At this point given what I have been through I hope it results in helping others. Again stay safe , healthy and isolate.
I am really sorry that my words were so harsh. I was wrong. I have read some other posters who say all kinds of things without documentation that just makes things worse and quite frankly make me mad. You didn't do any of those things. And you certainly didn't say anything about a conspiracy or about politics. I am very glad you are better and I also wonder if two of my family members who live in Manhattan and were really sick for several days at the end of January had it. They travel overseas and would have had ample opportunity to be exposed. They too were too lethargic to eat and had fever and coughing. I guess we will never know. In six months, many of us won't be here. We will be dead due to the virus. That is the ultimate truth. We must do all we possibly can to avoid getting it or spreading it.
