2. Fear is my friend and the reason I am still asymptomatic
Wed Apr 22, 2020, 10:29 PM
Apr 2020

Because I fear this virus destroying my 80 year old lungs, I never touch any opening in my body without first washing hands with soap for 20 seconds.
I got back from a fully sold out cruise on Feb 29th, been to grocery stores many times, been to cancer hospital with wife twice, been to bank, fill gas in our 2 cars (most risky place because the nozzle was touched by dozens of people before me), and picked up takeout food several times. But by washing hands before touching any of the 9 body openings, still no symptoms of covid-19.

I miss our sub-division's gym, it is closed until further notice. So I am doing my mile and half walk first thing every morning on our private roads inside the sub-division..
