You can catch COVID-19, no matter how sunny or hot the weather is. -
You can recover from the coronavirus disease (COVID-19). Catching the new coronavirus DOES NOT mean you will have it for life.
Most of the people who catch COVID-19 can recover and eliminate the virus from their bodies. -
Being able to hold your breath for 10 seconds or more without coughing or feeling discomfort DOES NOT mean you are free from the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) or any other lung disease.

Please, see above point 16.
No.
I do regular physical exercises (@ my simple home Gym) & calm down myself often by regular practicing of Meditation (Silent Yoga). I’m 95% vegetarian. I’m a non-smoker & non-drinker.
But, I should not become overconfident over my immune system, before COVID-19’s unknown strengths. If I do not give COVID-19 proper respect for its strengths, then it should be considered as my ego. And then, that ego will kill me along with many others. I should not forget the proverb: “Prevention is better than cure.”
Try to be positive as well as take precautions. In the above post you sounded little worried or disturbed which all are at this time but worrying didn’t solve it .Keep required precautions and believe that everything will eventually be fine.
To the new members. Never give up no mtter how hard things get. Tought times do not last, tough people do. I know that you have heard of the fact that many people fail in trading. Do not let fact discourage you. As much as people fail, there are still some people that are successful. These people did not take it to heart and stayed strong the whole time that they joined. Not everyine is fit for this kind of business but there are those who are and it may be you. You will never know unless you try. Finally rembember to stay up to date with what is going on in your trade market. Being in the know will help you to avoid unnecessary losses that may make you want to quit.
