Thank you all - we are very hopeful.
As of 3:30am (we are a 24/7 family) she was doing well enough to have done homework (she's also a FT on-line student) and bathed and was headed to bed. Her symptoms seem about the same as 48 hours ago, which according to her is a very good sign.
I just keep praying and encouraging people take this seriously but not panic. One of my repeated pleas to friends, family & acquaintances is: "Please get your information from the CDC and State Department of Health, not Facebook and Twitter." Another is "Regardless of your politics, we're all in this together and fighting and sarcastic posts do not help."

That's great news Sue @sueinmn. I'm praying for all our nurses, doctors, healthcare, and personnel who serve the communities. Also hoping 3M and other companies can gear up quickly to make more masks and ventilators. Thank you for sharing your repeated pleas to friends, family and acquaintances. My group is smaller but I try to do the same. I do worry about my wife working at different local post offices at age 75. She is in excellent health but sometimes thinks she's invincible. Our daughter works at Mayo in Rochester and I do worry a little about her since she has a pacemaker implant. We haven't had any COVID-19 cases here in Dodge County yet but I'm sure we will sooner or later.

P.S. - We had a trace of snow here last night but it's 22 degrees and the sun is out now. I was surprised to see the sanding truck drive by the house this morning. Must be a little slippery.

Good to hear that your daughter's condition seems stable, @sueinmn. Tell you sister at 3M that we appreciate the work the company is doing to produce that product!
