From my (albeit limited) experience, wait times are not long. They appear long, but I have a feeling the actual wait time is inflated because they run out of queue space. My boyfriend and I rope dropped HS and MK and rode Pirates, BTMR, HM, 7DMT, Pooh, Space, MMRR, TSM, TOT, RNRC, Star Tours, Smugglers Run, Rise, and Slinky. Longest we waited was about 45 minutes for MMRR.
Wow, real wake up call here for me. Being in CA, anyone can get a test at anytime, I didn't realize that wasn't the case in so many other places. (not just your situation, I have been reading of others as well from other states) I know the country still lacks in terms of testing but I didn't realize prioritization of tests was still so prominent.
It isn't out of the realm of possibility that, if he is asymptomatic, there was a false positive test. They do happen.
Lack of taste and smell is a pretty big indicator that it‘s not a false positive, but anything is possible.
I had the flu a few years ago (when I was in my 30's) and it put me completely out of commission for a week. I could barely get out of bed or stay awake for more than a few minutes at a time. Enough with this "most brutal virus" stuff. That was the only time in my life I was that sick. It just happened to be the flu. For somebody else it happens to be COVID-19.
I didn't see that until after I posted. But yes, it's most likely a true positive.
I'm not sure you understand the differences between the Flu and Covid. Since you didn't have Covid, how can you comment on its severity? I have had 2 close with it, one was mild case and he was back at it within 4 days, the other was hospitalized. This is NOT the flu for the last time. It was the most brutal virus for him, and he had the flu several times.
There are countless asymptomatic and mild cases that were never discovered, especially early on. This fact is not disputed by any expert. The only unknown is how many times to multiply the reported cases to get actual cases. The estimates are as much as ten times or more.
I'm a very ignorant person and I don't understand that this is not the flu. My point went completely over your head. People keep using this argument that COVID is the worst virus ever because some people have the worst illness they ever had from it. I've had the flu more than once in my life. One time it was the most ill I've ever been. The other times it was no big deal.
A meta-analysis of 79 studies published just a few days ago estimates that 20% of cases are asymptomatic. In a smaller set of seven studies looking at more wide-ranging population tests, they found the number to be 31%.
I think we all get your point. You don’t think Covid is a big deal and you think a lot of people are overreacting. Point made. No need to keep posting it over and over and over.
That’s not what I got from his previous posts. I just got that people react differently to Covid, which is typical for a virus. It’s not the same experience for all. In addition, someone could have had a very bad experience to the flu while had a easy time with Covid. Also, its highly contagious and new so many people get it. This has caused a ton of spread. But it isn’t a death sentence for everyone who does get it. Unless I’m mistaken. He can correct me.
I thought we were beyond the “it’s just the flu“ comments but carry on. I can’t be bothered having the same tired discussion so I’ll refrain from commenting further.
Who said, it’s just the flu? Some people see the word “flu” in a post and immediately get defensive.
But that's not what the poster said. Is it possible you saw the word "flu" and just stopped reading?
When you start comparing how you felt during mild cases of the flu and extreme cases of the flu, in a post about covid, I take it as a comparison.. or it would never have been mentioned.
