    Great news. Congratulations!
    But just in case, stay in your home and keep monitoring your temperature. This lab doesn't seem very reliable imo.

    I think in Europe you have to take the test 2x within 24 hours to be absolutely sure, even then you could still be infected shortly thereafter.

    Once negative, once positive still counts as positive I am afraid.

    Hope is that the lab was making a mistake with the first test.

    Stay strong.

    Not sure why you'd think I meant workers wearing the PPE while it's being heated.

    Killing the virus is guaranteed if science says said temperature kills the virus.

    This is why it's important for politicians to have qualified experts around them...and to actually listen to them.

    Perhaps a crazy idea -- I've had many in my lifetime -- but how about taking a humidifier and fill it with rubbing alcohol instead of water and have infected people breathe it into their lungs.

    Virus killed on contact !!

    My wife is working with a neurosurgeon today who returned to. Colorado within the last week. He and his wife both have a cough. He's asked multiple times to be tested and they said no. He is on call this weekend and again asked to be tested before taking call. They said no again. So, he's doing surgery.

    He said he's keeping screenshots of every communication he has had with everyone in case something happens.

    He's in the room prepping the patient, coughing up a storm, and unavoidably touching everything in the room.

    Now that he's done with surgery, my wife is in charge of cleaning the room, as the charge. She's wearing her n95 and was just told she cannot have a new one after cleaning that room.

    Brutality? I call this a proper butt spanking. Something they shouldve gotten more of as a child.

    It's sad that our country does not have enough tests unless you are on your deathbed. Positive energy for your wife and all others.

    I heard drinking a gallon of bleach (diluted 50% of course) does wonders for the esophagus

    Mixing ammonia and bleach then breathing it in a confined area will burn the virus out. Ladies conducting hot yoga should try this out too.

    They know what temperature kills the virus. They're not yet sure how the virus sustains in the air in different temperatures.
