@John Afella I have suffered from a still undiagnosed condition for about 25 years, that causes bouts of extreme nausea, and other symptoms, some of which are similar to a flu. I was so sick that I almost went to the hospital a few times, but I did not. I have not been tested, so I simply can not be sure, so I am continuing to self-isolate just in case. I did not say that I had the coronavirus in my previous statement. I hope that clears things up for you. Have a great day :)
