Yes, I know people at the hospital that confirmed the case in Erie county and when that patient passed last Friday.

My buddies wife is a nurse in Lorain county, they definitely have cases and more coming in daily.

What's it now, day 8 of the offical 14 day self distancing plan?

Any 'TOO' member or immediate 'TOO' member family infected/sick yet with this coronavirus?

Any 'TOO' member been tested for it yet?

Does anyone actually know/seen one person that has it and can share with us thier current condition?

I asked this once before and nobody really answered me on here.

More like crickets....

yes I personally know several people with it.

1. A lady used to work with has it and says or sucks. She coughs till she throws up.

2. owner of the company that did my dry in has it along with his wife and 2 daughters.

I wonder when the farmers are going to complain about seed and logistic issues and demand federal bailouts. 🙄😅

IDK what the particulars are regarding laws at the moment, but I think it would be interesting to see those that have a remote control drone with camera recording capability to share what's happening in their local area regarding public traffic/activity or whatever else they might pickup...

The other thought that came to mind is maybe right here on 'TOO', have an internal poll of the virus breakout. Members,/family/friends/coworker/acquaintance that has been infected, tested, recovered, etc, etc. Kinda like the John Hopkins University's Coronavirus 19 site.

Maybe the later might be too much, IDK, it's just a thought so please try not to beat me up because I have a very curious mind that's always reaching outside the box.

It's a good idea but unless it's volunteered directly from the individual I would be very hesitant to put PHI (Personal Health Information) of another on the internet. Could run into some federal HIPAA issues or civil litigation.

I was kinda thinking the same as well, but I wasn't exactly sure.

Slow is our friend. Find out more about the virus....treatments, vaccines. Also there is not enough supplies, medical equipment or front line caregivers, beds and ventilators to handle a mass sickness. If that happens people will die that shouldn’t if not slowed down to be manageable. IMO my life is worth more than the fucking economy.
Read the last sentence over and over gentlemen... LIFE IS WAY MORE IMPORTANT THAN THE ECONOMY... It sickens me to hear our leaders worried about the economy... Stop this virus NOW before it kills a large portion of our population...We are currently way behind the 8 ball with this virus... We have yet to see the worst of this virus as the shit has only begun to hit the fan...

I guarantee you that nobody who isn't displaying severe respiratory symptoms has gotten tested. If I was a betting man I would say you go to the doctor and they tell you its likely the flu or a cold so go home, but self-quarantine just to be safe. You walk back in three days later with respiratory distress and they first test you for a cold and flu. If those come back negative they may test you for covid depending on test availability and how bad you are. End result you have someone who has been on the lamb for weeks before they are identified as being positive.
Went to the Dr last Thursday with sinus congestion, cough, swollen tonsils, migraine, stomach bloating, and shortness of breath. Tested me for influenza and strep. I was negative for all that. Never tested for covid I'm guessing do to lack of tests. Was given an antibiotic and told I could return to work Monday morning. Only symptom I didn't have was a fever. Given I was exposed to people from all over the country and some that may have come from other countries a week and a half before I went to the Dr I think I should have been tested or at least told to self quarantine. I'm not saying I have it or I don't because unless I end up in respiratory distress and end up hospitalized we will never know. I have taken it upon myself to limit my contact with as many people as I can and keep monitoring myself and family in the house. All I can really do at this point. I'm sure I'm not the only one this has happened to and it scares me to think how many people really do have it that was sent back out and move around without a second thought and end up spreading it around.

Hope you get to feeling better very soon and thanks for sharing!

By "large amount" you mean between 0.5 and 1% of the population.

Wonder if all those pre deployment shots and malaria drugs we took will aid in the contagiousness of all of this? Helluva cocktail flowing through veins....
