Italy's patient 1 is 38 and was in excellent health before catching the virus (he ran two half marathons in a week just before getting sick). Then he spent 20 days in an ICU attached to a ventilator.

If he ran two marathons in one week then he was weakened/unrecovered IMO.

Uggh, that reminds me that I better take it easy when the weather breaks. I like to take LONG bike rides (typically 80-100 km) when the weather is nice. Yes, exercise is good for me, but inadvertently overtaxing myself would not be good.
