Still none? Well, you know what they say, no news is good news. 3nodding She's doing well, that's good. Glad to hear it. emotion_yatta
Glad to hear you're doing better. Keep at it.

Know we rate hurricanes, probably do rate storms, but hell if I know. Cat 1-5 is hurricanes. 5 being the highest.
And you're at 3? Yikes. Hopefully it only gives you NICE rain, not the down pour floor your a** out rains.

Awesome. Glad to hear your garden is doing well. Don't think I have ever seen a papaya flower either now that you mention it. Will have to look it up later.

Mozzarella is good.
You might be right too, hell, maybe he's:
ninja d**k cheese. ninja

Hell if I know. She says the test was supposed to come back yesterday, no idea, but today she said it wasn't corona was the flu....eh...still... We'll see, but she shouldn't have come to work. Don't know why she did. She calls out every other wednesday anyway. People are stupid and selfish. And too worried about their money and the economy. Such is the situation here at the moment. They're opening up the state slowly. Big mistake I think. Asses cant social distance as it is.

We're supposed to have a price watch, supposed to have something to prevent the inflation in these kinds of times....not seeing how what we supposedly have is doing any good. Yes, it would effect you too. If our's and other's go out of whack, that drives the prices up on import and exporting items, which makes you pay more for goods, etc...

As for those that lost jobs a coworker and I were talking about this today.
(the same one that came to work when she shouldn't have )
All you hear is people whining about the economy. I still say screw that.
The JOBS are out there, people whine they have no jobs, no food, there is a shortage. No...there isn't. Its a shortage of workers.
They're KILLING chickens for no reason other than because they have no people to work them. Dumping milk by the gallon for the same reason. Potatoes too. There is a SURPLUS of these items. But not enough workers. ...Those sitting around out of work if they were worried really worried about money and these things, they could go get a job just temporary doing these things... And same with those that could pass a CDL driving test for delivering said items.The pay and jobs are there, people are just too stupid and lazy to take them and would rather have the money given to them by the government.

I do not want to hear people bitching about "oh the economy is going to tank". Pft.

I can see where people might enjoy it, but you gotta figure your school systems are probably a lot better than our's too.

We have signs up for people to take only ONE item of some things. People don't listen. At the check out the people working them are enforcing the rule as far as I know. I haven't tried getting away with more than one item, though some try. People like that need to be kicked in the head. They started this bullshit in the first place.

I'll try making you one monday when I have off work and have time to do it. whee

Kinda feels moot already too. She's fine anyway. We've fought even lol Far away from each other but we still got into a petty fight bwahahahaha Yeah I've stopped stress eating and stress cleaning. 3nodding I've also realized I can visit her (at a distance) too. 3nodding so, waiting for that moment. 3nodding

Well it gave us rain BUT it totally devastated the other islands where it really hit/made landfall. fcking storm made everything worse with the current situation. some homes were destroyed. It's said the volume of rain wasn't the problem but the really strong winds that reminded or seemed like the winds of Typhoon Haiyan. smh.

I will try to take a photo tomorrow and show you. 3nodding I find them pretty though idk if you will ahaha


yes yes it is. 3nodding and oh god that is so ew. HAHAHA destroyed my appetite blarghhh emotion_puke BUT that cheeto def bleeds that.

how sure was she that it was just the flu. corona's symptoms is flu-like. scream is she crazy?! scream Exactly! she shouldn't have. Such is the situation here too. some Malls have reopened (all could but some refused to do so atm but will probably open soon as they're allowed to already). like wtf. Theyre saying its for the economy. I was so shocked. I thought they would at least wait again for another month but no. The national gov't wants to reopen other cities/regions too. The one's they say aren't so heavily hit or were not hit. And I'm like. Mass testing hasn't exactly been done everywhere. and they wanna open the cities? All I could think of is how badly that will go. This is a perfect example too when the issue about saving the economy comes up. I found this a few days ago.

ugh that's why they have to be stricter about it. gonk the situation is gonna get worse if it really goes whack. I get it this was actually predicted but i dont think everyone was expecting it to be because of hoarders due to a pandemic.

in your country, it's not exactly just a shortage of workers. it's also a shortage of people who would actually do that kind of job. it coincides with how, excuse me if it offends you but i have to say it, when people like cheeto (and the cheeto himself) says immigrants have been stealing "white people's jobs". no, they haven't been stealing jobs. they've been working the jobs that these people think are too low for them to do. in my country, some people are too scared because a lot are ill informed and easy to panic (then again our own fcking national gov't is clowning us so can't totally blame them) while others are literally lazy butts too. so yeah.

oh but b***h about it they will.

