SARS-CoV-2: Electric Superflu

I’ve had just the tiniest cough or twinge in my throat a few times and get super paranoid.

I take zinc lozenges because I read the virus doesn’t like them. I’m aware it’s 99% likely to be placebo but I don’t think it can possibly hurt and it makes me feel like I’m doing something.

What?

Had a stomach bug or something last few days. No cough or breathing issues. Saw an article that abdominal pain is an uncommon early symptom. Welp.

FYI my brother says Rand Paul is the first casualty of the purge, will never return to the senate lmao

“Through mouth” needs to be a t-shirt

I get a post-nasal drip very very often. Pretty much for a while after I eat every time and usually if it’s a little cold out. It doesn’t make me think I have COVID, but I’m very conscious about anyone witnessing me cough or even clear my throat.

Well the good news is that everything is an early symptom so no reason to worry yet. GL.

I’ve been pretty secluded before it got out here so probably ok.

Thought I saw him complaining of a cough and slight fever. Maybe I’m confu…

I like how the Q guys are always like - everything is completely controlled and pre-ordained by the deep state/illuminati/bilderburg, yet somehow also optimistic it will all work out and Trump and truth will triumph.

Lol, the millennials are just as bad as the boomers. Just because they’re going to get infected in such higher numbers because of shit like this, they’re going to start dropping dead in two weeks.

So I found out that the reason my girlfriend keeps talking about making plans within the next 6 months is that she thinks things will be back to normal soon. Like we’ll hit the peak with a week to ten days, then have a week or two of recovery, then things will be back to normal. I tried kinda gently telling her that there’s a decent chance that she’ll be working from home for at least three months, but she waved that away.

I feel like the general public believes the same thing, so I understand where she’s coming from. Has anyone had any success getting a significant other to take things seriously?

To be accurate, it’s probably technically Gen Z that isn’t taking this seriously.

My poor cousin - her wedding in Cancun in June is still technically on. I’m sure she’s hoping for a quick resolution. But there’s no way.

At this point if you told me WFH would only last 3 months that’s an instacall.

I don’t think there’s any precedent in human history for a disease that mutates like the flu but stays as deadly as COVID. It seems really unlikely that this is the eventuality. If it starts mutating and becoming seasonal it likely goes way down in mortality rate.

DJT: there is a great pent up demand. People are dying to go to restaurants. People are dying to go on airplanes.

For sure, if the line for when big concerts start happening again was set at 12 months, I’d still take the over.

I think it’s whatever the generation after the millennials, (whatever they are called), that are out living it up the most right now. But there are plenty of morons of all generations acting the dunce as this thing plays out.
