This is what it did to a 26-yr old NHLer who's known for being an absolute fitness unit.
Ristolainen experienced several waves of varying symptoms.
"It was kind of hard because how I kind of felt like you didn't know what to expect the next day," he said. "It went better for a few days, so I was kind of feeling, `Hey, maybe it's over now.′ But then after a few good days, it came again with some new weird symptoms."
Ristolainen went into further detail with the Finnish newspaper, saying he experienced such severe chest pains that "it felt like my heart was cracking as I walked up the stairs." He also said there were times he would go to bed not sure if he would wake up the next morning.
Glad you're doing ok now. Do you have any heart/lung checkups planned in the near future?

Yep. Chest x-ray and once I feel even better i'm going to test heart with EKG? I think that's what it was years ago when I got tested. Thanks for asking
I think I saw before you live in a condo as well so BE CAREFUL!

Texas governor just ended mask mandate and all businesses can operate at 100% capacity. Crisis is over! Classic example of knocking all the checkers off the table and declaring victory.

To play devils advocate here it will be interesting to see how this plays out. I'm lucky to be in an area where we get single digit numbers of cases in a day and some days 0. Will we see hospitals at capacity? If not was this whole experiment pointless?

Calm down morons... Yes Greg is jumping the gun to divert attention away from the blackouts and to throw red meat to the base cuz he thinks he can run for president even though he's a wheel chair bound fucktard... But as long as most ppl get the vaccine(which they will) this shit will be under control by the end of the summer...

Apart from people who don’t get vaccinated will be a breeding ground for variants. Moron.

This is correct. I’d say the majority of Texans are anti-mask, anti-covid vaccine idiots. It’ll be tough to get herd immunity with that attitude...

Thanks man, we've been keeping pretty safe, despite the occasional moron encounter. I was playing outdoor pond hockey for a bit but the weather's too warm now, back to staying in most of the time until it's motorcycle season again :toothy:

US, 788 vs 4000. Cases 45,000 vs 200,000+. Texas at a notable low as well. New cases down by 20,000 since Jan. Active cases down by 200,000, deaths down to 69 from 400+ at the same time.

Hopefully the crest of the wave has passed most by and the world sees a decline in numbers. My only concern, well there's two, unreported cases and new strains

Watch this space I guess.

The world has for the most part seen a decline in numbers. Realistically, this is never going to go away. It will become another disease that we just have to deal with. This still doesn't even come close to the deaths or infections from the Spanish Flu in the early 1900s.

Yes, we don't appreciate the numbers but a 1/3 of the world population then, well that's scary...
A virus. Lasting from February 1918 to April 1920, it infected 500 million people – about a third of the world's population at the time
