My aunt is being retested so till the results are in we don't know. But she is healthy. Where she is at she has been in her private area with her phone and a tablet zooming with her new friends there.
Crossword puzzle on teams with everyone Zooming. Staff have a limit of 4 people that they work with. They are really doing more than we could hope for.
They watch tv. Each in their suites. But with zooming they are doing it together. Today they potted up vegetables for their green house in their own area. And photos of the plants going into the greenhouse.
Ann peacefully enjoying herself. If Ann is a sample I think very few of any but the two tested positive for it. They have been very carefully the whole time.

I still don't know anyone who is a C19 victim...other than myself. Did I get the virus? No. What I got was the Corona-cut. I couldn't stand it any longer. My hair was the longest its been since I was a teen. I would get out of bed in the morning and I looked like the Nutty Professor's even nuttier lab assistant. I had DW bring her horse clippers from the barn and she just gave me a buzz cut. Now I'll have to trim up my beard to match. It feels a lot better but it isn't a look I'll stick with for long. Hopefully by the time it is ready to cut again, the barbershops will be open. Deke, you're in good company! I take the dog clippers to Numb's hair (what's left of it ... heh) every few months, whenever he starts getting shaggy. He hasn't been to a barber in years! And how do you treat Numb for fleas?

Sounds like the symptoms... There's a whole thread of me whining on the other site, about how long the 'flu' was taking to run its course. I look back on that thread, and the email I sent to my doc, and wow.....just wow. I am convinced I had the Rona. Glad that you're recovered.
And glad that you're back.

Just passed a million U.S. cases, so that's about 1 in 330 people. I still know 4, my latest possible turned out negative. My old neighbor died from it this weekend after getting it in the hospital while he was getting a pacemaker installed a couple weeks ago. His wife and kids all got it from taking care of him. I don't count them as people I know since I haven't seen them in years and years, but we have enough friends in common that I heard about it.
If we ever get anywhere close to the 5 million tests a day Trump says we'll have soon, the number of confirmed cases will shoot up to 2 million in a week or two, and probably 3 million in the month after. Antibody testing will easily show 10-20 million more that had it.

Paisley, I'm glad your aunt tested negative!

@pony, Yes my cousin got it in Florida (near Ft. Meyers I believe) in early January. Diagnosed with bronchitis & put on Z-pak for 5 days on, 5 days off. No better and all the symptoms we now know are Covid. Goes back to different doc 1/25 as his sister, my cousin, had died at Thanksgiving but they postponed the funeral in WI till 2/8 so the family elderly could travel outside the expensive holiday times. So he needs to get better to fly home. They take x-ray and say "Now it's pneumonia and put him on other antibiotics". He flies home with DW on 2/6 and I am at the funeral Mass and reception for 8 hours total with him and close most of the time. I get really sick 2/12 but never connected it to his "pneumonia" as he had been on antibiotics for over 10 days when we were together.
I was down and out with all the symptoms except no high fever, only low, 2/12-2/24-ish. BTW, I am neve sick. Really. Just allergies.
Just found out 2 weeks ago by accident, he was tested and diagnosed with it. So I and DH are both getting the antibody test on Tuesday but from the latest info, we may be too late to be sure it is accurate. But we will get the test.

Now, one person I know has tested positive for an active case. Haven't seen that person since January. A few co-morbidities I suppose made her a target - obesity, end stage kidney disease on dialysis, diabetes. Apparently has been sick for a month, but not hospitalized.
