(6,110 posts)I am 80, did a Caribbean cruise in early march, shopped at Walmart grocery store twice every week, accompanied wife for cancer treatments every 3 weeks. dined at my ocean front sea food restaurants, and at Gym 6 times every week. No problem whatsoever. Because I am healthy due to the exercise.

(6,110 posts)My point is the cruise in early march infected me without serious symptoms and I may have acquired immunity for further serious illness from covid.

(6,110 posts)I must have acquired IMMUNITY by exposure to covid-19 on a jam pack crowded cruise in early March.
Only thing which can explain why I have not gotten sick from covid-19.

(31,261 posts)I believe that your fitness helps, but the virus sickened a 24 year old all star major league pitcher and left him with a heart ailment that he will need professional care for. It has killed muscle-bound young men that had no apparent comorbilities. It sickened an NBA Center and still has him dealing with after-effects.
I hate to be preachy, but I really hope that you are wearing a mask everywhere and social distancing where possible. There is so much that is unknown about this virus, one of which is whether a person can get it more than once.
I really dont know where I stand. I do know that I had headaches in February and I never have headaches. I also had lung congestion that was not normal. I could have just had something not Covid related, though the headaches were totally not something that I ever had. I am perfectly fine now, but I started wearing a face mask in February and have not stopped using one when in public.

(6,110 posts)on a treadmill for 30 minutes set at 23 min/mile and 3 degrees up-slope. My lungs get so much oxygen, the virus has no chance to build a condo in my lungs. It feels so great to have strong legs at age 80, with no balance issues and risk of falls.

(44,973 posts)After not having a virus detected for a 100 days, they found some new cases. They have 90 total new cases from this new wave. If that is a huge outbreak, what does Trump think we are having in the US? We have some states with over 1,000 cases per day.
"New Zealand reported 13 new cases on Tuesday, taking the total number of active cases to 90."
