I've got a bad case of Fiero Fever and not enough money for the cure.

This chart will help you decide if you have corona virus if you get sick. The one symptom unique to corona is shortness of breath. If you get that, you should try to get tested.

It doesn't really help that this is Hay Fever season.
I have mild allergies, but I usually get several sinus infections every year that, likely as not, go down into my chest and turn into Bronchitis.
Thought that was going to happen a couple of weeks ago, when I got a mild sore throat - actually a sore palate - and sinus stuff, but I took a couple of doses of Sambucol (an Elderberry concoction, that one of my wife's friends swears by.)
I still have the sniffles (which I usually have, this time of year) but it never developed into anything else.

Some medical terminology...

SARS-CoV-2 -- The specific corona virus causing the pandemic.
COVID-19 -- The disease caused by SARS-CoV-2.

I received this from Proff down in Sydney.  "The Corona Virus Explained and What You Should Do"  I think it's a very good video.

Good video.

Lots of fun songs from this.  Perhaps Neil Diamond's Sweet Caroline, "..hands, washing hands/reaching out, don't touch me, I won't touch you..."

Of course, The Coronian Rhapsody.  Also Hey There, Corona.

We are on our third day of 3D printing face shields.  9 printers, running 24/7.  The first units were completed Monday afternoon.  After some tweaks, good units churn out about every 7 hours.  The first batch will go out today.

My uncle, who has been retired for a decade, came out of retirement to help make ventilators (used to make car seats) for Ford.  I think just training, right now.

2 Amazon warehouses are dedicated to making PPE.  A half-finished Amazon building is being used as a warehouse.

The nearby GM facility is gearing up to make ventilators.  To my knowledge, hasn't started, yet.

My wife started making face masks, the first of which will be picked up today.
