Sounds perfectly reasonable. Go with it.

That mostly makes sense. I would still plan to self-quarantine as much as possible though, for two reasons: 1) if you should turn out to be positive, well, obviously you'll want to avoid giving it to others. 2) If you both don't have coronavirus, you do have something else and are probably immune-compromised. So you don't want to risk encountering the virus in your current compromised state. Still sending healing thoughts your way!!

I think I'd sit tight till you get the news directly. Who knows how often that site is being updated?

It gets more complicated - one of my nieghbors (who is in healthcare) just messaged me that she heard this morning that it’s taking up to 5 days to get results. So now I’m not even sure what to think. What a disaster.

The site is updated every day at 5pm. But now I’m not sure how long it takes for results. (As per my post above).

Does This Avatar Make My Butt Look Big? Minor Deity ![]() |
Here's a question: Does it matter whether it is or is not corona? I'm feeling like I'd rather not bother to get tested because there's nothing I would do differently if the test came back positive. I wouldn't show up at a hospital unless I started showing worrisome symptoms. Am I wrong? | |||

I'm leaning with Cindy on this one. Would knowing change your treatment plan? You're already hunkering down. Wear a mask if you go out to avoid spreading whatever you have to others. I think the one reason to know is that if you got it and recovered, you are, theoretically, now immune.

It’s not so much about treatment. I don’t want to infect anybody else. My horse is at a stable where the trainer is immunocompromised, If I have Coronavirus, I’m not going to go out there until I’m not carrying it anymore. If I just have a run of the mill cold, I’m not as worried.

So yes, I guess on Sunday if I haven’t heard, I will go with a mask and gloves and hold my horse for the farrier(if I cant find anybody else to do it) I don’t know - this is all so crazy. ![]()

Really? I had heard that one does not develop immunity and can get it again... Things are shutting down quickly here...schools, activities etc. food stores running out of food before noon... Lined up at 7am / no parking, no carriages, no toiletries, no food by 9 No confirmed because no tests available

I doubt those tales are true and are probably more the result of false positive tests. If you didn't develop antibodies you would not recover.

What we know about immunity.

Your farrier will then bring it to me. I'm on his schedule Monday morning.

But even before I read that, I think you must act "as if" until you get a confirmed negative. Reason: I doubt the state is prompt about anything. And I think you will definitely know before they post anything on the web site.

If you know you are positive, aren’t you going to extra vigilant not to expose others, including in your own home. Jf
