I had a friend that was a nurse. Starting two wee

I had a friend that was a nurse. Starting two weeks ago, she had stomach ache, followed by fever, cough, shortness of breath. Her work wouldn't let her off.. She said it was the worst sickness she has ever had. both Tylenol and Advil around the clock to control fever. She went to emergency clinic last week, they would test since she hadn't traveled and only one or two cases in the area has tested positive yet. I don't know if she had it or not, but these kinds of stories are crazy because you want to catch the first case. Not wait until it is spread and then start testing.
