(This has an excellent description of the onslaught of her symptoms with details unlike I've yet seen. Worth the read.) > The actress said the first day she exhibited symptoms began with a "sore throat, fatigue and headache," which progressed to a "mild fever" of 100.3 on day two. Her fever was accompanied by "horrible body aches, shortness of breath, major fatigue" and "no appetite" as well as a "deep, dry cough." On day three, Matthews said she had no fever and "minor" aches while her lungs got "much worse". She continued to have shortness of breath, fatigue and no appetite as well. Matthews' lungs continued to remain heavy and she was short of breath on day four, despite her symptoms seemingly becoming "more mild," she wrote. She also lost her sense of smell and taste. Days five, six and seven consisted of "more or less the same" symptoms. "feeling more like myself, still experiencing shortness of breath, loss of appetite, fatigue and no taste/smell but overall, doing okay," the actress said of days five, six and seven. She also pointed out on Monday night that testing for coronavirus is "INSANELY hard to come by." The "Frozen 2" star said she only got tested after learning she had been around someone who also confirmed positive and showed symptoms.

After a lot of searching, symptoms posted by such as CDC are just totally vague. This young lady actually posted some great details which, in my opinion, is important to know. Also shows how a healthy person's sickness progresses in comparison to someone with an already compromised immune system.

and she didn’t die so it’s all good. The worst part of a pandemic is people dying. When lots and lots and lots of people don’t die it’s not much of a pandemic

but it is an excuse to ruin Trump’s economy and perhaps keep us quarantined until after the election

I agree. The panic portion of this entire thing is manufactured for reasons well, beyond our “safety”. That said, there aren’t tons of folks dying from this. Those who are are the same category as would die from the common flu in the first place. The concern, of course, is apparently this bugger does spread easily which....sucks.

You will have martial law before what you suggest. Coronavirus was no accident.

I give this 2 weeks and governors and the President will be under tremendous pressure to adopt more of a quarantine the old and sick and do more a herd exposure\get immunity type program. What gets lost with the doomers is the fact that a country like China with 1 billion almost a homogeneous genetic profile and living in closer quarters than the US managed to keep this to a mild epidemic level and ridiculously low level of fatalities(no matter how you slice the data). As each day passes I am thinking this is more paranoid hype and Democrat political panic than anything.

...oh and we are what 6 days now behind the asent up the Italian bell curve now /s

She does not say how often and closely she had medical guidance about staying home, and what meds and homeopathic supplements she have used

For most people esp older (50+) shortness of breath is a real flashing red light that should be treated at home only with expert consultation and management

Hopefully her lungs were not permanently damaged

Making the announcement is a good career move for the unknown actress.

Granddaughter of Michael Landon, who had kids when his character was still supposed to be a teenager or something.

AIDS was a pandemic and authorities couldn’t even close ‘bath houses’ where strangers would meet strangers to have sex in public.

now those afflicted don’t even have to tell potential sex partners

and those in risk groups want to donate blood (sex trade is fair trade)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epidemiology_of_HIV/AIDS
HIV/AIDS, or Human Immunodeficiency Virus, is a global pandemic.[1] As of 2018, approximately 37.9 million people are infected with HIV globally.[2] In 2018, approximately 57% are men.[2] There were about 770,000 deaths from AIDS in 2018

Yes and no. After day 7 she posted she was “feeling more like my old self.” Which IMO is good news for anyone who catches it and is basically healthy. I mean, when folks I know get the common flu that’s about how long they are ill.

I dont think the world really knows what happened in China
Wuhan former population 11 million is still a ghost city
Where are the “ recovered”?
Some reports people who were discharged are getting sick again

Italy is a much more transparent example of the effects

No, she doesn’t give that. What I wanted out there is what I haven’t found yet. Real-time “how I felt” information. I’m sure whatever time she’s staying put is same as what the Hanks are doing, who survived quite nicely I see. As for lung damage, maybe she’ll post that at a later date?

She may be “ feeling like herself’ but she could be shedding virus for another 3 weeks

That’s not how it works, sarcasm or no.
