Dennis, really glad you are better, sorry you experienced this. No fever,
huh? I thought that was absolute, based on what the "experts" have said.
My 11 yo grandson had it, high fever, cough, aches, lassitude. He was
refused testing because not a high risk patient, and no one in his
household was either. He got sick 3 weeks ago, no one else in family (2
parents in 40s, 7 yo sister) has gotten sick. So, many more people are
infected than the official numbers, which are based on positive tests.
Grandson is feeling lots better, but still can't make it through the day
without a two hour nap, other symptoms gone.
Scary thing I'm seeing now is kidney and liver damage is being reported,
and not necessarily evident when patients are said to be "recovered," but
showing up a bit later. This is coming from China, and a few reports in
U.S.
Keep taking precautions, folks, and stay healthy.
