CORRECTION TO POST: KNOW YOUR ENEMY!

[rideabike]

So sorry but the original Facebook post was incorrect. I was trying to be helpful as there weren't many symptoms being put out for people to compare with other common flues and colds. In the corrected form, done by the author and screened by this EU web site, the post was then valued to be true. This new virus information may still change. It went from Corona to "novel" Corona with respiratory symptoms very quickly.

Your original post was chock full of inaccuracies. Too many to enumerate. I know you were tying to be helpful, but sometimes you need to think about what you are posting.

"the post was then valued to be true" --- UK fullfact.org is hardly an authoritative source for validating information relevant to COVID-19. The WHO and the US CDC can't even keep their stories straight, so I doubt that fullfact.org, or you or your Chinese grad student with a unknown masters degree who went to school somewhere in China, and who isn't an experienced Ph.d. virologist, know more.

At this time, I would suggest you very seriously rethink offering any further advice or information regarding COVID-19.

So true but we've all done our search now to correct our knowledge and probably know more about the disease than we did before. It was posted as a GUIDELINE to help people avoid panicky responses to someone sneezing (allergy season is starting) or the common cold I, only one I guess, am glad for a guideline even if it moves a little to the right or left. I have to regularly meet with a large group of people and found the article in the corrected form was VERY helpful. If you want blood from me even after admitting I'm not perfect you can try but it won't work. No mercy!! Glad everyone's so perfect that I can trust all the posts on this PD forum and never do my own research.
