I think that is what makes this thing a problem - the majority of the people will have symptoms that range from non-existent to moderate. If those people don't know they are infected and don't take precautions, they are unwittingly spreading the virus to others that may experience severe symptoms or death. 2 people in my extended family have died - one was in a nursing home and not doing well, so a mild cold may have proven fatal. The other was healthy and just over 70.

You only need to look at areas like Houston or parts of AZ to know that this can be a serious issue as the ICU beds are near capacity. You, your family and others that have it are indeed fortunate to not have it worse.

On another note, I had a long conversation with a friend of mine and we have a mutual friend that owns a research lab and is studying the virus. Per our mutual friend, he said there were several strains that came in to the U.S. The one that came in to California was from Wuhan and symptoms were less serious than the one that came into New York primarily from Italy - this stain apparently was much more deadly, hence the differences in the severity of the outbreak in NY, NJ and CT. Not sure if this is accurate or not, but thought it interesting.

I hope you, your family and friends get over this with no further complications and would be interested to hear how long it takes you to recover fully.

thanks for the words Bay..appreciate it... I agree with different version part.. I really believe whats in south now in NOT the NY version or its way way weaker.... that I agree with.. and yes of course your right it effects people different based on ages and health...

I would only add about the Houston comment... their ICU is 97% as reported... now this is a fact.... also a fact that 365 days ago the rate was right at 93%... and that currently in Houston of the 97% only 12% is covid... so it is no way true at all that Houston hospitals are full with covid.. Thats media spin...
