I was in California for a work trip the last week of January (27th -31st). I flew in and out of LAX, drove in Ubers all week, and ate out for nearly all my meals. We even went to a few LA touristy spots while we were there.

By February 13th, my 9yr old came down with what we thought was the flu. He was not tested for flu so we really don’t know, but looking back, his symptoms were similar to that of CV19 - fever, chills, exhaustion, aches, and a deep chest cough. He was laid out and would not go back to school until the 19th.

A few days later on Saturday the 15th, my 5 yr old daughter and I both came down with the same bug. Fever, chills, terrible aches, and a deep chest cough that lasted for a few weeks. I literally just slept for hours on end, and was in bed 95% of the time during those 5 days. I didn’t end up going back to work until Thursday the 21st.

A couple days later, my youngest son also got the same bug, but it only lasted a couple days.

From what I’ve read about the CV19 incubation period, I’m convinced I was exposed to the virus in CA and experienced the symptoms a couple weeks later. My wife, thankfully, was the only one who didn’t get sick. I don’t know how the family would have survived if she became sick during the same time period.
