Message: [QUOTE="Kitaman, post: 3498940, member: 67"] A close friend of mine works in a group home (homeless). One client felt sick they sent him to the hospital. The hospital did their thing and told the client it was the flu, and sent him back. The client didn't get well so they sent him back, and then they discovered the virus and admitted him. Of course the employees were notified of this and had scheduled tests this week. My friend developed diarrhea over the weekend, and the next day his condition worsened. His wife took him to the hospital and they diagnosed him with the virus. He's old, at risk with major health issues. Until he was diagnosed he traveled with his grandson to the barbershop, and hosted some of his family at his house (all while asymptomatic). I'm sure his wife has it, and the barber is quarantining. Family members were exposed so who knows, and furthermore who knows who they exposed. Another friend works for the State CDF, an employee got sick. The Agency called all co-workers alerting them that the employee was sick and they could be exposed, and to quarantine. They could not release the employee's name (HIPPA is not a good thing these days), but were told to await a follow-up call in a few days if their exposure to the virus is confirmed. He did not receive a call, but was on edge. Just saying be very careful of who you are in contact with, even family members. My neighbors are going in and out of the house like normal. A lady I talked to is having her children come by daily (social) but she can't guarantee her children are complying, my wife's aunt son visits with his friends and goes out into the community. I'm sure we all know similar people or similar stories. The bottom line is paranoia is a virtue right now, and disregard hurting people's feelings. The enemy is hidden, dangerous and deadly and does not discriminate. I'm actually scared and I'm never scared. My friend who is sick will need a miracle to stay alive. Dying nowadays is an isolated thing, with no funeral for families to collectively grieve. (A friend of mine lost her sister last week, no funeral). Please stay safe Yarders, we have more games to watch, enjoy and complain. You guys are helping me get me through this, believe it or not. [/QUOTE]
