I did. But it was low. 99.5 A bunch of the time it went into the low 97's. I don't want to be dramatic with this. If it had been up to me I would have just figured this was garden variety flu that was really persistent. I called my Doc because I couldn't sleep. Told him what was going on. He nagged me to get the test. Two phone calls and three texts. If this is it, I got super lucky. I'm actually hoping for a positive at this point. Since I seemed to have lived. If I get a positive, then I probably need another test to make sure I am not shedding the virus/contagious. Then, an antibody test? Then, can you get it again? There's so much they don't know yet.
I wonder if the pot bangers at NPR regret not tuning into Cuomo press conference this morning.From NPR
Ventilator Shortages Loom As States Ponder Rules For Rationing
Many states are projected to have excessive demand for ventilator machines in the coming weeks, but no state government has formally asked hospitals to prepare for difficult and complex crisis triage.
The word "comorbidity" appeared nowhere in that article. How many were dying with coronavirus versus how many were dying of it? What about the age of the patients?From NPR
Ventilator Shortages Loom As States Ponder Rules For Rationing
Many states are projected to have excessive demand for ventilator machines in the coming weeks, but no state government has formally asked hospitals to prepare for difficult and complex crisis triage.
So, on the balance, are the ventilators helpful, harmful, or neutral (ineffective)? First, do no harm?
We're bummed if your test comes back negative. I had the same thing and maybe it was RSV. OTOH, you probably already caught TEH COVID and had a mild case.Hey, it is what it is or isn't. I'm trying to limit my news exposure to an hour a day. When you have a test pending it kind of sucks to listen to 8 hours of "YOU'RE GOING TO DIE MOTHERFVCKER!" every day. (and yes that was an exaggeration. A small exaggeration, but an exaggeration none the less) Especially now that the Xanax has run out. You guys run with it. I'll let you know if I die. I will haunt the sh!t out of this place.
50/50 overall (as in everyone who’s ever been on a ventilator). Those on one for kung flu fair worse.
