We all have varying opinions about the impact of this, the numbers, etc. We will all never agree with each other. But we can all keep it civil.

Thanks!

Who knows if the results are valid, but...
Yeah some of the negative tests I’ve heard of are stories like yours.

Hmmm. Not good. I've known a few people that have been tested and gotten their results in a day or two max. Hopefully they can get caught up on their backlog.

I guess those are the National ones.

The fact is there isn't any facility that was built for nor prepared to do testing on a mass scale like this. Unfortunately as more people get tested it could impact turnaround times. They are saying a test that will provide results in minutes will be ready to go this week or next. That will help a lot.

Yeah, I don't have any issue owning that (and I alluded to it in my post).


Good to see OTWP is still kicking. Hang in there man, sounds like you should be on the way up at least.

Yep.

They’ve had to pump these out so fast that they aren’t as accurate as they’re wild like though. All of these tests are that way though

So why do we really need to send all this military in that direction?

The nebulizer increases aerosolization, which means more respiratory droplets, which means more airborne pathogens.

Does it make the person more contagious? Like when I got sick in late January and I tested negative for Flu A and B, they were both negative, my doctor tested me for RSV and I was negative for that as well. My breathing was so bad that he treated me for RSV the nebulizer being part of that regiment including Prednisone and antibiotics. Well I always take a treatment at lunch time. The week after I went back to work a couple of the people I worked with started getting sick too. One ended up being treated for Pneumonia and the other was treated for the flu.
I am wondering if I am the reason for that now.

Albuterol is a short acting beta agonist. The beta receptors in the lungs relax, but it causes an increase in cardiac contractility and heart rate. Tachycardia is common after use, as is tremor and anxiety.

IIRC It spreads it farther and allows it to stay suspended in the air for longer. IIRC that’s how it makes you more contagious

your cilia and linings in your lungs are inflamed from the coughing. I’m assuming the inhaler is albuterol, correct? You will get use to the drug after a couple of times. Hear that a lot from first time users, this albuterol doesn’t help or makes it worse.

That’s still the best non-invasive and or non-dangerous drug we have for inflammation in the lungs. It’s a proven drug for over 30+ years. When you take the hit, breathe in deep and hold it for 10 seconds. Helps bypass the upper parts of the lungs that has to be raw by now and get down into the alveoli area of the lungs. When you get those alveoli popping open, your going to feel a lot better.

rescue inhalers make you more contagious? Who said that BS?
