Thanks, I appreciate it. The bad part was it was a husband & wife that first got it in my family. Both had to be hospitalized and one made it, the other did not. Some family members were on the anti-shut down bandwagon. Then their cousin they grew up with got hospitalized and then passed away. Changed their tune quickly as it made the situation very real.
Unfortunately, there are many families that are in the same boat. Losing loved ones and not able to grieve.
So far, the word on my latest family member that tested positive is a very sore throat, and feeling sick. But not needing hospitalization. So everyone is hoping for the best. His wife is isolated as well but so far is testing negative.
I'm following the news on the vaccine development. I'm glad to see some positive reports. But it will take time. If they go too strong, there can be complications and give the anti-vaxers ammunition. Go too weak and it's not as effective as needed. It's a tough line to balance. But at least its getting closer to finding a vaccine. Worst case, if there isn't a full cure, if it can keep you out of the hospital, it's worth it.
