What was your first symptom of Coronavirus? Did you know you had it right away?
https://www.quora.com/What-was-your-first-symptom-of-Coronavirus-Did-you-know-you-had-it-right-away
I know two people who had the coronavirus/Covid-19 in late March and in April. Both said that the first symptoms they had was a very distinct itch on the back of their throats a few times and each time it lasted for a few seconds. One friend had a burning feeling in their lungs that lasted a few weeks, and about one day of feeling a bit fatigued. He did deep breathing exercises and used a cough medicine with an expectorant ingredient a few times per day. His symptoms passed after a few weeks but once or twice a week he still feels a bit of pain in his lungs. From what I read, damaged lungs may take months or even years to fully heal.
The other person got a bad cough and about a week of fatigue, before she started to get better. They both recovered after a few weeks, but they still feel some lasting after effects. They didn't get tested because their symptoms weren't severe. They just stayed at home and self-quarantined for about 6 weeks.
Covid-19 affects victims in countless different ways and degrees. I may have gotten it in late March and early April, I had a bit of a runny nose, which I usually got when a cold was starting. By about mid April it was gone, so I may have gotten it and been asymptomatic.
Did you or anyone you know have any symptoms???

So, every time I go into the gas station near me I've been the only one in there besides the cashiers that has a mask on despite a message on the door going inside telling people to please wear them. In the local Walmart it's about 50/50. Way too many people aren't taking this seriously. Maybe it won't be today or tomorrow, but I don't see how this doesn't eventually spread like wildfire. Maybe once it gets worse again around here people will care. I just don't know why people tend to be stupid until it's too late.
I'm just glad I had p95 mask that I bought for work that I got way before the pandemic was a thing and it was still possible to get them. There is just no way I can trust other people around here with my safety at this point. It's getting to the point I don't even want to go visit my mother anymore even if we are both outside and away from each other, and even with a mask on, because even though I feel well and probably don't have it I have to at least assume the possibility I could be an asymptomatic carrier at any time, and I don't want there to be a weird slip up where she somehow gets it.

Butterfly effect ~
If Trump hadn't been elected president the coronavirus pandemic wouldn't have happened.
Without the pandemic I wouldn't have seen The Big Lebowski movie last week, my new favorite drink wouldn't now be a White Russian, I wouldn't start to become an alcoholic, and I wouldn't be considering changing my name to The Dude...I don't even bowl.

Silly people Masks are for wimps, unless real men are standing armed in a state capital somewhere or complaining about the Federal Government. Then Real Men wear Masks as a symbol of rugged individualism. Or something.

Well if you had the Alien Monster drooling all over you. You'd sure want to have a mask on...

It's as if things have been allowed to slip back to normality. This virus will be here for a while.
Something that has never been mentioned is the potential use of covid as a chemical weapon. I find that a bit strange given all that went on before (when there wasn't any weapons of mass destruction).🤷♂️

I suspect Masks will be de rigueur for a long time...

It's all about freedom, not common courtesy. Common courtesy, much like common sense, is not so common anymore.

Hmmm, very interesting ... very fishy ... very shady ... very agenda-riddled.
Let's see:
All the current new Covid-19 case spikes are being blamed predominantly on the reopening of BARS and the upping of capacity on Restaurants AND on packed beaches. Secondarily they are also being blamed on gatherings on Mothers' Day, Fathers' Day, Memorial Day and in general congregations of any and all types.
That is --- all gatherings EXCEPT the shitload upon shitload upon shitload of Protests / Riots.
There is no denying that leaving this ginormous source of new Covid-19 case spikes out of the narrative of blame benefits a certain group and the Democrats. They could argue until they turn blue that the rioters, arsonists, looters, thugs and terrorists and their sycophants were outside and thus there was no risk. If that's the case, why blame the beachgoers packing the beaches? They have been outside as well. If beachgoers are gonna be thrown under the bus as a giant source of Covid-19 cases, then so should all fucking jackasses who participated in the protests / riots.
