covid-19

  • I’m 36 and I tested positive for coronavirus. My so-called “moderate” case is brutal.

    ByPaula Pant

    You’ve probably heard people say that if you’re young, healthy and you contract Covid-19, you’re likely to only experience mild or moderate symptoms. I’m 36, a non-smoker, in shape, fit and healthy, with no chronic conditions. No asthma, no diabetes, no cancer, no high blood pressure, no history of any type of organ disease. I’m the poster child, the ideal candidate, of someone who would only experience a “mild or moderate” case.

    My experience of coronavirus was sheer brutal hell. It was the most intense prolonged physical agony I’ve ever felt.

    Here’s what coronavirus feels like.

    ‪My chief overriding mission is to use this platform to do everything in my power to help slow the spread of coronavirus. I’d also like to provide as much guidance as possible in this turbulent bear market and potential recession.

    To do that, I’m introducing a new segment to the podcast: PSA Thursdays.

    In this special weekly segment, I’ll talk about how we can:

    — Flatten the curve
    — Manage our finances in a turbulent market
    — Work from home more productively
    — Help friends and neighbors who are affected by economic stress

    Here’s today’s episode, below. Enjoy from a safe distance six feet away.  🙂

    P.S. Wash your hands! 🙂
