 My name is John Dive and I am a junior at Alabama. I double majored in political science and public relations. I woke up that morning that I was sick and the symptoms just kind of got worse. I had a fever and a sore throat and I had lost my sense of smell and taste. But the main reason that I went to got tested was actually my parents. I reached out to them and they really stressed that it was important that I needed to go get a test to find out. I ended up getting most every symptom that I had read about and spoke to about with the doctor. It all started with loss of sense of taste and smell. Severe sore throat kind of resembled a strep throat type of a deal. Severe fever that lasted about 10 days. It was around 101 and shortness of breath was the scariest one for sure. I just wanted people to see that a, a 20 year old healthy boy who lives in Alabama and has grown up around rural Alabama, his life has got it and he did not have a fun time having it. It's okay to go get tested and it doesn't hurt and I could advise people if they do feel a little sick to reach out to their local health care position. And it's also very important like health reasons aside that our college experience is gonna be very much different than past before us because we're going to have to stay online as long as we don't abide by the rules. If we'll just abide by the rules then eventually maybe we can reach normality again.
