John Walters has COVID

[CyHans]

I still support having fans but I think we gotta take recommendations serious. I think some of us, myself included have gotten lax about starting to do more social things like gathering with friends and not following social distancing recommendations. Fortuantely those that I personally know that have tested positive have all been similar to having a cold but I also know of some that have passed so thinking of JW and others this morning.

i think you meant to type pepsi

Double dose of Pepsi daily is below average for Americans isnt it?

I don't drink a lot of soda, but I had a Pepsi at work the other day with a bologna sandwich and some Fritos and it was amazing.

Then I looked at the bottle and saw it had 66 grams of sugar. That reminded me of why I rarely touch the stuff.

My brother-in-law and his family got COVID-19 about two months ago. His doctor told him to take Pepcid AC also because of the terrible gas, stomach, taste/smell, etc. issues that he was having as some of the symptoms. He took it and those symptoms were fine the next day. The doctor also prescribed some other drugs so that some of his and his family's symptoms were over in 5-6 days. Other symptoms such as fatigue lasted for a month. They all tested negative after a couple of weeks.

Good to hear he recovered. My friend is also one of those doctors that like to prescribe HCQ. Of course with all the other stuff he uses, it is probably pretty hard to tell what is actually working. He had everyone he treated Covid free in 4 days, so I am going to trust his plan if I get it. Got to better than go home and come back if you can't breath.

This is the pretty standard treatment cocktail right now for those not requiring hospitalization. Zithromycin (Z-pack) is sometimes included to prevent/treat secondary infections.

Yep, I am not sure if you can get the z-pack at home. My Father in Law was sick and we told him to start this regiment and he got better. Got a negative test, so he stopped, ended up in the hospital later with a positive test, so we are assuming the first test was a false negative.

I am surprised they aren't making a bigger deal about folks boosting their immune system overall. Vitamin D/sunlight is huge. In general, the amount of time we spend on devices and blue light are a detriment to your immune system as well. Along with the usual eat well, get enough sleep and so forth.

Little known fact: Training the fascial system plays a huge role in stress response and immune function. Definitely something that doesn't get enough run in helping folks be healthier.

Yes, everyone should be taking a multi-vitimin and getting as much sunlight as they can. In most instances your immune system will determine how bad a case you have. There are certain groups that are very vulnerable, especially obese individuals.

Are you saying we should trust Iowans? Is that working? I've lost track.

You struggle with reading comprehension, don’t you?

No. I was saying that we should trust Cyclones, at Cyclone games, with effective protocols in place at Jack Trice that are actually enforced.

Clearly, none of that is the case for the average Iowans out there “minding their own business” in most public places. Because there are people out there peddling plausible disinformation.

You eat Bologna? That is the biggest travesty here. I rarely drink pop either if I do its Coke or Dr. Pepper.

I had a bologna sandwich a few weeks ago. Used to eat it all the time when I was a kid growing up, hadn’t had any again in decades.

It was great. Then, after that one package I was done for another thirty or forty years.

Beef only, usually Boar's Head. I have always loved it. I still even eat Spam on occasion. I especially love the Spam sandwich at High Life and to make it even more gross I put mustard on it.

What can you do, man?

Now you and Macloney went and did it! Because of your posts I now have bologna sandwich stuck in my mind. I haven't had one since I was a kid. Crap, now I've got to go and buy some Boar's Head Beef Bologna.

Oh ya I ate it as a kid as well. Haven't had in a least 20 years.

Hope he stays feeling well.

I've had my first couple of people get it this week too.

The way this thing is spreading we will be very lucky to get through the rest of the season.

I have 5 employees that work for my department. We are down to 2 until the 11th.

No hospitalization is required for the Z pack. It’s a commonly prescribed broad spectrum antibiotic. You usually get it in a bubble pack where you take 7 doses the first day, 6 the second, 5 the third, and so on. It remains effective for 2 weeks + .

Same....probably some of the goodness is the nostalgia, lol. I used to love them with lettuce...or the old fried on toast.

Are the benefits of drinking tonic water enhanced if you add in gin? A friend wants to know! If so, my friend is in good shape!

Gin is a fluid. And an antiseptic.

Hey this may be a serious issue guys. I could be wrong but wasn’t the last FB game Blum did PxP for the cyclones.tv..... gulp.... drake game? If that checks out, someone better call CW or someone else right freaking now and someone else go slash the tires of Blums car so he can’t get to the stadium. We can’t do that again. Sorry Blum. I know you understand.

I warned you all

Just a double secret agent taking down chomos.
