I believe I have it although I haven't been tested yet. I'm a healthy and physically active 28 year old. I have a high fever, general body aches, difficulty swallowing, dry painful cough. This is the third day of symptoms with no improvement. No pressure or tightness in my chest as of yet.

However, if I have it, my wife probably has it too. Her only symptoms are a mild sore throat and an ache in her back. It's much less severe than mine.

I had the bad luck of getting swine flu in 2009 and this is just as bad.

I think I absolutely misrepresented what I think. I didn't mean for it to come off that it wasn't more serious than a normal cold. I meant that many won't be affect more than that,. However the ones that get more sever cases/more exposure are at high risk, not to mention the older populace in general. I'm absolutely terrified for everyone right now.
