One still has the hacking cough, over 12 weeks now, x-ray not showing anything.

Has it been circling longer than we are lead to believe I wonder, could be coincided though [emoji848]

Apparently those infected and classified as mild (survivors) have a reduction >30% of lung damage and capacity (long-term.) BTW, NPR has a great article about what ‘mild’ classification means: 2-weeks of flu-like symptoms, the works.

Rumor is that this has been circulating longer than documented and why CCP is asking the US for proof and transparency that this didn’t come from US military. Apparently there was a military exercise called World Games or something along those lines in Asia in November.
