I’ve been around him so going to get tested. Assuming I’m also positive. He’s in his 60’s, no underlying conditions. I’m going to get zinc right now, I’ve already had both of my parents on vitamin D. Anything else I should be aware of? Zinc and D seem to do the trick from what I’ve read, but any suggestions are welcome.

He has a cough and congestion. Feels like a normal cold to him.

Might be. Does he have a fever? Colds often don't. Flu always does.

No fever. However I now have a fever of 99.6. Not high but I never am above 97.6. Don’t feel bad though just a slight headache.

Keep an eye on that! I'm one of those people who is normally sub-normal too. If the fever's the only thing, just watch it. remember, it really is less than the "regular" flue in terms of feeling poorly, and there are meds to treat it! Didn't Trump say he took Vitamin D (D3 I think), zinc supplements (a biggie) and fluids. Take care of yourself!

Now my temp is back to normal. 97.9 last night and 96.9 this morning. Mom is also negative and dad has a little muscle ache and congestion but otherwise okay. Sooo maybe he is a false positive.
