After I had a mystery virus with the exact symptoms of Covid in Jan 2020 months before the first official case here along with many others, I developed some diabetic symptoms that were troubling me still in June.

This went away thankfully and my tolerance for sugar returned but it was surprising as diabetes in my family was only slightly evident in one 80+ grandfather.

Knowing what we know now, Covid had done a number on my pancreatic cells which took a good while to recover.

I'm sure there is a documentary in the mystery virus many experienced worldwide often months before it should have reached them.

I knew someone that died suddenly in Dec. 2019 with covid/flu symptoms. I suspect it was Covid due to their sudden and rapid decline.

Sorry to hear. I have no doubt anymore it was in the wild long before the official timeline, just perhaps a less contagious version.
