Initially, Finnerty felt like he caught a cold. A few days passed, and then suddenly he woke up early one night drenched in sweat.
He was overcome by waves of dizziness, delusion and nausea. Finnerty’s temperature spiked to 103.9 °F. He spent seven hours slouched over a toilet vomiting until he dry heaved painfully. It started to register that this could be COVID19, but it was hard to believe, because he had heard over and over that people his age are not generally at risk.