Nope not better. mostly depends on the school i think haha prestigious expensive as hell schools are at par with some of your schools there but the rest eh so poor. resources wise, yours def. the courses you could take. the opportunities.

I think this is the number one problem with the pandemic. People do not follow rules and so a lot of problems arise.

ohh! Thank you! emotion_bigheart I might be sending new trades of donations soon too because opening a lot of rigs again soon. Or should I send them to.. uh who else aside you receives donations for the Xmas giveaway?

Glad to hear things are normal still between you two. Fighting in this case is a good thing I think. Or a good sign. You're being more comfortable with her being away.
Go visit if you can. Why not? Things are opening up again... Pft.

Glad to hear you got rain. But I feel for the other islands. Man, what a s**t storm. To have your house and home torn up by that when there is a virus going around. Gotta be devastated.

Looking forward to it. whee

emotion_kirakira Well, that'll keep you away from the ice cream? emotion_yatta ( my own stomach protesting even after meds for dairy issues. ...augh...but...it was good ice cream.... gonk )

You are not wrong

Yeesh

Don't know if this one would show for you, c/p'd it here.

For a growing number of COVID-19 patients, symptoms last more than a month. Four young patients who've been sick 30-plus days say they're 'terrified.'

_Four young coronavirus patients with "mild" cases told Business Insider they are still experiencing symptoms after more than a month.

_Many of them feel guilty for not being able to fully return to work. Some say their families and colleagues are skeptical of their lingering illness.

_All four patients said they expected to be recovered within two weeks, based on CDC guidance.

_But doctors aren't sure how long coronavirus symptoms typically last, meaning patients can't plan for life post-recovery.




+ When Lauren Nichols felt a dry, burning sensation in her throat, her first instinct was to laugh it off.

"I joked at the start that I was a baby dragon in the making and I was going to be on 'Games of Thrones,'" she said.

A few hours later, she developed diarrhea. The next day, she had a low-grade fever, accompanied by body aches and pounding headaches. A week and a half later, Nichols started feeling short of breath. Just climbing a step ladder made her winded.

"I usually walk about 5 to 6 miles a day and I'm very active, very healthy," she said. "That was sort of my wake up call that this isn't normal. There's something going on."

Nichols, who is 32 years old, got tested for the coronavirus on March 17 in Boston, Massachusetts, where she lives. Her test was positive, but her symptoms still haven't gone away: Friday was day 51 of her illness.

Nichols is still recovering at home. Not a day has passed in which she didn't have diarrhea. Her appetite has disappeared, she sweats and shivers through the night, and there's a rattling in her chest. Her second coronavirus test came back positive again on April 20.

She is one of a growing number of young coronavirus patients with mild or moderate cases who have reported being sick for more than a month.

Three other patients under 40 gave Business Insider similar accounts of their illnesses. That contradicts guidance from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, which has suggested that mild coronavirus symptoms typically last for 14 days. For severe or critical patients, the World Health Organization reports, recovery can last up to six weeks.

But the limited nature of data about patients in recovery so far means we don't have much information about how long symptoms typically last. In scientific studies, patients who are considered "recovered" are usually those who have been discharged from the hospital. Since mild cases are encouraged to stay home, they're less likely to be reflected in that research.

"We're definitely seeing people whose symptoms last longer than two weeks," Dr. Nate Favini, the medical lead at Forward, a primary-care practice that's collecting data on coronavirus patients around the country, told Business Insider. Favini treats coronavirus patients in San Francisco.

He said the CDC has been "very slow to update their guidance on symptoms."

"It's hard to say what percent of people have symptoms that last beyond two weeks, but we're definitely observing that as a not-uncommon phenomenon," he said. "The virus causes all kinds of inflammation and dysregulation in your body and it can take even longer, after you've cleared the virus, for all of those things to go back to normal."

