Does that mean I will definitely die?

Figures and more, from this site.

So no, you are not going to "definitely" die. You're best off talking to an actual medical professional though rather than a bunch of random strangers on an internet forum.

No you won't. There are plenty of people who have recovered from the virus thanks to adequate care and proper treatment as Burn stated. COVID-19 isn't as scary or doom-bringing as the media makes it out to be, but going through it is by no means fun.

As long as you don't show symptoms, the best thing to do get yourself quarantined to avoid spreading the virus to others who may be more vulnerable, like people with preexisting lung conditions, compromised immune systems, or seniors above 60. When you do start feeling sick, or get sudden shortness of breath, head for the ER, stat.

How did you get diagnosed by the way?

Damn, that is terrible. For what it's worth, I think you'll likely be fine. Best of luck.

I had to go to the ER for an unrelated reason, and I tested positive for the virus. I don't feel that sick yet. I just have a slight fever and a runny nose. No difficulty breathing so far. :SICK:

I am feeling much better now. For a few days, I felt pretty awful. Looks like it was a fairly mild case. I am very lucky compared to a lot of people! :(

Basically it only kills those who are already weak, which mean usually old people or those with a pre-existing health condition especially one connected to respiratory problem. Most of the fear regarding the virus' lethality was mass hysteria and fear peddling. Says a lot when nearly every death in my area was in retirement homes or hospitals.

My dad was diagnosed with it, but never developed symptoms. Either asymptomatic or a false positive. Still gave us all a scare.

Glad to hear your doing well.
