Doing OK today.
One thing I didn't get was the cough but the fever, fatigue, headaches, and general nasty feeling is all there.
Just for background, I'm in almost perfect health. I almost never get sick and haven't had the flu since 2008.
The government should've shut shyt down this weekend and declared an emergency 2 weeks ago. It's literally everywhere now.

Terminated the whole staff so we can collect unemployment until this blows over. No clue breh, never collected unemployment before
shyt. I never get sick but Nov/Dec for about 2 weeks, my ass had the meanest cough, fever, headache, shortness of breath. Literally felt like death at some points. Went to urgent care finally and got a Z pack which helped but now the cough coming back. It make me wonder now if it was just a respiratory infection since they saying there are places that had cases way back in Sep/Oct but due to a lack of testing and officials tryna hide the info, nobody knew.
Quebec to close bars, cinemas and gyms
Quebec says bars, movie theatres, gyms, pools, ski hill, dance studios and other non-essential locations must close while the province ramps up measures to fight the novel coronavirus.
Restaurants will have to limit their capacity to about 50 per cent. Takeouts can remain open.
Sugar shacks (cabane à sucre) must also close.
The 14 new cases in Quebec since Saturday afternoon show that further restrictions are necessary, Premier François Legault said.
“In other countries (the number) was exponential. It could be exponential here,” he said. “What we are doing will save lives.”
Quebecers should only go out to buy bread, go to the pharmacy, take care of an elderly person or go for a walk.
Quebecers should try to remain one metre apart because you could be infected and not know it, he said.
Public health officials are being dispatched to Trudeau airport to instruct travellers on the importance self-isolation and social distancing. Many people have complained that federal border agents aren’t providing enough information about COVID-19 to those arriving in Canada.
Legault said he knows he’s putting restrictions of people’s lives, but says it’s necessary.
People who can work from home, should do so.

I have to give trump credit that instead of doing a travel ban on china, he chose europe, where the population and government are being much more cavalier about this virus
First thing he did was hand out a travel ban to China.....

It's not about how serious people are taking it. I'm going to sound like the biggest a$$hole-- but nature always wins. Resource scarcity will always be a factor. It's impossible to stock and maintain enough supplies for a situation like this-- and impossible to do so once it's already begun to impact the populace in a significant way.
This becomes even more challenging when you have to literally hold the hands of your population like children in constant consideration of things like "rights". The Chinese threw that out the window and treated their people more like "assets" than individuals. Now people who cry about things like authoritarianism are basically complaining that their gov't doesn't exercise that same level of control in this situation.