Working through the pain
Nichols said her symptoms reached their peak intensity about a week into her illness.

"I had moments of absolute terror," she said. "I was waking up in the middle of the night gasping for air. I had to prop my head up on four pillows just to get myself to be able to breathe."

She debated going to the emergency room, but said the idea wracked her with guilt.

"It was this internal struggle of, 'I feel like I need to go to the hospital, but I don't want to take a hospital bed because I can still breathe, but I also don't want to die at home,'" she said.

Throughout her illness, Nichols has been working from home, managing an international program for the Department of Transportation.

She tries to maintain a cheery disposition when on the phone, but her days are often interrupted by the need to sit on the toilet for several hours. Friends and family have a hard time believing she's still sick, she said.

"People just don't understand when they're not a patient how long symptoms can last," she said. "Everyone, my coworkers included, are trying to rush the recovery when I don't need that pressure."

Caroline, a 27-year-old resident of Houston, Texas, has had symptoms for 48 days, and told Business Insider she's also trying to work through the discomfort. (Her last name has been omitted to protect her privacy.) Caroline said she still suffers from fatigue and feels an urge to sleep 18 hours a day. But her work as a corporate attorney makes that impossible.

"I'm just chugging energy drinks to try and stay awake, which is absolutely not what I should not be doing," she said. "It's just kind of awkward to have to tell work, 'Hey, I know I got sick five weeks ago, but I'm still feeling bad.'"

Caroline's symptoms started March 15, when she got a fever after attending a bachelorette party in Charleston, South Carolina. The attendees included four women from Manhattan, which has become an epicenter of the US's coronavirus epidemic. During the celebratory weekend, the bride-to-be learned that her grandmother had died of COVID-19.

Caroline tested positive for the virus eight days after returning home. She had a cough, felt short of breath, and lost her sense of smell.

Caroline said she recently told a partner at her firm that she might be slow to respond to email because of her illness. He suggested she might just be run-down from a couple years of working long hours.

"People don't really believe me," she said.

Symptoms come in waves
For many coronavirus patients — both those with long-lasting and shorter-lived cases — the severity of symptoms can vary from day to day.

"Some days I'll have a spell where I kind of feel fine and then I literally won't be able to come out of the room for two days," Caroline said.

Kelsey Meeks, a 36-year-old attorney who lives outside New Orleans, Louisiana, said that during her worst bout of symptoms, things seemed to change minute by minute.

"Every day I would be like, 'I can breathe right now, but in five minutes am I going to be okay?'" she told Business Insider. "It was really scary — just that anticipation of not knowing which way the coin was going to flip."

Meeks has felt sick since March 30. Friday marked day 32 of her illness. Her main symptoms now include body aches, headaches, and nasal congestion. She previously lost her sense of taste and smell for about two weeks, and also experienced a pressure in her chest, as if "wearing a dress that is too tight." She had dreams that she was underwater, then woke up gasping for air.

"I haven't had a day where I woke up and I thought, 'Oh, I'm over this,'" she told Business Insider. "I can have a better day and then the next day I can't walk and talk at the same time."

Meeks said five of her family members tested positive for COVID-19, but on the whole their symptoms have been milder and resolved quickly.

"It was hard to understand why I wasn't getting better as fast as they did," she said. "There doesn't seem to be a rhyme or reason."

Meeks, too, is still trying to work from home.

"Once or twice a day, I'll hit what I call a fatigue wall, which is where I can't do anything. I have to go to sleep immediately," she said. "It's like the tired where you just don't care about anything else."

She's concerned about her job performance.

"I do struggle with the guilt about it and feeling like a failure," she said. "I'm getting to the point where my brain's functioning enough that I'm realizing, wow, I really have lost a lot of time over the last three-and-a-half weeks."

Even patients who recover and test negative can have lingering symptoms
Favini said it's too early to predict how long symptoms will last for typical patients.

Among patients who've suffered from severe coronavirus complications like pneumonia, acute respiratory distress syndrome, or strokes, the virus could produce lasting organ damage. The coronavirus can also result in blood clots in the lungs that don't show up on a regular CT scan. Favini said that could cause ongoing shortness of breath.

Lately, he added, he has seen coronavirus patients with persistent coughs and diarrhea.

