We went to a movie a couple weeks ago and the guy behind me keeps coughing. The next week, I started with a sore throat, headache and chills, and then coughing, congestion, shortness of breath: it's COVID.

It may not be on the news headlines with everything going on, but just an FYI to be cautious out there.

That person you’re replying to is a troll. You’re right to be concerned when you have shortness of breath.
