My mom has lupus and hoshimotos and god knows what else. She also is never home going through some sort of late life crisis bouncing all over the place like a teenager.. in and out of nyc, big gatherings.. I don’t even know. She’s nuts.

@UnderAlienControl my son has what I’m hoping is a cold as well. His nose is like bright red. Idk. Fingers crossed for you :)

Its not. It takes a month of your organs shutting down and finally you are choked to death since you cant breathe bc your lungs shut down aswell.

Just found out my neighbours (the ones I've been having such problems with for those of you who know) went to Barcelona to a huge football game there. In the midst of Italys outbreak. One of them works at the local hospital aswell. Shows how smart they are. And if they get infected it means I'll have it right on top of me and a big fat chance of contracting it. So those assholes may cost me my life.

barcelona is in Spain not Italy. Did you mean Spain or something else? I’m not following the outbreak internationally so I don’t know if Spain has an outbreak. If they don’t, you should be good.

A minute of organfailiure feels like a lifetime. I take it you have never had organ failiure? I have and its better to just die straight off than to experience that. Its a suffering you cannot imagine.

not had organ faliure but Ive been in pain more or less contstantly for the last 10 years with regular periods of severe excruciating pain mostly in my head so I have experienced a lot of pain but pain can't really be quantified and one persons perception of pain isnt comparable to someone elses.

This virus should really only be a concern with the young, elderly, weakned immunity, pregnant and homeless

So like... 1/3-1/2 the population?

I love how people say weakened immunity or old like it should make it matter less..

16.9% of us population over 65
3% of us population with weakened immune system
So approximately 20% of the population..

Approximately 19 million children between ages 0-4.. so almost another 5%

That leaves the at risk populations hovering around 25% of the total population in this country. Without even trying to quantify pregnant women.
