Just got word that a friend who was ailing and tested positive last week is on 
the mend. He had all the usual symptoms - cough, fatigue, fever and also loss 
of taste and smell - and is feeling much better today. He started to feel ill 
about 9 days ago.  He’s in his late fifties and is in otherwise good health.

Tunnel ? Light ?

Advice from a virologist, allegedly.  Makes sense to me.

The new Coronavirus may not show sign of infection for many days. How can one know 
if he/she is infected? By the time they have a fever and/or cough and go to the 
hospital, the lung is usually 50% Fibrosis and it's too late. Taiwan experts 
provide a simple self-check that we can do every morning. Take a deep breath and 
hold your breath for more than 10 seconds. If you complete it successfully without 
coughing, without discomfort, stiffness or tightness, etc., it proves there is no 
Fibrosis in the lungs, basically indicates no infection. In a critical time, please 
self-check every morning in an environment with clean air. Serious excellent advice 
by Japanese doctors treating COVID-19 cases: Everyone should ensure your mouth 
& throat are moist, never dry. Take a few sips of water every 15 minutes at 
least. Why? Even if the virus gets into your mouth, drinking water or other liquids 
will wash them down through your throat and into the stomach. Once there, your 
stomach acid will kill all the virus. If you don't drink enough water more 
regularly, the virus can enter your windpipe and into the lungs. That's very 
dangerous.

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT - CORONAVIRUS
1. If you have a runny nose and sputum, you have a common cold
2. Coronavirus pneumonia is a dry cough with no runny nose.
3. This new virus is not heat-resistant and will be killed by a temperature of 
just 26/27 degrees. It hates the Sun.
4. If someone sneezes with it, it takes about 10 feet before it drops to the 
ground and is no longer airborne.
5. If it drops on a metal surface it will live for at least 12 hours - so if 
you come into contact with any metal surface - wash your hands as soon as you 
can with a bacterial soap.
6. On fabric, it can survive for 6-12 hours. normal laundry detergent will kill 
it.
7. Drinking warm water is effective for all viruses. Try not to drink liquids 
with ice.
8. Wash your hands frequently as the virus can only live on your hands for 5-10 
minutes, but - a lot can happen during that time - you can rub your eyes, pick 
your nose unwittingly and so on.
9. You should also gargle as prevention. A simple solution of salt in warm 
water will suffice.
10. Can't emphasis enough - drink plenty of water!
SYMPTOMS
1. It will first infect the throat, so you'll have a sore throat lasting 3/4 
days
2. The virus then blends into a nasal fluid that enters the trachea and then 
the lungs, causing pneumonia. This takes about 5/6 days further.
3. With the pneumonia comes high fever and difficulty in breathing.
4. The nasal congestion is not like the normal kind. You feel like you're 
drowning. It's imperative you then seek immediate attention.

 Advice from a virologist, allegedly.  Makes sense to me.
 
 The new Coronavirus may not show sign of infection for many days. How can 
 one know if he/she is infected? By the time they have a fever and/or cough 
 and go to the hospital, the lung is usually 50% Fibrosis and it's too 
 late. Taiwan experts provide a simple self-check that we can do every 
 morning. Take a deep breath and hold your breath for more than 10 seconds. 
 If you complete it successfully without coughing, without discomfort, 
 stiffness or tightness, etc., it proves there is no Fibrosis in the lungs, 
 basically indicates no infection. In a critical time, please self-check 
 every morning in an environment with clean air. Serious excellent advice 
 by Japanese doctors treating COVID-19 cases: Everyone should ensure your 
 mouth & throat are moist, never dry. Take a few sips of water every 15 
 minutes at least. Why? Even if the virus gets into your mouth, drinking 
 water or other liquids will wash them down through your throat and into 
 the stomach. Once there, your stomach acid will kill all the virus. If you 
 don't drink enough water more regularly, the virus can enter your windpipe 
 and into the lungs. That's very dangerous.
 
 IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT - CORONAVIRUS
 1. If you have a runny nose and sputum, you have a common cold
 2. Coronavirus pneumonia is a dry cough with no runny nose.
 3. This new virus is not heat-resistant and will be killed by a 
 temperature of just 26/27 degrees. It hates the Sun.
 4. If someone sneezes with it, it takes about 10 feet before it drops to 
 the ground and is no longer airborne.
 5. If it drops on a metal surface it will live for at least 12 hours - so 
 if you come into contact with any metal surface - wash your hands as soon 
 as you can with a bacterial soap.
 6. On fabric, it can survive for 6-12 hours. normal laundry detergent will 
 kill it.
 7. Drinking warm water is effective for all viruses. Try not to drink 
 liquids with ice.
 8. Wash your hands frequently as the virus can only live on your hands for 
 5-10 minutes, but - a lot can happen during that time - you can rub your 
 eyes, pick your nose unwittingly and so on.
 9. You should also gargle as prevention. A simple solution of salt in warm 
 water will suffice.
 10. Can't emphasis enough - drink plenty of water!
 SYMPTOMS
 1. It will first infect the throat, so you'll have a sore throat lasting 
 3/4 days
 2. The virus then blends into a nasal fluid that enters the trachea and 
 then the lungs, causing pneumonia. This takes about 5/6 days further.
 3. With the pneumonia comes high fever and difficulty in breathing.

I’ve been sick for 10 days now and was tested a week ago. Still no results but 
I did go through a few days of not really wanting to eat, although I didn’t 
have any stomach issues. The hospital has said I don’t have the flu.

I really must get my sarcasm meter checked.  It's patently twaddle and I 
thought I was making that clear to those who know me, which is most here.  
Maybe another sign of infection is loss of communication skills.

Rick -
What do you know about this:

https://news.sky.com/story/coronavirus-experts-say-new-symptoms-could-be-loss-taste-or-smell-11961439

I have two friends who are sick and experiencing the lack of sense of 
taste and smell - both reported to me in conversation without
any prompting as it were from outside sources... then confirmed by a doc 
in once case.
