-people testing positive with no respiratory symptoms is a big deal
(See link in my stories)
-if this happened to you today, you 100% would NOT be able to get tested
think about that....
Soon, people will be forced to self diagnose, and even self treat. So if you are anything less than EXTREMELY healthy and already “on the path”
P L E A S E
stop smoking now. stop eating fried foods now. stop eating overly processed foods. stop consuming refined sugars, stop consuming dairy products. don’t assuage your fears or your boredom w liters of alcohol, and yes, stop eating meat. google “foods that trigger an inflammatory response in the body”. ****at least do these things NOW**** do what you want after the danger has passed. (But poll your vegan friends; how often are they sick?)
Find a way to manage your stress too, because stress is a component of inflammation. And get some exercise, not to stay thin, but because your lymphatic system doesnt have a pump. and yo I’m not saying I don’t cheat, I do. Doritos are my kryptonite and my head can be a dense ball of stress. but it’s not often or prolonged.
Your best move right now is to do whatever you can to avoid getting sick because the healthcare system in the US and Mexico is utterly tragically overwhelmed. No you might not die but you could be miserable. You could be just well enough to be passed over for treatment.
I beat an autoimmune disease with diet and lifestyle changes. None of this can protect you from Covid-19 but I would bet the farm that the disease visits people like me with a softer fist.
I extend a hug to you and yours. Be safe.
