Ditchdoc Posted April 17, 2020 Report Share Posted April 17, 2020 The wife and I were on Harmony for New Years along with 8000 or so guests and crew.. About a week after returning home, around January 12th or so, I got sick with a fever for about 3 days and right after, my wife had the same. We shrugged it off. Now I wonder could we have been early COVID survivors. WAAAYTOOO and Ogilthorpe 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lovetocruise2002 Posted April 18, 2020 Report Share Posted April 18, 2020 You are now the third person, on that same sailing, that I heard from, who seems to have come down with the same thing... Ogilthorpe 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Statistics and recent studies are suggesting that this could very well be the case. If recent science is validated, let's hope that cruising can resume soon as a result. ⛴ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RCIfan1912 Posted April 18, 2020 Report Share Posted April 18, 2020 Well if it started or we think it started in China in November then I'd imagine it was here long before we think it did. That would just be my opinion though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ampurp85 Posted April 18, 2020 Report Share Posted April 18, 2020 I can believe a lot of us had it already but didn't suffer grim fates or were incorrectly diagnosed since underlying conditions attribute to death. I traveled to Connecticut and Seattle in Jan for almost 3 weeks on business conferences. The first week of February I had the "flu" and it lasted almost 3 weeks. I was sick for a week, 2 days after I felt great and then a days later I could barely walk. I had bad pains, couldn't eat and had a high fever..it even hurt to breathe. I later read that all of my symptoms can occur with the virus. Then in early March, when things had progressed, one of the lawyers actually got COVID, from another lawyer who happened to be asymptomatic. I stayed home when I was sick in Feb and the other guys went to work, none of us had been on cruises. We did fly American, United and Spirit more than 8 times that month.

RBRSKI Posted April 18, 2020 Report Share Posted April 18, 2020 I totally agree with most everyone's response, I was on the Adventure for NYE and got off with a nagging cough. The A symptomatic aspect of this virus is making it very hard to nail down. RCIfan1912 and Ogilthorpe 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some get mild symptoms, some get serious symptoms, some need to go to the hospital, some don't, don't need to go to the ICU, some die and some have absolutely no symptoms at all and just spread it. Is this not completely insane? SpeedNoodles, Ogilthorpe and WAAAYTOOO 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a neighbor who refuses to believe this is real, tries to get in your space, will not wear a mask, annoying and dangerous. I have COPD and don´t need the aggravation.

ehw51 Posted April 19, 2020 Report Share Posted April 19, 2020 I totally agree. Hopefully he won´t be making any bombastic comments on cruising, we don´t need anymore negativity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
