You know I was asking myself if my wife or me suddenly got flu symptoms, what would we do. Do we go to the hospital? Do we stay home? How are we to know if we have the virus? How will we get medicine? A lot of questions and no answers. They say to self quarantine but where and how would we get the needed medicine. You'll still need meds for a flu, even if it's not the Virus, right?

I have seen several Skype interviews of people who have tested positive and are in quarantine (all appear normal) and not one time has the "media" member asking the questions asked, "What type of medications have you been taking?" Amazing to me. That would be the first question I would ask. Does Tylenol work better than Ibuprofen for the fever? Nothing.

Not reading the whole thread (and not crediting this for being anything but an internet rumor), but my spouse heard something saying Ibuprofen could aggravate the virus. So if you've got it, dig around and see if you can find information about that.
