Same with me. I wonder if we did in fact have coronavirus are we now immune to it.
Anybody On Here Actually Had The Coronavirus?

I work in a factory and there has been a lot of talk on the same line. My wife and I were both sick between Nov. and Jan. She went to the Dr and tested negative for the flu and was told its just a virus?
I had a fever during the last of December, tested negative for flu, and they called it a nonspecific viral infection.
Just wanted to throw my 2 cents in and say the same. My wife, I , my son, and my mother all had a fever for about a week with mild cough and flu symtoms. This was late last month.
I have chronic back pain form a career ending injury, and when I had my heart attack I thought the pain I was experiencing was just my normal everyday pain just a little worse, like on a bad day.
I sometimes wonder if all the inoculations I received (which reads like some horrific mad scientist wish list) before going over seas to the Far East (I was in a lot of shit-hole countries) in the 'Corps along with all the malaria pills we had to take daily would make a difference now with my system battling it should it befall me.
Maybe younger people aren't quite as safe as they first thought?
Coronavirus: Concerns millennial COVID-19 cases could increase as young people become ill
An increasing number of people aged 30 to 50 have been contracting the virus and becoming seriously ill.news.sky.com
I saw the fools on spring break at the beaches...
And Darwin giggled....
Yeah you are spot on mate. Darwin award winners each and every one of them.
Ah, youth! Bullet proof. I'm afraid I'd have been one of those chaps, drinking and frolicking on the beach and grabbing as much tail as I could. Not now!
There is something to be said for "making hay, while the sun shines".
Thank you for asking wintergarden. He had been retired at least 10 years, maybe 20, so nearly 80 I guess, but no medical issues that I knew of. Having said that, I should say that, as far as I have heard, there is no age below which guarantees survival of this virus.
There certainly is, just not during a pandemic when congregating on the beach has got to be asking for trouble.
There is also a saying of "Dont Shut Your Dxxk in the Door"
Youre right for sure, my friend. But those days of sowing wild oats are near and dear to the heart and history of the Funkhouse.
I sure hate it for all the kids who's milestones are being disrupted. Those years are a golden time in the life of a man. They just just wont get graduation and spring break back. I feel for my son who's first year of real baseball is cancelled (age 6), and my step-son's college graduation (age 22). I know its all for the best.. would It kill us to have a few little league games? or watch some college basketball?
I personally think they should lock everybody (not doing an essential job) and everything down until they can get on top of it.
Here in the UK they are talking about the health system being overwhelmed like in Italy. I've read doctors will have to start choosing who they can help because there just isn't enough capacity in the system to treat everyone.
Young people are getting seriously ill too, an 18 yo and a 45 yo father just died and I read a 13yo is in very poor health as well. It's not just getting it either it's spreading it to other (possibly older) relatives that could be a problem.
Hopefully we start to turn the tide and can get back to some semblance of normality but I don't see it happening any time soon?.
Yes, it would literally kill some of us. Impossible to tell who and how many, but for once, it would actually kill someone.
I hope it turns out that almost everyone gets the asymptomatic strain and inoculates against the more damaging one. But until then, it’s Russian roulette, albeit with a large, large revolver.
I would have to disagree; knowning SEVERAL people who have since recovered in the under 40 age range.
Where I live everything good is cancelled, but we still all have to carry on. Work is still on, stores still open, and cash is still being exchanged. Gas pumps are still being used, and bank machines. Everything is compromised, and still being used.
This kind of a half hearted lockdown is only killing our morale and economy. Maybe a total lockdown would flatten the curve.. that envolves shutting down the entire country for months. That would mean months without most modern comforts.. I just dont see it.
Looks like this way we'll crash our ecomony and still all catch the virus at once.
