Adam Perry, hot gay Broadway actor and dancer, on suffering from symptoms of COVID-19 four months after being diagnosed:
“It’s quite terrifying to be honest. There’s nothing like the feeling of not being able to breathe. It’s not like getting the flu or a cold virus, where you start getting better after a few days, and your trajectory is on the way up. With this thing, I would feel better for a few days, and then it would just come and smack me again. In the very beginning, I had two days of symptoms, and then I felt like a million bucks for three days, so I thought I was off the hook, I thought I had beat it, but then it came back with a vengeance. I’ve been doing eight shows a week for 15, 20 years. I’ve been doing eight-minute tap dance numbers. My lungs have always been great. But now the capacity is not the same, and I’m just praying daily that they’ll get back to normal and I’ll be able to do those things again. I cried watching the news … Cases are spiking. The president makes jokes about coronavirus. People shame others for wearing masks. The country is making it a partisan issue. It’s not a partisan issue, it’s a human issue, we have to take care of each other. It really is about teamwork with this thing, and we all have to come together, wear a mask, socially distance for as long as we can until there’s a vaccine, because this thing has an infinite variable of outcomes for people. There’s short term, long term, and we just don’t know, so it’s just really important that people take care of each other, and I just really don’t want other people to have to experience what I experienced.”
From the mouth of a victim … listen.

ReplyDeletetake care, xoxo :-)
Peter Navarro is partly right in that November saw coronavirus on its first outing. In November my niece on a visit to Japan where she met a Chinese girl on holiday. Once home my niece had some flu-like symptoms but Christmas saw my sister-in-law in A&E with symptoms we now know to be those of Covid-19. She was not alone, there were several people there with the same symptoms and confusing the nurses (one of whom is a friend of mine) and doctors. But created by China? I know Xi is a tyrant who cares nothing for those he rules over, but China is buying up the world, it doesn't need to conquer by disease. Apart from anything else, there is a miniscule possibility of Xi getting Covid-19 but I would wager that he wouldn't be prepared to risk even a 0.0001% chance.
ReplyDeleteanderson & bubba & adam - PREACH!
ReplyDeletethe rest of the asshats can STFU and die of COVID-19!
Anderson always delivers a point so smoothly...
ReplyDeleteAs for the GOP propaganda machine, it's incredible how they try to spin everything. Blame, deflection, lies. Cheeto did allow them to become the party of con men.
Bubba has so much spirit. I would not even WORK for NASCAR, let alone be the only black driver. They did show up for him though.
Adam is right. COVID-19 is insidious and dangerous. Not only for what it does when it shows up but because of what it does when it goes away. The damage done to the body is sometimes irreparable. That's what scares me most about it...
XOXO
I love how Anderson Cooper pulls apart everything Trump says, and refutes it. Great post.
ReplyDeleteI'm going to be shallow, Bobulah, because I have to be. Adam Perry is FINE! I can't with the serious today.
ReplyDeleteThings are degenerating daily in the USA.
ReplyDeleteCarlson, Ingraham, Kennedy, and the Idiot Jerk are a dying breed thanks to evolution, something none of them believe in.

ReplyDeleteOh Bob, I am so furious about clemency by Agent Orange for another one of all the president's thugmen Roger Stone I almost didn't read your post tonight. Thank goodness I did - you had a bevy of beauts in yours today - honest to God, you are a voice of necessary reason in the midst of a superfund of stupidity.
Bravo, my friend!
Onward.
