I have several symptoms of Covid-19 but not severe enough for testing or hospitalization. Unfortunately this symptom criteria can accelerate rapidly to a fatal conclusion. Just saying this because, sadly, it needs to be said....
So most of the people I know who are very sick with the symptoms of COVID-19 haven't even been officially tested because it's so hard to get a test. So when I read the news that U.S. confirmed cases have surpassed China, I know we probably have 3 times as many cases as that.
I found out yesterday I have COVID-19. woke up with a fever, cough; tight chest. I went to the ER; luckily my symptoms are mild enough to self quarantine. It feels like a mild flu w/a tight chest. I have asthma, which is why it may have been easier for me to contract.

Ppl please stay home! I’ve been quarantined for 14 days now and I got sick while staying home. I’m really nervous but he and I have been attacking these symptoms as best we can. No I don’t think it’s covid-19 but I refuse to get someone else sick.
One of my patients’ today started to display Covid-19 symptoms. It’s quite likely that I have been exposed. This is nothing to take lightly. Pending test result. The waiting game has me so tight. Hoping for the best. Stay safe everyone. ??
I now know three people, all under 35, who have been told by ER doctors that most likely they have coronavirus based on the symptoms, but could not be tested because there aren't enough tests. Please take care of yourself. Be safe, Chicago.
I'm here in Chicago. Had a fever, body aches coughing. Lasted only 18 hours. Was able to be tested at U of C on Saturday. Tested positive for COVID-19. I have no symptoms. Feel rather normal. Still a little achy but that's it. Now in 14 day isolation.
