I'm a statistic now

At the beginning of the month I wasn't feeling well. Temperature was going up and down and I was having trouble getting a deep breath. I went to the ER and a chest x-ray showed pneumonia in my right lung. I was officially diagnosed with COVID-pneumonia. A swab was taken and my test was negative for COVID. I am certain that my pneumonia was caused by the cloth masks I was wearing. Unfortunately that doesn't fit with the current narrative.

    I was told to isolate for 10 days from the onset of symptoms regardless of what the test results were. I agreed cause I wanted to be careful. The ER doctor said these tests aren't the most reliable. I just don't want to be counted as a positive case if I'm negative. I also wonder why we are testing at all anymore.

    Ask to see the diagnosis submitted to the "State" Department of Public Health. I'll bet you will be listed as Covid - pneumonia despite the negative test. But then, are the tests valid in the first place?

    I have been telling as many people as I can. Almost all seemed shocked that putting a cloth on your face all day could cause any ill health affects.

    Yep, and you are also one of the many cases which wasn't a true Covid case as well, if they diagnoses you with Covid-pneumonia.
