If you aren’t a senior citizen and think catching COVID is no big deal: You wrong. You do not want to get this.

Since being infected in March, I no longer breathe well.

Never had a respiratory issue in my life. Now I cough and weeze throughout the day and night. I feel like I’m breathing thin, high altitude air all the time. I’m out of breath, I get tired fast and have tightness in the chest. Nothing tragic, but this is not fun.

Now on third different type of inhaler as we try to find solutions. Pulmonary function tests this week revealed damage to airways.

Not typically a fan of policy discussion via personal anecdote, but if you had the virus, share your story.

And to the pERsONal REspoNSibILiTy!trolls: I’ve never smoked, don’t do drugs, was completely healthy prior, and I’m fit AF.

(Trolls: please don’t make me send the gym bro selfie to prove it. I’ll do it, but I don’t want to.)

My issues are absolutely NOTHING compared to the carnage families have suffered across the country, so no empathy, please.

Just Wear A Fucking Mask and demand your government does a better job.
