"...what's remarkable is that most patients that we test and find have been infected have been carriers of the virus for two, sometimes three weeks, and have presented no symptoms at all.

Luke moaned ruefully as he pushed his arms against the side of the cramped toilets. His brow was deeply furrowed, his jaw was clenched hard, and the blood vessel near his temple rippled as he attempted to force out the fourth nervous poop that he'd had today.

Tears streamed down his face as he finally felt the floodgates open. A thunderous groan as sounded throughout the upstairs staff bathroom as he felt a wave of relief wash over him.
Alas, he felt no better as he pushed down the flush. Nerves aside, he still felt like he was going to be sick. Like a few of the other employees, his nose had trickled a tad, but in Luke's case he also had quite the pounding headache to accompany it.
He clutched his head as he reached for the loo roll.
Suddenly, his stomach churned, and his eyes became drowsy, as if a sudden wave of disorientation had decided to strike him out of the blue. He wobbled slightly from his berth on the toilet seat, grumbling as he began to see double of the standard bathroom stall.
