PEOPLE chill, if it is Covid19 the onset of the illness after the incubation period is rapid and you start to be really sick really fast, it is not just nasal congestion or other flu like symptoms, you will for sure know is Covid, and won' be having energy or desire to be online...general body malaise, chest pains, inability to take deep breaths due to the pain (usually lungs are compromised with pneumonia and or pleurisy, reason for the pain). In the worst case scenario if you do have it, get yourself isolated from others cover your mouth/nose and get to a hospital. They should administer Plaquenil/antibiotics/IV fluids, positive response within 48 hours means you are going to be ok. The elderly and those who are immune compromised have a higher risk of course.

In the meantime STAY at HOME, WASH your hands often, keep extra hygienic habits, protect your self and your loved ones if you do go out because there are a lot of careless irresponsible people out there. Spring weather will help

This is dangerous advice, because it's not correct. Some people don't get the symptoms at all even after being infected. When they do appear they appear gradually. I'd urge everyone to do due diligence before posting such assertions as they can be fatal!

I'm posting verbatim the "What are symptoms" from WHO:

The most common symptoms of COVID-19 are fever, tiredness, and dry cough. Some patients may have aches and pains, nasal congestion, runny nose, sore throat or diarrhea. These symptoms are usually mild and begin gradually. Some people become infected but don’t develop any symptoms and don't feel unwell. Most people (about 80%) recover from the disease without needing special treatment. Around 1 out of every 6 people who gets COVID-19 becomes seriously ill and develops difficulty breathing. Older people, and those with underlying medical problems like high blood pressure, heart problems or diabetes, are more likely to develop serious illness. People with fever, cough and difficulty breathing should seek medical attention.

I will re-iterate to anyone who is interested Covid19 when in full blown stage makes you VERY sick VERY fast, that means that during the incubation period: the chills, the malaise and the wonderful fever is your body trying to shake off the illness, the flu or whatever bug you have, so again if you have runny nose, sore throat and regular cold symptoms, keep your ASS at home away from everyone, and don't be going out to hospitals or medical centers that are overwhelmed and full of bacteria and very sick people, just to get tested, because your risk of getting re- or infected is higher. Believe everyone has had colds and flu, trust me; you will know is more than just a bad flu, when the symptoms persist or get worse, so when you do go in, go with purpose and to a facility that knows you are coming if possible (you may live in Timbuktu. ) So thank you tapori but WHO gets their information from people like me...WASH your hands -Good old soap and water, stay away from snot nosed, dumb individuals who read a little information and then they quote it verbatim, without knowing what it means. Peace and Health.

p.s. Anyone who is having difficulty breathing SHOULD get medical help regardless, you do not need a Covid19 epidemic to know that not breathing is a sure bet the person ain't right.
