Anyone on here actually get COVID-19?

[JoeMan]

Did you actually test positive for the virus or you got something you thought was like the virus. I know a few people who had the regular flu, they were tested, results negative, 'go home you have the flu.'

It's complicated. I was refused by our health system to be tested because they wanted to save tests for only those who were really sick. Remember this was 3 months back when no testing was really happening, and Canada was sub 100 infections. I'm still confident it was the Covid19 virus because for 2 weeks prior to getting sick I had 0 contact with anyone. Then someone I live with came back from vacation, and immediately became ill. They were tested and DID test positive for the Covid19 virus. This is the only person I had close contact with during this time. My symptoms started soon after interacting with this person. Again even after they confirmed positive I was still refused by the health system to be tested cause basically I wasn't dying, and I hadn't just traveled. I was considered high risk by the health system though and was forced to stay in quarantine with my housemate for another 2 weeks.

I never got tested, but from the symptoms, I'm sure I got it in late March/early April. Headache, fever, cough, mild shortness of breath, diarrhea... but not all at the same time. Lost my sense of taste for 2-3 days. Lasted exactly 14 days for me. After the 14th day, it was almost like it disappeared. I'm in my late 40's. My wife and kids got it, too. The kids (teenagers) actually seemed to recover quite a bit faster than me and the missus.
To me, it really wasn't a big deal. But I know that others have been more affected.

those who are inflected are concern with the long term effort of the virus. I heard the lungs will never be the same. I also heard people who have O blood type has less chance of getting inflected.

This virus/illness, is called SARS-CoV-2. The media and the rest of the scam artists started calling it covid19, nuevo corona virus, because they really don’t want the sheeple to know it’s a SARS virus, just like SARS-CoV -1, the 'original' we all lived through with no shut down a few years back.
I don’t know anyone who got it and nobody I know knows anyone else who got it. I do know of a case where a man had a massive heart attack, showed no signs when the parameds picked him up and they didn’t do anything to try to revive him, no point, arrived at hospital almost cold, pronounced DOA, they tested his cold body for CV19, he tested positive, cause of death was listed as CV19. This from the attending emerg physician.
Welcome to captivity!

Yes, actually the Covid19 isn't a single virus. It is a group of different viruses which include the Sars virus. I just didn't think it was necessary to get too technical.

Seriously? I didn't know that.

I read this as well and not sure if I believe it given how many athletes have gotten it. If KD starts lighting it up with the Nets next year than you know his lungs are fine. I guess those that get severe reactions could have lung problems.

Couple of weeks ago, the gatherings at Trinity Bellwoods Park and Woodbine Beach was fawned upon. Was there any follow up investigation by LE, Media or Health Professionals as to how many people was infected by going to the park/beach?

It's more challenging to become infected outdoors so people gathered in outdoor settings will probably be less likely to lead to major outbreaks.

Social Distancing Is Not Enough

We will need a comprehensive strategy to reduce the sort of interactions that can lead to more infections.

A Hong Kong paper awaiting peer review found that of 7,324 documented cases in China, only one outbreak occurred outside—during a conversation among several men in a small village. The risk of infection indoors is almost 19 times higher than in open-air environments, according to another study from researchers in Japan.
