How bad is it if you get it? Well....

Reported symptoms are headache, dry cough, fever, extreme fatigue, dizziness, shortness of breath, chest pain (in one case, quite noticeable).
Man that’s a lot of friends that got Covid , good to know it’s not that bad unless
The guy in his 30s reported completely losing his sense of taste and smell. It is returning slowly, but is still not back all the way. Someone else reported a strong "metalic" taste in the mouth. That is gone, and he has completely recovered.

Recovery time varied from about a week to 2 weeks.

The guy in his 30s is a surgeon, and no one else in his family came down with the disease!! He has a wife and two kids.

The two folks over 65 are a couple. He got it first, and then his wife developed symptoms about 3 days later. Both are completely recovered.

The guy in his 50s is a prison guard in North Carolina. He also recovered without incident.

Anyway, it's not horrible for everyone that's for sure.

In this (small) group, everyone is very healthy, no complicating factors (such as asthma, etc.) and all are in good physical condition.

I know of a several other folks who were all symptomatic of COVID-19 (and recovered), but were not tested so cannot be confirmed. One is my primary care physician!

So based on your study which is made up of a lot more friends that got Covid then anyone else I have heard of , this is no big deal. I will let all the folks overloading the hospitals and gasping for their last breath know that it’s just a bad cold ( unless it kills you )
