effects, and maybe requires only one dose; that the virus causes immunity for the long term; and that the virus mutates so that it is mild or innocuous. Too many good people are gone too early from it.

 

[bradical]

Glad you you're feeling better, dude.

Good to hear!
