Just want to post that my wife (age 45) got COVID 7 days ago. I am 61yo and both of us have not been VACCINATED. A month ago I started taking zinc and honey every day to try to boost my immune system. My wife chose not to. My wife felt really bad. She took cold and flu medicine and now after 7 days doing much better. During the 7 days I was with her in the same room and slept in the same bed and neither ever had a mask on. Just let you know I am 100% COVID free. I never got sick.

It’s weird only one person getting sick. That’s not how virus’ work. I was on family vacation south, 40 people, one house. Kids complained first, then some of the adults. Weird thing was that the older generation (65-97) never got sick. They were the only ones who didn’t swim. Had me wondering if it’s something in the water?
I once worked as a "microscopist"; analyzing various things. One day samples came in from a hot tub. It was full of paramecium and other things. The human skin shed by people in hot tubs is a great food source for all sorts of things if the chlorine level isn't high enough. The high temps of hot tubs makes it difficult to keep the chlorine level high enough to kill the off. After that (more than 30 years ago), I never go in public hot tubs.
Gross! I battle my pool everyday!
Yeah, pools are great virus carriers.
Absolutely! E. coli, crypto, norovirus... once it’s contaminated it can become a breeding ground.
Chlorine, for pools.
