    Most members of our family-extended family have a type of flu. Fever around 138 comes and goes, headaches, body aches, tired. Similar to the US winter time flu. I think maybe drinking wine has prevented me from catching it, so far.

    Body begins to suffer cell damage and related damage at 108 degrees. Death will certainly occur between 111 & 115. Just for public information clarity. Anything over 103, it is advised by medical standards to seek medical attention.

    We had similar symptoms (plus a persistent cough) starting a few days after our return from Europe early July (probably one of us got infected at Amsterdam airport), and all three of us tested positive for Covid-19.
    We self isolated for two and a half weeks until all three tested negative again. Luckily I bought a bunch of self tests in The Netherlands because they're difficult to get here and expensive (the ones I saw in Lazada are about double the regular price in Europe).
    Nobody got very sick, but the coughing was annoying, especially when it kept you awake at night.

    No rash. Most everyone improving, thankfully.
