I remember having a ton of congestion.  I was blowing my nose almost nonstop.  I didn't have particular issues breathing.  I did cough quite a bit, I thought I had bronchitis, which I have had a few times before, along with a bad cold.

I have not been sick since other than that brief reaction to the shingles vaccine.  In France, other than the airplane and CDG, I didn't have much exposure to people.  We got a rental car and drove straight to our daughter's house.  The plane was about half full as I recall, it being January.  Not many folks go to France in January.

The weather there is pretty icky in winter.

Air travel is enough to do it. Or, was enough is what I should probably say. It's pretty safe now.

1. Seems that some of "us" have natural immunity.

2. The public needs to take care of itself. Choose to protect yourself, or choose to not protect yourself. Natural selection is natural.
So you're going to continue down that path and toss out all medicines, processed foods, vehicles, machinery, air-conditioning, and plastic, right?

Natural selection would continue even with modern conveniences.

I still don't really understand what we should be doing differently NOW to manage the virus.  The treatments of acute cases appear to be having better outcomes.  The elderly are mostly being isolated.  Do we need another economic shut down now?

Absolutely no to another shutdown. That only works for people who work for government.

Georgia appears to be leveling off right now in all respects.  Reported new cases is down from around 3700 in June to around 1200 now, which is a fairly substantial drop of course.  Related factors are also down, deaths are running around 40 per day.

There is no trend at the moment I can see.  The state is quasi-open with the usual safeguards and no large gatherings, and has been for months now.

I still am not able to explain that drop in new cases without invoking some latent resistance theory.

Anyone care to offer what the country should be doing NOW on this topic (that is not being done)?

I doubt there's any straw left after you guys' posts on this topic.  There's going to be a haybale shortages because of all of the strawmen you've conjured.

I’m happy to report that my mom is home from the hospital. She was in there for 3-4 days.  She received REMDISVR and plasma. She’s resting at home and is on supplemental oxygen for a week or two while she recovers.

I’m sad to report that my dad is losing his battle with Covid. He’s been on the ventilator since last Monday and he’s getting weaker by the day. As I stated he was already in poor health before this started so it’s not surprising. Even if he somehow beats the virus I’m afraid the effects of being hospitalized for weeks will weaken him enough that he never really recovers enough to make it home.
Sorry to hear about your dad, man.
