Re: Life Under Coronavirus

Looks like the government is looking to fast-track hydroxylchloroquine to treat this. Fingers crossed. m My son developed a low-grade fever last night. No other symptoms, he's his usual perky self and in good spirits. No one else in the house has any symptoms yet. The fever goes down with acetaminop...

Re: Life Under Coronavirus

HAs to living under CV--I missed one of my RX's, have it ordered at Walmart and am going to use their drive up service for the first time ever once I decide to go pick it up. I had a small list of random items to purchase but I decided to table that idea and just get what I need from outside the st...

Re: Life Under Coronavirus

The malaria drug? No clue on treatment. Things aren't at a point of needing any serious treatment yet. We don't even have a confirmed case at this point. Yes, it's also an anti-malaria drug. Please keep it in mind; my understanding is that treatment is more effective if it's prescribed sooner. I do...

Re: Life Under Coronavirus

EA, any chance of her being able to get a scrip for hydroxlchloroquine? Apparently there's buzz coming out of China and South Korea that it shortens duration and improves symptoms, and it's been approved in America to treat Lupus for forever. Thanks for keeping us posted, hoping you guys have answer...

I'm sorry to hear this, MDO, though glad it relieves some of the anxiety about possible exposure.

I hope unemployment can get you by until this thing is over.

I'm so sorry, EA. Wishing her a speedy recovery.

Re: Life Under Coronavirus

My BJJ coach finally decided to close the gym today. I really feel for him. The last thing anyone wants to do in a pandemic is a grappling martial art, and these gyms are usually labors of love that aren't rolling in money (no pun intended). I've encouraged everyone I can to not cancel their members...

Re: Life Under Coronavirus

Our Governor announced that all restaurants and bars will be temporarily closed statewide. Gatherings of more than 50 are prohibited. Rumors are flying about how full Seattle area hospitals are. I have no idea. But I have lots of friends who make their livelihood in the bar and restaurant biz. Prit...

Re: Life Under Coronavirus

Well, it's looking pretty likely coronavirus is in my household now. Fever and hacking dry cough just appeared. Either I'm the original carrier or it's coming in now. Both seem technically possible. If I didn't have corona before, which I still think is quite likely, I am genuinely concerned about ...

Re: Life Under Coronavirus

I'm sorry that you are having to deal with this while preggers. I am watching two local Facebook mother's groups working their way through what didn't even faze them at the start. One wanted advice on whether or not to fly for her vacation and to see her aging (77/80)parents. I watched that thread ...
