Message: [QUOTE="goodroc, post: 3657537, member: 20"] Selfishly I hope the entire team has Tested positive and of course recover quickly with no lasting effects to eliminate the risks so we can restart with zero fear of another pause and cancellations. I don't believe there is clear guidance for someone that has tested positive and recovered. Although I have heard of some getting COVID 2x I'm not sure anyone knows if that is true as the initial diagnosis might have been a false positive. They are giving a vaccine which I assume that exposure would not require quarantine but I am not sure as I have not read anything that has started that. If in fact, that is the case then a positive case with recovery should be handled in the same way I would assume. From what I know about vaccines in simple terms you're injected with the virus along with some other items that greatly reduce the likelihood of getting COVID or the virus the vaccine is targeting or if you do get it the virus that symptoms and risks are much less severe. A positive diagnosis I would assume provides more protection than any vaccine although I'm not a doctor and I'm simply speculating and basing this on similar viruses such as the flu and flu vaccine. If a doctor or someone with more knowledge than I can provide feedback on my thoughts above it would be appreciated. I was diagnosed positive around 4 weeks ago. After 1 day with 101 fever and 18 hours of almost continuous sleep, I did not have any symptoms after The initial 24 hours other than being tired but I suspect being in bed or sitting in a chair in a room with no human contact was as much of a factor as COVID was. I run a min of 3m 5 days a week. After 5 days I put I a medical-grade mask and drove to an area with no one within 500 yds and walked 3 miles. My energy level increased immediately after to The point I was going nuts with 5 more days remaining, I was out of quarantine after 10 days and took another week off from running as I was told getting heart rate elevated is strongly discouraged and was prohibited by my doctor which I followed. I did walk daily. It has been difficult to get back to the shape I was in pre COVID but I am 90% back and I suspect 3 full weeks without any cardio I would have similar challenges getting back into my same shape pre-covid even without having the virus. I'm 52 and I have found extended breaks ( 3 weeks or more) which I have had twice or so over the last 5 years I experienced very similar challenges getting back as it's incredible how quickly you lose your cardio shape as well as my motivation possibly due to the ”runners high” withdrawal has passed. My fear of stopping my work out scheduled routine And the challenges of getting back into shape has provided a lot of motivation and I believe it's why I have been so disciplined with my workouts. FYI up until I began working out around 7 years ago I rarely walked into a gym and never worked out ever. My only exercise has always come from playing sports basketball, ”softball” ( in my 40s) paddle boarding, easy hikes ext.and those opportunities become reduced greatly as you age. Sorry if i bored anyone with my story but if you are in your 30s or 40s and not currently working out regularly I can not stress enough the change it creates with almost every aspect of your health possibly the most important being mental health and stress relief reduction, energy levels, confidence ( and likely helps fight of viruses especially those that are considered respiratory) Back the Quarantine rules in NY It's incredible that if you test positive you need to quarantine for 10 days as long as you are symptom-free for anywhere for 24 to 72 hours before the 10th day. ( things have changed so often don't recall if it's 24 or 72). No additional test is needed just symptom free with specific stress on no fever for ” x” hours without the use of l fever-reducing medication. ( I am referring to the CDC reducing guidlines not tyrant Cuomo. Do we have special doctors in Ny that the Cdc does not have access too or is this political with accusations that President Trump Controls CDC recommendations even though Thr while house door will kick him in the as in approx 32 days. If that is the case then everyone that works at The CDC with any influence or knowledge of a direction from the white house and changed guidance Based on any white house threat, not science should be fired immediately What I find most amazing. My wife and children needed to quarantine for 14 days even though they had taken 3 tests over the 14 days. It's almost certain I was exposed for at least 2 or 3 days before I had any symptoms but their quarantine starts at the onset of symptoms. This was before the CDC changed the guiidlines again where you can test out after 7 days but we live in NY so not sure what they would have done. They are not high profile basketball players with the public and media watching you and A 14-day quarantine when you feel perfectly fine is tremendously difficult. When the CDC has guidance that cuts the quarantine to 7 days it makes it almost impossible to follow. Is there any science that backs up that someone can develop COVID 14 days after exposure? It's possible but I doing believe that is the case. They did not have to make that decision and would they have visited my parents or my inlaws who are both in their mid to late 70s or anyone high rusk. Of course not but being under house arrest when the CDC & other states follow a different protocol is insanity. [/QUOTE]
