Before this occurred we knew zero people who had covid-19, or who were at least positive asymptomatic. That's the scary part. Half the people with it show zero signs. I couldve simply walked by that person in an aisle or parking lot or wherever and one micro droplet made it's way into my body or my son's body. We'll never really know.

My aim was to show the reality of the prevalence covid-19 remains to have. It's not going away. NJ did it right, but I fear we're backing off restrictions too soon. If trump took this seriously in December when europe warned the US, or in January when the first case was documented, would we be having this conversation? Would I have gotten sick?

Too late for that. Its here. Be prepared. Forecasters predict 70 to 80% of the US population contracting it. Herd immunity isnt a bad thing. A good vaccination would be better. Eradication is far superior. I'm hoping the brunt was delivered to me and me alone, that my family feels minor symptoms or is asymptomatic. Not falling on the sword or being hero, I dont want anyone to feel like I did or worse. Not here in my house, or in any of your homes.

Thanks for the well wishes. You're good people. My post seems to have accomplished it's intended purpose. Be safe out there and when I recover, I'll get back to doing what I love...