"There's also people who describe not feeling right for a long time — just feeling 'off' in some way," he said.

Symptoms beyond two weeks could be the result of an ongoing viral infection, Favini added, but they may also be caused by secondary effects of the virus, like persistent inflammation. That may explain why a person can still show symptoms after testing negative.

That's what happened to Dio Cruz, who tested positive for the coronavirus on March 31. He'd been caring for his mother, who developed symptoms a week and a half earlier, at his home in Colorado Springs.

"I had this eye pain that was in both eyes, but it was more pronounced in my right eye," Cruz said. "It was so bad that I would typically have to shut down around noon, go upstairs, hide in one of my rooms and just turn off all the lights and sit there in the dark."

Cruz has congestive heart failure, so he's normally short of breath, but he also developed diarrhea, loss of taste and smell, and a fever that lasted one night. Before getting sick, Cruz had been waiting for a heart transplant. To get back on the list, he had to prove that he no longer had an active infection. His second test came back negative on April 15. But four days after that, he started having eye pain and diarrhea again.

"If you haven't gone through it yourself, you might find it hard to believe," Meeks said. "How are you OK this day, but the next day you can't complete a sentence without having to gasp for air? Why are your lungs burning, but your X-rays are clear? In normal times you would think, 'Is this person a hypochondriac?'"

Preparing for the worst
All four patients told Business Insider that they'd expected their symptoms to last for 14 days.

"The way that I understood this and the way that it was sold — I think a lot of people misinterpreted — but it was like, 'Oh, this is two weeks and you're done. And if you've made it to day number eight or nine and you are not hospitalized, you're probably out of the woods.' And that's bullshit," Cruz said.

Nichols said even doctors and nurses have been confused by her lingering symptoms.

"It was a very lonely experience for me," she said. "I felt kind of ignored by medical professionals because I think everyone had assumed you reach 14 days, then you're fine, you're recovered."

Cruz said he doesn't consider himself recovered.

"How can I be recovered when I'm still having some symptoms?" he said, adding, "There's no closure. I've kind of made peace with that."

Favini said there are two milestones for patients — clearing the virus and getting rid of symptoms — but both lack a concrete timeline.

"Recovery really has to depend on a person feeling back to normal," he said. "For some of these folks with strokes, that damage is permanent and they may not have full recovery."

Cruz and the other patients worry that the virus has done lasting damage to their health. Meeks isn't sure whether she'll ever fully regain her sense of taste and smell. Nichols is worried about permanent lung injury. They're all trying to temper expectations to mitigate frustration and disappointment in the absence of concrete medical guidance.

"It's just hard to plan your life at all when you are still feeling under the weather and you just don't know how long that's going to last," Caroline said. "I'm not trying to get my hopes up that this will be over at any point."

All four patients said they hope the public comes to better understand that cases can last for a while.

"I have never been sick this long in my life," Meeks said. "The whole world is going to have to be patient with those of us who've had this while we navigate what is still happening inside our bodies."

Opening back up is stupid. Very stupid. I agree with that guy. 0 is an acceptable number of people.

You speak the truth. They have been working jobs no one wants to work. It's true. Yes, it does potentially take away a job from someone native to the country, but if they wanted it, they would have put in for it, it just so happened that someone an immigrant or someone not so legal to be here got it first.
I've no problem with people coming over, but do it legally, that's all I ask. Every other country asks the same for everyone else, so, we should ask it too. If you've lived here your whole life due to illegal parents, ok, cool, but apply to be a citizen, get the benefits everyone else gets too if you're gonna live here.

I will not deny as a whole, we're probably one of the laziest countries.

I don't blame your people for being scared, I think it is good that they are. People should be MORE scared of this s**t than what they're acting like. The government I get is playing the game to not incite mass hysteria, but at the same time...need to get it out there that this s**t isn't calming down and opening it up is stupid. ( but, money. gonk )

I think your's while maybe under privileged and under funded, probably have better ethics.
For instance, did they teach you cursive handwriting? From what I learned, they do not here any more. It was 'too hard' for some kids, or something to that effect. What the hell? Oh, right. This they pass kids that should have failed, they dumbed down the curriculum, and it's no wonder we're growing up in an age that makes look smart
