I got sick with "COVID-19". I highly doubt that it's contagious. | |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 78835931 United States 11/28/2020 07:09 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I seem to recall hearing/seeing stories about complete shut-ins that live alone, who are almost never exposed to anyone else, getting COVID-19. I think those stories were why we saw the theory (and made-up info that they later reversed) from "scientists" that it could be living for a long time on surfaces. Quoting: FivelCubed Pretty sure there were threads on GLP about it. In my mind, those stories (if true) reinforce my belief that this illness is being delivered through some vector other than person-to-person. Through the mail like some freaks do with anthrax? |

(OP) User ID: 77710388 United States 11/28/2020 07:09 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I have it right now. I got it right after my husband, I'm quite sure it's a contagious virus. It feels similar to the flu but worse, tweaked, weird. Stranger symptoms. He was in the hospital, he just got out yesterday. He got it by going to the gym, he got it first. Then several days later I caught it from him. I get tired of peoples' wild theories. It's a virus, it's contagious, just like all other viruses. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 72727002 Ok. I believe that you believe what you believe. Doesn't change the fact that the vast majority of people who had it that I know, including myself and a family member, didn't get anyone else sick - including people they live with 24/7. |

User ID: 78973486 United States 11/28/2020 07:21 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | have not posted this in months, but i did post it at the beginning. early this year a friend's son got very sick with "pneumonia" and 50% of his co-workers were absent too, also due to the "pneumonia". his work was in an Amazon warehouse. I immediately said with that many people showing the same pneumonia-like symptoms working in the same building, it must be an environmental cause. Legionnaires' Disease is a pneumonia associated with faulty air conditioning systems. Bacteria get in the water and are circulated in the rooms of the building. Many were sickened with it from a single hotel in Philadelphia in 1976. They were at a Legionnaires' convention, hence the name for the disease. when the sick convention members were able to go home, NO ONE got it from them. only one case ever verified of person to person transmission. to sum up, I thought Covid acted like Legionnaires. and lots of the shipments were from China.

User ID: 78913960 United States 11/28/2020 08:01 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | At around 8:00 PM on August 4th I noted a slight sore throat and otherwise I felt normal. By 10:00 I had uncontrollable tremors and a temperature of 102. The shaking was so violent I was unable to hold a glass of water. I called my daughter and she held a water bottle and straw so I could sip. She assisted with giving me 2 doses of infant Tylenol. Then I was put to bed with cold compresses. The shaking was scary but the really weird creepy part was running, flashing number sequences in my mind and I was unable to turn it off . I eventually fell asleep and awoke in the AM with no signs of the ordeal except for feeling weak. There was no coughing or other s/s of respiratory problems, I had no nausea, vomiting or diarrhea. No gastrointestinal pains. Nobody close to me had been sick or got sick later. I’ve had colds, flu, measles, chicken pox, hives, and most of whatever a person in their 60’s can catch in the USA. This was totally strange. My daughter thinks it was the covid. I never reported it to my MD or tested for the virus. As stated above I believe the covid is fake but there just may be something being put out there. I received a pkg from amazon about one week before. the scribe |

Pepper, garlic, essential oil, coffee, candle. It is just gone. I just don’t understand it. I started with what I thought was a regular sinus infection then the loss of smell, nausea and now headache. It has been 7 days since I first got sick. I could always kick a sinus infection with my sinus wash but it is evolving differently. Now my head feels heavy but next to no drainage. My desire to eat is way decreased as well, I am guessing no sense of smell or taste is making that happen. |

Nobody called from back home to check up haha All the old people getting scared and forgetting that they used to get sick with the flu too My cousins are not too old, so i am gonna expect them to make a good recovery. I'm not worried, but it just pisses me off how it scares the fuck out of people when their family member gets it, and everybody wants to cry cause they think it's something terrible, even though the stats say otherwise. Problem being that the stats are averaged over a broad spectrum of people X amount get it Z amount die etc but it doesn't show the randomised situation of the virus or how 20 people could die from it it one region and only 2 in another yet it will still be recorded as 22 deaths across the board.

Had headache for over a week, loss of taste/smell, which has taken a long time to return. Lives with her teenage daughter, who didn't get it… or who knows—maybe my niece was the mysterious "asymptomatic carrier" who gave it to my sister. Sister had been quite careful, was working from home, and doesn't know where else she might have "caught" it. Brother, mid-40s, got it around same time. He assumes it was from a car trip he took with family, that included his niece, who was asymptomatic at the time, but a few days later felt sick and tested positive. She had flown in for Christmas holiday from CA to NJ, a few days prior. She had symptoms a few days prior to my brother, so that's why he assumes he got it from her, and not vice versa. He only ever said to me,"It was just another flu." My brother's wife and teen daughter, all in the same house, and in that same car trip, did not get sick. |

What I'm thinking about the 2-day separation between the onset of our illnesses is that WHOEVER is giving people COVID is directing microwaves at specific people, using locations of cell phones to determine where to blast, but they're making some incorrect assumptions. I think they're using slightly old database info from the DMV or post office to determine who is likely to be in certain households. With this info and the microwaves, they can try to emulate contagion. If they wanted to emulate better, they would make sure their info is more up to date and they'd also make sure our cell phones are actually close to each other before blasting us. This may also explain why children are much less likely to get it, as they don't have phones, don't have to deal with the DMV and generally receive no mail. I don't know if the choice was made to hit us in a targeted manner because they hate me (they do), or if it was just part of some semi-monitored algorithm. I suspect the old folks homes were mostly blasted indiscriminately. It may be a mixture of the two - targeted and indiscriminate.

Not my Mom, nor anyone else he was around. No one he knows had it prior to getting sick, either. So he doesn't know how he got it. This thing doesn't behave like a virus.
