Anybody who attended the Big 10's been tested from this this board or lurking boards?

Not me. I do, however, work with a largely elderly patient population and probably have higher risk of exposure than some (pre- and post-Big Tens).
 
Not me. Although Mrspa and I have been discussing the fact we were sitting there with 7000 people for two days. No symptoms, yet. Knock on wood.
 
Unfortunately me and family are down with flu. Not tested just self quarantined. Son went to hospital and tested negative for strep. Miserable but seems like garden variety fkn flu.
 
just asking?
I'm still feeling ok but the odds of someone having it in the RAC with 6200 people in attendance is probably pretty high. I commented to the guy next to me on the bus that I never witnessed guys being so vigilant about washing their hands in the restroom. Those two hand dryers were going non-stop!

If someone infected touched the dryers then the dryers probably ensured maximum spread. I never use those things

When I take a piss in a public bathroom, the only things my hands touch are my zipper, pants and penis. No door handles either.

It's funny. A local deli sometimes puts out samples. When they do, they have metal tongs so folks don't touch the food with their hands. Meanwhile, every person is touching the tongs. :rolleyes:

Still healthy here.

The lines to the sinks were longer than the lines to get into the restrooms.

Matter, I generally like your posts. This one no.

Here about 20 yrs ago the wife and I went to a semi-local truck stop restaurant who had a small buffet. In clear view of God and everyone, this guy gets up from his seat, walks up to the buffet, cracks open a capsule of something and sprinkles the contents into the mashed potatoes, and walks out the door.

We immediately informed the server, but they couldnt track the dude down. Not being entirely sure they even believed us,we didnt leave until we personally watched them throw the potatoes out. Not really much condolence, they shoulda shut down and emptied and sterilized the entire buffet.

Anyway, there some real sicko’s out there.

You haven’t trained your goods to take themselves out and put themselves back? Rookie.
 
Saturday of Big Tens was in Atlantic City for NJ High School States. Boardwalk Hall was crowded and casinos were all
Packed with people touching all the slots! Many of those same people drove up to Bigs on Sunday.
So far feel fine. 14 day incubation. Hope I am good!

My main concern was I sat in section 313 row E. It has recently been quoted that the virus could live on a hard surface for a few days. I must admit that I used those hand rails quite extensively to climb to my seat. Felt like I was climbing a ladder. In hindsight, wished I wore gloves.

and this virus lives the longest on metal surfaces (other than copper, which is the shortest).
 
Sheww.... had a scare but now thrilled to say I'm fine! Testing confirmed I don't have the virus...

This is why I never wash my hands after I go the bathroom, I do before but basically I am touching the cleanest part of my body. Every morning if I take 20 min in the shower 19 are spent scrubbing that one body part

Reminds me of the joke about the restaurant that hired the efficiency consultant to make their waiters more efficient. A customer dropped a spoon and the waiter was right there with a new one from his pocket, and explained “the consultants notice that spoons are dropped 50% more often then other utensils, so we always carry one with us as a quick replacement - this saves us on average 4 minutes per shift”. While the waiter was explaining this, the customer noticed a string hanging out of his fly zipper. When asked, the waiter said “we use the string to pull out our penis when we pee so we don’t have to touch anything with our hands, saving 30 seconds of hand washing each visit, and 2-3 minutes per shift”. Then the customer asked “how to you put your penis back in?”. The waiter replied quietly, “well, I use the spoon”.
 
I had a bug last week. Bit of a sore throat, sneezing, some aches, but no fever and no coughing. After 24 hours of serious consideration, I figured it to be a common cold. Now my wife has it and she's telling me that people tested positive with the same symptoms.... I feel like we're in a Twilight Zone episode......

It kind of make you wonder just how severe this thing really is if the people testing positive have symptoms resembling a minor cold.

At the beginning of February I out of nowhere developed a cough and would wheeze whenever I breathed in deeply. Took the rest of the week off and returned the following Monday. Never developed a fever. Now I wonder if I might have unknowingly contracted it. I work on a military base where we had people traveling all over the world regularly. Not just the military and civilian employees, but also foreign born dependents that travel to see their families. One of my team member’s spouse is from Korea and another’s spouse lives in Vancouver Canada and he travels there often to visit.
