In Albany, deaths from 2 to 4 in a day, pos. tests 22 to 40 in a day. About 700 tests waiting a return, folks are supposed to be home awaitng the results.The city govt. starts a 7 day shutdown of churches, restaurants, etc. The folks around here are not conducive to being asked/told what to do. It'll be worse around here soon. This just out on facebook page, live at the courthouse..
 
Looks like the ibuprofen thing is for real. If you get a fever, stay away from the ibuprofen.

World Health Organization backs call to avoid ibuprofen for coronavirus

Some researchers have also cast doubt on the advice. University of St Andrews Infection and Global Health Division researcher Muge Cevik wrote on Twitter that: "There's no scientific evidence I am aware of that ibuprofen [causes worse] outcomes in #COVID19."

But others disagreed. Rupert Beale, group leader in Cell Biology of Infection at the UK's Francis Crick Institute, said: "There is a good reason to avoid ibuprofen as it may exacerbate acute kidney injury brought on by any severe illness, including severe COVID-19 disease," CNN reported.

It looks like the jury is still out on it...
