I did one earlier. They said to self-isolate for 7-14 days, and self-medicate unless I start getting trouble breathing.

Same with my son in law and then when he eventually got a video consult with his doctor after having coughing fits for over a week it only took seconds before he had one of his coughing fits and they you got it and prescribed medication to reduce the cough. He is starting to recover but if he had been on the medication a week earlier would be much better. He has never had an elevated temperature.
I suggest the moment you get a cough get a video consult.
One of my family is on an island in Honduras. Martial law and they are not kidding. Curfew from 8pm to 6am but not allowed off property unless to shop or get medical. Only allowed to shop one day a week (set by ID/passport last digit). Shops only open three days a week. Smugglers have their boats sunk. Some idiot tourists who showed up on a yacht told leave NOW or we sink your boat and all its contents and slam you in the pokey. Funny thing is they got the message.The lockdowns/shutdown is a joke. The only essential places that should be open are grocery stores, hospitals and clinics, law enforcement, fire departments, and gas stations.

They're morons, but so are all the people buying toilet paper by the ton (Wouldn't you go with rice, beans, peanut butter, jugs of distilled water, gatorade first? After all without food, you don't really need the toilet paper...)
Yeah, I'm not too crazily worried, I just want to know for the family. Unless I get severe symptoms, I will treat this like a bad bug. Stay away from my family, drink fluids and take over the counter.
Fever still rising though.
Yeah but without food, TP is irrelevent.If I'm getting beans in bulk I am also getting toilet paper in bulk.
Yup, it is good for maintaining an electrolyte imbalance. You can dilute it about 1/2 with water to avoid a sugar rush.Gatorade? Seriously?
They sell it at stores in gallon size, and if water was to fail, it'd be good to have about a gallon per person per day. The odds aren't high, as the water system works fine.Why distilled water? Why not just water?
Well, that's 48 years, but regardless, we have 63.3% the number of beds and 158% the people. Basically there are almost 2.5 times the number of people to beds.Hey guys,
Some numbers that you might find interesting.
US hospital bed numbers over the last 55 years.
It seems the areas/ cities where living space is cramped are the most affected.Latest figures suggest New York State, despite having a population that's only one-third the size, is rapidly approaching the same number of infections as all of Italy. Of note, the rate of increase in Italy appears to be tapering off a little, whereas that in New York seems to be continuing unabated.

I sincerely hope that it's not the virus.Temp now a 100.6. I will call and see if they will test now. None of the shortness of breath or cough yet. Just fever, headache, body aches and chills. I really just need to know because of the family. Its not like they will give me anything regardless.
Yes. Thanks and too You allSeems things are starting to take a turn for the better in Italy. Stay safe Vincenzo.
People often compare New York city to London but for the same population London has twice the area.It seems the areas/ cities where living space is cramped are the most affected.
I sincerely hope that it's not the virus.
