From Rebecca Brown, contract tracer in Wisconsin:
1. The highest risk is in your household. If someone gets it ISOLATE THE FUCK OUT OF THEM. Seriously, shut them in the basement with a bucket and toss them lunchables and Capri suns 3X a day. Even if they’re asymptomatic. ISOLATE.

2. You probably won’t die. You might feel like you have a cold, the flu or you might be sicker than you’ve ever been. You might get over it in a few days. You might still find it hard to breathe 6 weeks later.
3. If there’s something you could do, some small thing that could stop the spread of this fucker so no more sweet mothers die alone and their children cry to strangers on the phone because they hurt so much, HOW ABOUT IF YOU FUCKING DO IT, EH?
4. These outbreaks right now in WI: La crosse, Green Bay, Madison, Eau Claire-you know what they have in common? Colleges. 10x a day I talk to a 20 something year old who says, “I thought since there are no rules that meant it’s safe.” Thank you WI Republicans!
5. If we are relying on college kids to police themselves we are fucked. They live in dorms & apartments & they’re not good at policing themselves. Even if your kid is, he is a drop in a very contagious bucket. The chance that colleges won’t be online by November is close to zero
6. Don’t go to bars. Strip clubs? Don’t go. Kalahari? (I wouldn’t if I were you) these are all places I’ve discussed with positive cases.
7. Community spread is out there, but you’re much more likely to get it from another persons face than a door handle. You know how we cover our mouths when we sneeze? Why do we do that? PUT ON THE MASK IF YOU ARE INSIDE. PUT ON THE MASK IF YOU ARE OUTSIDE BUT UNABLE TO DISTANCE.
8. Number one symptom? DIARRHEA. Every single person who has one or more symptoms has it. Headache also huge. So many people say “it started like this tickle in my throat.”
9. NOBODY HAS A FUCKING FEVER. I counted <5 cases where someone has a fever. And I think I’ve talked to 100 people. If anyone says they’re taking temperatures to check for COVID? RUN AWAY. 9 times out of 10: no fever. Ask people is they have a raging headache and shit their pants
In conclusion: MASKS, ISOLATION, NO BARS, MASKS, DIARRHEA, MASKS. Thanks for your time.
