Coronavirus spread 'under the radar' in US major cities since January, researchers say

[diane in sf]

6. I live in the Bay Area and I think I came down with it Dec. 27th. It showed up in this town in the

North Bay around the holidays. It lasted for 3 weeks and I didn’t feel normal until February. No one Im aware of died with this stuff at the time, tho one friend who smokes ended up in the hospital because he couldn’t breathe very well. I normally don’t catch flus and colds. I’m around sick students all the time. At first I thought I had damaged lungs because of the extreme and continued air pollution we experienced during the Camp fire. I had a bronchial infection last year about 4-6 weeks after the Sonoma/Napa fires, which I figured was lung house cleaning. The symptoms of this recent disease were obviously viral. And I’ve never had a lung infection before where my sinuses were completely clear before and during.
