My nephews wife, who is a professor of pharmacology at Auburn University, and who is pregnant, is positive for COVID19.
And my dear youngest brother, who is a medical doctor treating COVID19 patients in Atlanta, is sick .. presumptively with COVID19.

By the end of the year, I bet most of America will have had to deal with the virus, either personally, or among their families and friends.

So sorry this has hit your family as well.

The disease hit home for me today today - my Mom was sent to the emergency room today with strong covid symptoms with most worrying being the rapid dementia-like symptoms.
Damn this disease and all the fucking republican governors that have 'opened up' their states. My Mom is in South Carolina.
