None of my family meets the criteria for testing.

Nobody that I directly know yet but then again the government has been very slow on testing. The United States has such a shitty patchwork health care system. 11% of people on here know someone that # will be doubled soon. Stay at home!

My sister in law and nephew were sick enough to go to ER. They were told they would survive and there were not any tests to waste on them. They were told to assume they have it and to go home and isolate.

Many places are doing that. If she gets worse at all, they should go back to the ER immediately.

No test, not counted in # of reported cases? I have to believe they are not. She’s an idiot so she went to work and put on a clean room suit. Her company sent her home along with everyone else. She incredibly stupid.

Yep. Not counted. That's a serious problem resulting from our POTUS fumbling of this pandemic.

Yes. She's an idiot

No, not yet!

I have a friend of a friend, and someone my brother knows, but that is about it. Starting to get closer!

The mother of a friend. She has a lot of bronchial problems is in her 70s and was in a nursing home. I don’t think she’s going to make it.

I know one person that tested positive. I have another friend that couldn’t get tested but displayed symptoms. She is getting better.

My cousin is recovering at home. Second cousin is being weaned off of a ventilator after being on it for at least a week. She’s in the Philippines.

Every agency is very secretive of how the virus is being passed on to others. Yes person to person but by whom?

Yes a coworker that I know personally. A few others from work that I don’t (large building). A receptionist/tech at my vet is strongly thought to be positive but due to lack of tests and that she’s not in critical condition, they aren’t testing her. But her primary and the hospital are almost positive she has it since she’s tested negative for everything else. Fact is the numbers would be much higher if tests were plentiful. They aren’t so many people everywhere are not getting tested. My cousin in England was thought to have it, so everyone from that side was isolated for 2 weeks. Again not tested due to lack of tests.

My closest experience... my friend’s coworker had COVID-19. My friend and her wife had to do the mandatory 12 day quarantine. She did not get sick.

No, but a friend of a friend is recovering after doing the malaria and Z pack thing. He’s actually almost fully recovered after being in really bad shape.

Long-time friend and possibly his wife. They live in a small HOA neighborhood with a common area. Out of the 36 houses and apartments there, six people have it. They probably all touched something in the common area, even tho they weren’t there together.

I also thought of chairs. Hard to sit in a chair without touching it.

Why are there such high death numbers but no notices of death or memorial from friends on social or more in the media on specific people? I have lived all over the world and stay in touch with many and no one actually no someone. No conspiracy theory here, just curious

I with you girls. My dr sent out a notice yesterday that went into detail about the virus in our county. For example, of the people who died, 100% are women. And, it noted how many cases per zip code (1, in my case). I was good info. I don’t know anyone personally, thank god.

Thanks for asking. I was tested Saturday and am waiting for results. Was told I’d know by the end of this week. Still very sick but not hospitalized.

Yes. But she is currently out in California.

I’m sure some of my friends here in DFW will all get it since they keep going out and partying sharing blunts and what not.
