Yes my step mom has it and been in hospital for almost a month on a ventilator.  It does not look good.  Also my husband has 3 friends that died of it.

Nope.  Not only do I not know one person with Covid-19 -- I don't know a single person that knows anyone with Covid-19.  Although I do know of a few people who think they have had it without a diagnosis, as it was before the pandemic became a pandemic... so until the antibody test comes out for the masses, we won't know for sure.

The antibody test is available now. I do not see too many people running to get this test. Why would you? They have said that they now think it was here in December. Which then brings up the big "why is the country shut down now" question. If it was here in Dec then it obviously was not as big of a scare issue as they are making it now. But the more you read about data bases and your private health issues being added to these data bases instead of just an anonymous count the less people would want to have either test.

I don't know anyone super close to me that has had COVID, but I do know some distant friends that have had it or have had family members with the virus!

I have had 3 people in my family test positive with the coronavirus. 
My brother-in-law had a high fever and was hospitalized.  He recovered nicely.
My daughter's significant other tested positive.  He had mild "cold" symptoms.
My son-in-law also tested positive.  He had mild cold symptoms.

I know an older woman who has cancer and double pneumonia....she is extremely sick and on a ventilator fighting for her life.

I know a few people that have tested positive as far as FB friends. No one in my immediate family or friends have. I would presume at some point, I will know someone close to me. My sister is convinced that she had it back in November with all of the symptoms and it went on for several weeks. Of course no one knew anything about covid then.

Since I replied when you first started it I do know a few that have had it since then.  Everything from a mild cold to more severe case.  A cousin had it but it was just like a mild cold for a couple days.  She was tested because someone she works with was positive.
