Day 30 for me. 13 were in the hospital.
Still on oxygen (1.5ml) 12-16 hours a day.
Weened off while resting, but need to go back on it
when heart rate goes up to 110-120bpm @ 91-93% oxygen.
Oxygen on at 1.5-2ml keeps it at 95-97% with 70-80s or lower bpm.

Sure. I've had many friends get the flu for 2-3 weeks recover a little and about a week later they got it again for well over a month. Some even died of it in the past. I've had many friends die of Pneumonia and you know what murraT, they didn't have to wear a mask. All these people that die of colds, the flu and Pneumonia never were required to wear a mask. A lady i play music with lost her dad in July at the age of 102. Bad kidney strokes, etc. he died, guess what they put down on what he died of? She also lost her mom last week at 99 years old. Bad kidneys, bad heart, Alzheimer and guess what they put down as the cause of death? Remember i work Hospice, nobody dies off anything but Covid all of a sudden. Yes Covid is real but as legit as our last election. You drink the Koolaid MurraT

Sadly, I've seen both extremes, and it can be heartbreaking. I just have a hard time understanding why the world has not stood up and told China to FO. Whether it was a genetic engineering experiment, or someone eating a bat, it's on them. They've now killed more, and destroyed more of the economy, than any military action could have hoped for.

Cancer: Some have a few cells scraped off, some have their entire bodies ravaged
Food poisoning: Some get nauseous, some die
Flu: Some saty in bed with a box of Kleenex for a few days, some die
HIV: Some take drugs and go on uninterrupted ala Magic Johnson, some whither away and die like Freddy Mercury
Car accident: Some walk away, some never go home.
Heart attack: Some survive more than one, others die immediately
Stroke: Some recover, some die

Then there's Covid which is truly unique when compared to the things listed above. See with Covid, some people have no idea they even had it, and others never leave the hospital and die.

Oh wait, that's not unique at all now that I think about it.

I've know at least 7 people that tested positive with Covid and were down between 3 days to 2 weeks. I've know people like that for the last 60 years including myself with the flu that were down for 3 days and sometimes for a couple of month. This lockdown shit is the biggest BS since the beginning of man. Sure people get it and die of it. But small businesses being shut down and all this B S restriction. You can't enter a restaurant without a mask but you can take it off once you sit down. Have to put it back on when you go to the restroom but take it off again when you sit down. All the coaches and refs in all sports have to wear a mask but not the players. 2020 will go down in the future as when mankind became the dumbest.

It affects everyone differently, just like any disease. But we don't have our world come to a halt.

Expect to do NOTHING without one.
Quantas Airlines just announced that once a vaccine is “widely available” they will require international passengers to prove they have been vaccinated by showing a “electronic vaccination passport,” whatever that is. Yup, “Show Your Papers” to be able to travel is coming back after being eliminated by WWII.

China may have released the virus, but the economic destruction was our choice.

60,000 people in the U.S. died from the flu last year. Nobody except close friends and relatives cared. No lockdowns. No masks. No “social distancing.” No bankrupt businesses. There’s a magic number of annual virus deaths below which nobody cares, and above which it’s Armageddon. The number appears to be super secret.

I predict around 2.9 million people die in the U.S. this year. Just like last year and the year before. With the horrible deadly WuFlu it should be at least 300,000 more this year than last year - but it won’t.

CA bound to hit 25,500,000 eventually.

How come flu season starts over with counting in October but WuFlu count just continues with no reset?
