Yeah, I had something in Feb that started with a fever + night sweats for 2 days followed by a sore throat so bad that my left jaw and neck hurt for a week. Also, working out, my lungs felt super tight and constrained. I thought I had cancer or something bad... but it slowly went away and then I read about this corona thing breaking out in China. I was damn, that sounds like what I had. I live in a university town... lots of Chinese students and visitors. So it seemed reasonable. Also, I was thinking, if it hits someone as physically fit as me this hard... this is gonna be a real shit show.

Sore throat isn't a symptom. That sounds like streptococcus dude. Source: I get it literally every year.

But I do think it's already been through our population.

I always got it when I was drinking a lot and made out with a girl. Weeks of pure hell. Girls literally do have cooties.

Not so fast slick. The sore throat is because of the coughing. Sore throat from strep is from swollen tonsils.

I don't have tonsils
