    So I finally know of someone that tested positive. A friend of our son flew to New Orleans for a funeral with his cousin who had tested positive but didn't mention that. The entire planeload of passengers died

    Not really, the friend came back and tested positive and his wife tested negative and and the guy went into quarantine

    Nobody actually had any symptoms.

    That's crazy. I've lost track of how many people I know who have had it, well over 30 by now. A couple very serious hospitalizations. No deaths thankfully.
    I know no one within one degree that has tested positive. Closest would be a classmate of my daughter in March.
    I'm with Grundle here and I know and converse with a shit ton of people; still nobody within 1 degree.

    So DNC, how many of the people who have or had the VID displayed symptoms? Of those, how many were serious and required hospitalization?

    Maybe the draconian measures in the West have actually reduced chinfections compared to this part of the world, I dunno. But they are stacking positives out here like cord wood, fo sho.
    MS ain't necessarily the healthiest state to begin with.
    I'm gonna wait on @PurpleThrobber to chime in with co-ed pics before I make a decision on this statement.
    One of the MILFs on my street in Mayberry went to Ol Miss. Can confirm.
    PICS OR GTFO
    Cum to Mayberry @Swaye . We'll will smoke 'em heap 'um peace cigars among the rich, spinner MILFs. Pack 'em hatchet for Biden Bro scalps...

    If you remove testing from the thread title, it still works. Who knew?

    Stacking positives but how many are actually false-positive? How many were severely ill? I'll say it again, people fucking die and it's tragic weather it's from a car accident, heart attack, cancer, the regular flu or the common cold. I just don't believe the VID 100% by itself is indiscriminately killing people. If it were, total death counts across the planet would be significantly higher in 2020 over the last 5 years.

    Fun fact about Covid. If you test postitive your friends and family will treat you like you just got diagnosed with terminal cancer.

    The majority (81% or so) had symptoms. Most of them mild (no taste, no smell, mild cough or fever). A few had pretty severe symptoms for a few days. Only three or four hospitalizations, the worst one was in ICU for I think 12 days. Early on they thought he was going to die, thankfully that was not the case.

    As @YellowSnow alluded to we have a much higher rate of preexisting conditions down here (and much higher rate of African Americans). I think the media has oversold it but I do think caution is advisable, especially in this context.
