    Posted long ago that mother and father-in-law got it in March after visiting our niece in NYC. Nobody I know since then has got it until now.

    College buddy and his family flew to California from Montana last week to visit his parents and he, his wife, and their two teenagers started feeling ill Sunday after getting home. Got tested and all four have it so they have to quarantine for two weeks starting last Tuesday. He says it’s like having a bad cold and his kids don’t really have anymore symptoms.

    So this makes me special. Save one life!!

    Scary

    Hope everyone ends up ok. I know one guy (sons baseball coach) that had it. His symptoms and story is absolutely terrifying.

    A colleague of my older daughter just lost her father to it, but he was in his 50s so it’s okay.

    One of my employees had a relative die from it this AM. He was 90 years old.

    40 million unemployed did their best to save him
    It was better this way. At his age he was living on borrowed time as it was.

    Look maybe we should have killed 40 million more jobs

    Mistake I guess

    My parents both got SARS back in the day, you know, before coronaviruses were cool!

    SARS is, in fact, a corona virus.

    Several common cold bugs are corona viruses and will give a positive result as will SARS. They'll all be counted as the China virus. Along with auto accidents, meth lab explosions and gun shot wounds.
