it's interesting how gwamps didn't leave when some people made fun of his dad dying of cancer but making fun of his low-key Trump support was a step too far

a testament to the reality distortion field that was 2016-2020 :dts:

Please stay safe and don't take this shit lightly everyone. I'm not as unlucky as Silicone_Milk in that I don't cough up blood though thankfully, or have muscle pain/eye pain. Recovering alcoholic so I can't even take vitamin C because my iron levels are dangerously through the roof. (My doctor said vitamin c makes your body absorb iron even quicker than normal, i'm 20x iron levels than normal).

I did everything, wear an n95, wash hands after every visit out of the house AND sanitize them with alcohol etc, barely went out, never touched my face before I washed them and I somehow still got COVID, tested positive today.

I think Captain Mazda, Puff and a few others are from the downtown Toronto area and that's where i'm 99% sure I think I got it (I live in Milton but commute to Toronto several times a week), so please be careful guys. This shit is no joke.

Constant shortness of breath, if i laugh my chest feels like it's being stabbed with an ice pick (thanks youtube), absolutely bed ridden. Nausea, headaches, the whole nine. I wouldn't wish this shit on anyone, it's brutal.

Damn, hope you recover quickly with no long-term side effects. Were you commuting for work? Public transit?

Nope. Personal vehicle, I visit someone every weekend and i'm also outside sales and have a lot of customers in the GTA (Conveyor industry so it's "essential" because of food production, automotive etc). She lives in a condo so that might be where I got it too, since those are petri dishes for this kind of thing. It's at Yonge and Esplinade so tons of people around there as well all the time. But she is showing no signs of being sick. Might be asymptomatic so is going to get tested as well. Even when I went in the elevators etc I would use lysol wipes to push the buttons. I tried as hard as I could not to get it and bang, got fucked lol.

Please stay safe. :up:

Take care of yourself Bacon and get well soon! We know a few people who have had it and were coughing, and one lost taste/smell. We never socialized with them, but I am thinking they may have got it when they traveled to Los Angeles for a time there. We didn't let anyone in our house and went through 3 boxes of disposable gloves, whenever one of us had to leave to go shopping or run some errands. Our friends quarantined in a room in their house. His wife had to leave his food outside his door. Our other friend may have got it from him because they were in contact with each other.
They never went to the hospital, but isn't difficulty breathing a sign to get yourself into the ER?

It's very dull if i'm laying down, only when i'm walking around say to go to the bathroom or get a glass of water it gets bad. I'd rather just stay home unless it gets to the point where if i'm laying in bed and have shortness of breath.

Thanks for the well wishes as well everyone. :)

yikes. that sucks bro, especially since you took so many precautions

the only time i'm in an enclosed space with strangers is grocery shopping, but now i'm wondering if even that's way too risky, especially here in UK

I was only referring to what you were saying on I believe page 6 of this thread about older people vs younger people being "saved". I had said it before I even knew I was positive. Let's just forget about it for now I don't have the mental energy to argue lol. Regardless anyways, I appreciate the well wishes, thank you Eraser. Stay safe as well, hope you or anyone in your family doesn't get sick. :up:

I think I was an asshole once to you too regarding something to do with your old age or something so I apologize, I guess it takes a life threatening illness to realize it for some morons like me trying to be funny and edgy.

You're right about the precautions, I did anything and everything I could to not "get it" and still happened. The only extra measure I could have taken with how anal I was about it would be to wear a hazmat suit or just not leave the house period. Having groceries delivered costs a bit extra but it might be worth it at this point. I guess the delivery person could spread it to you as well by some chance so i'm not sure other than wiping every single thing you buy off with wipes how you could prevent it 100%. Still better than going to grocery stores though as they are basically a sardine can but with people lol.

Not sure whats going on in the UK but Canada has been limiting hours of stores to less hours basically making more people cram in the same space at once. Makes no sense and it's very careless.

Anyways, be careful and hoping you and everyone here as well stay healthy! :)

Australian authorities did the first 100 vaccinations for the nation yesterday on the Gold Coast. Why just the 100, anybody's guess. Personally I think I'll 'get the jab' nearer September.

That soon? Wow, I was thinking I'd have to wait until late May/early June to get the first shot.
