Yes! Two direct friends of mine have tested positive. They both lost their sense of smell for a period of time but otherwise said it was no worse for them than the common cold. They’re both late 20s to mid 30s.

An older coworker who’s probably 70 also got the disease. His story was different. He was hospitalized, intubated, and on a ventilator for days. Medically induced coma, all of it. He came very, very close to dying and still isn’t the same.

I have no interest fucking around with this disease.
