Fallen out of date with the news.

How is everyone here doing? Any tested positive?

I am lucky enough to be a keyworker so I am not feeling the lockdown, and I have always practiced social distancing in my free time so my life has been largely unchanged, really.

Everything is still very much fine over here. Provided the case numbers don't increase we might be able to fully open up in June, with a few ground rules in place. People are happy and praise the administration that did a great job to contain things. How are things in your country?

I think I contracted the infection before the lockdown early March. Developed a mean sore throat, back pain and hip pain 10 days after a trip to London, which is a hot spot for corona. No cough or fever though. It wasn't the usual flu-like symptoms and didn't feel like the common cold either, but I still felt sick and had a surprising diarrhea which I couldn't pin down to food poisoning because I am very careful with what I eat and how I prepare. I am 90% convinced it was COVID19 but I won't know for sure until antibody testing becomes the norm.
