5 months ago:

My 1st cousin and her husband are both 73 and in good health -- she is retired cardiac rehab nurse.

He had annoying cough for 2 weeks, PCR test was positive, no treatment other than bed rest. She tested negative -- while sharing a bedroom and bed!!

After his full recovery he tested positive for antibodies, she was negative.

She must have had T-cell immunity, built up from multiple exposures to many corona viruses while working in hospital, and T-cells were able to repel Covid without need to make antibodies.

LOTS of people must be in same situation.

Sadly, one of my best friend's mom died from Covid and she was in her 60s. Her husband weathered it just fine. I don't know all the details, but she might have waited too long to go to the hospital to seek treatment.

A family friend of mine he's also in his 60s and he got it and developed pneumonia and almost died because he waited too long to seek treatment.

Another lady I know had to be put on a vent but got off, and it's likely she waited as well.

From anecdotal evidence it doesn't do much unless you sit alot and develop pneumonia. That's when it gets bad and people go downhill and if they wait too long to seek help it can be deadly. I bet the Covid deaths are actually pneumonia deaths

My grandma's brother died from it as well as my grandma's friend but they were in their late 80s and in poor health.

I know 45 close friends that died because of corona virus 19. They were all old as fuck and sick but this is some serious shit.
