If you get it you get it, there is nothing you can do to make it better and only those suffering severe symptoms should go to the hospital as to not overcrowd them. Being tested and it being negative also creates a false sense of security. As I mentioned, it only tested one point in time and since then you easily could be infected. That false sense of security could lead to riskier behavior like visiting elderly family members.
People should be doing the exact same things right now if they have it or if they don't. In reality everyone should just assume they have it because the numbers of actual infected is probably in the millions at this point.
I kinda laugh at the idea people shouldn’t come to the ER unless they have severe symptoms so they don’t over burden them.
You’re right, obviously. But, people misuse the ER every day. For example a 1 mm laceration.
1 f’n millimeter.
