Anyone think they had the Wuhan Red Death?

I was working (somewhere?) (mid-south, I think) and was hundreds of feet up in the air, in a location surrounded by wooded hills.  I noticed, over a hill, what must have been a forest fire,  for all the smoke.  Then I guess they put it out pretty quick.

Later,  I saw another smoke-out,  then in a different place, another.  It was brutally hot and dry and I thought bush-fires.

Then,  very close by,  this whole pine tree just, literally, exploded in a pollen bomb.  The whole tree.  Then another.  Then another.

I don't know if that's the way these trees usually do it,  but I suspect the heat.  And some kind of chain-reaction.  Or the trees heated up to the right temp and made all the cones blow at the same time.

It's a botanical circle-jerk.

Mountain Cedar. Quite impressive to watch the trees pollinate, but that crap will repaint your car, roof and trim for you. Makes for a tough time for sensitive people. That is usually in late winter around here. Right now it is just the oaks, pecans and usual suspects making it hard to breathe.

I guess you have never been in the south.  It gets so bad you can't see through the car windows after it sits about 1 day.. 

I have been in the South before but apparently not at the right time.  I spent many days at the Panama City Mine Warfare Research Facility and I lived of the base in Charleston, South Carolina for two years.  No Pollen.  I did get on first name basis with the Charleston Roaches though.

Both were on the coast with winds that move things.  It's when the pollen lingers and loiters for hours and days and weeks that it begins to cause hell.

I messed up.   I drink tonic water all the time anyway.  But forgot the zinc.  Will Scotch do? 

Not at the same time.

I may be many things.  But mixing scotch and tonic is worthy having me burnt at the stake for being a heretic.

Some coronavirus patients may suffer neurological problems such as dizziness, headaches and impaired consciousness, according to a study released Friday.

The study, conducted by several researchers in Wuhan, China, examined the symptoms of 214 coronavirus patients, and found nearly half of those with severe cases had neurological issues.

About a third of all patients studied — both severe and non-severe cases — had some neurological symptoms.

Thirty-six patients had dizziness, 28 had headaches and 16 suffered impaired consciousness, the study found.

Seizures and ataxia, a nervous system disease that causes slurred speech and stumbling, were each found in one patient with a severe case.

Add this to the growing list of the coronavirus‘ awful toll on victims: a symptom that produces a strange buzzing sensation throughout their body.

The side effect, reported by patients sharing their symptoms on Twitter, is now being described as “fizzing,” and is one of the more mysterious marks of the illness. Doctors on the frontlines of treating the illness tell The Post it may be one of the last sensations patients feel as their bodies fight the disease.

Other symptoms of the deadly disease include a loss of smell and taste, fever, aches, breathlessness, fatigue, a dry cough, diarrhea, strokes and seizures, and for some, no symptoms at all.

 

I'm pretty sure I had the Wuhan Red Death.  Even now, my senses of smell and taste are still very muted.  The headaches still have not completely gone away.  I definitely think I have some cognitive loss or impairment, hopefully temporary.  Fatigue, GI problems, dizziness, and aches are still around, but not like they were.

This thing is hell.  

God bless you man.   I hope you get better soon.
