it all started with my knees feeling suddenly sore for no reason. A few hours later I started to cough and develop a fever and my whole body hurt. By the next day I was in agony and my head was so hot it felt like it was going to pop like a zit. I lost my sense of smell / taste, which added to the difficulties of eating because I couldn't sit up or stop coughing. After 2 weeks I was down 40 lbs and had pneumonia in both lungs. Recovery started after about a month and a half and was difficult. Walking more than 20 feet was hard, but eventually I made a full recovery. This was in 2012, and was not Covid-19. There will people who get it easy and get it hard. That happens with all diseases, and covid-19 is no different. I'm not saying it's not dangerous, especially if you are older, but acting like its some sage advice to watch out because this one person got it bad, when we do know that the majority of people dont. especially if young. I think this doom and gloom does more harm than good and prevents us from taking steps to handle the virus appropriately.
