You don't need coughing and shortness of breath to have it.
True, there're people whom've it yet aren't experiencing any symptoms. That's why I said doubt, though since he's experiencing symptoms, of some other types of illnesses.
My belief was that if he's sick with a cold or flu & this, it'd be effecting him.
What in the world are you talking about? Do you have any first hand knowledge about this virus?
My belief was that because he was experiencing symptoms of a plausible cold or flu, his immune system obviously'd be weakened by either & that if he also had this virus, he'd then most likely be affected by those symptoms as well.
No but I don't believe that it's difficult to connect that a weakened immune system via a cold or flu, might put someone at a greater risk of another illness affecting them.
I get what you’re saying. If someone is sick with something else, then it seems likely they’d see covid-19 in a more extreme form since their immune system has already been or is currently taxed. Seems logical enough
I knew someone'd, thank you!

I'd agree that that'd be the case, if you didn't have any disagrees since you said it, using proper grammar. I believe, that some're within denial & others're disagreeing, simply because they dislike me/my grammar.0 -

I've wondered if I had this back in late December into January. My wife and her dad and sister flew to Denmark the weekend after Thanksgiving. Two weeks later they all came down with a fever and really bad cough. The fever lasted a few days, but the cough persisted for weeks...it was a dry, unproductive cough. The kids and I came down with it a couple weeks after that. Fever for a few days and dry persistent and unproductive cough. I remember thinking it was the weirdest cold I've ever had because I didn't have any head or nasal congestion, just that cough that did nothing. The cough lasted a good 6 to 8 weeks, which I also thought was weird as I've never had that before. I went to the Dr. but they just told me a weird virus was going around and they couldn't really do anything. All in all, I would consider the symptoms I had to be mild...but persistent and long lasting.1

My counterpart from work swears that he and his wife both had this virus in January.
I wonder how many folks have already had this... dunno.
or was it just a seasonal flu bug.
.... like most of us, I'm just ready for this whole Covid-19 thing to be over and done.0
