Re: My son has COVID-19. He lives in SF
He was at the conference in SF where the guy who had to be flown to CT and is in a medically induced coma.

My son's symptoms are:

Mild sniffles
Stiff neck
Feeling run down.


NO: Fever, or aches and pains.

It took a week before he was deemed 'qualified' to be tested.

Then it took 5 days for the results to come back.

He'll go back for testing to see if he's stopped 'shedding' the virus.

I sent him the liposome vitamin C that Trin recommended along w/the copper.

Just wanted to let you all know what's up.

You help me with all the valuable info, so ....

Praying that Rob recovers quickly

I just found out I may heave been exposed too. Appafrently it happened over 1 week ago, I don;t have a fever, congestion or soreness (yet), but have had a mild sore throat the last 3-4 days (it may just be allergies that I suffer from each spring)

Re: My son has COVID-19. He lives in SF
OP thanks for bringing this up because this brings up a very valid and maybe a concern.

I am 40 and in Iowa. This past week I have been sick with head and chest congestion. Really bad cough and made it hard to breathe at times just because the lungs hurt. Was very tired but essentially stayed away from work (ability to work from home), people, and loaded up on Emergin-C.

Today is day 5 and I feel about 90%-95% but honestly it felt just like a cold I had back in October but LESS impactful. The one I had last fall kicked my butt for 2 weeks.

It crossed my mind that maybe I should have gotten tested but then again with the back and forth on costs I sure in hell didn't want to get nabbed with a minimum $150 co-pay (our entire family has had multiple colds this winter so its been an aggravating way to spend $$).

With the way you described it...I feel many, many people are in the same boat as myself. They'll play it off like they normally do as just a "cold".

All I got to say, is if I did have Covid-19, it was a mother fucking pussy lol.

Re: My son has COVID-19. He lives in SF
I reported yesterday that my husband's doctor cousin in NYC has COVID 19, but oddly enough....no one had any curiousity about that.

He is achy, has a runny nose, mild fever, and it is a MILD FLU. His wife, who lives with him, does not have it.

This is a new SEASONAL FLU VARIANT, out of Asia, as virtually all of them are, and there is not a damn thing we can do about it. This hysteria and all the cancellations are pointless and we are being PLAYED. This is being hyped as a cover for the destruction of the US economy.

Re: My son has COVID-19. He lives in SF
If he wasn't tested, he said he'd never suspect he had it.

BTW: He's 42 yrs. old
 Quoting: JanJan


So that means thousands of people are like this case or Rudy Gobert running around ignoring all the fuss and never getting tested.

Once the symptoms fade they would test negative I guess?
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 78322562


My son wasn't running around. He and his family had WF deliver groceries even.

I sent him the vitamins that Trin recommended via Amazon.


However, I'm sure there are tons of people running around w/it with the same symptoms he has and think nothing of it
 Quoting: JanJan


Most people won’t get tested and will be out and about. They would have to be anyway to go out and get tested. I’m just treating anything I get like I was infected with it. I won’t get tested.

How many times was he tested?
80% of positive test results are WRONG!

So chances are HIGH he doesn't have it!!!! 80%!

20% chance he really has it.

NO PANIC, ok?

FEAR causes lung cancer and lung issues in general.
Tell him it's 20% not more.

This also means the official numbers are way too high.

Divide them by 5!

Haste makes waste.
And PANIC causes sickness. It's stress for the body.

VERY FEW people really have it. 400 in the whole of the US if you correct the numbers...
Give him COLOIDAL SILVER, garlic & ginger.

No side effects.
And maybe OPC.

Aren’t they saying fever first?

I have a stiff neck from sleeping badly, need a better pillow. I have slight phlegm build up, I think because I started taking high dose vitamin c. Other than that my nose is clear and no cough.

I know people think that if a guy lives in SF he's gay.

He knows that too and finds it to be a pain in the ass, but understandable.

He can't wait to get the hell out of there. It's a cesspool.

Wants to move to Austin to be near his sister and her family.

How many days since infection now?
 Quoting: ^TrInItY^


14 days. He had to wait that length of time before he 'qualified to be tested. Not sure what the criteria are for that.

I'll ask him more today.

When he called last night, I was gob smacked.

I freaked out after I got off the phone w/him .
 Quoting: JanJan


I think the supplements will help him.

You just have to try to prevent if from getting a foothold in your lungs..

Don't forget the 'clear lungs'....

Suck on vitamin C gummies if he can find them too...

Try to keep it at the back of the throat..

It takes hold there and grows...

I second this. Your son and his family are going to be fine. Try not to worry. This is ALL hype. This is a new variant of seasonal flu, that's all it is. If he has no underlying medical problems, he should be fine in a week or two.

For the life of me, I can't find how long a person is sick with it. From worst case scenario to best case.

Just how long it takes to incubate.

Does anyone know?
 Quoting: JanJan


That information is being withheld from us--

Incubation period
Ro rate
How long it can live outside the body....

If they've isolated and identified the virus, they have these answers.

By "they", I mean CDC, WHO, China, the US... the know the answers to these questions.

Seriously you have to stop with that. In some instances is no worse than a cold. In some instances it can be very deadly. Sure I would agree that it is flu-like but they are different and we must treat it that way.
