In "my" island (Amorgos, I bet 99.999% of those who will read this does not even know where it is), there's plenty of small traditional family tavernas where to eat fish of the day, goat, traditional dishes, "ola sta karvouna" ("all on the charcoal") grilled meat and fish, YUMMMMYYYY. Few people, mostly couples, zero mongering, lonely cultivated fields dry for the summer, steep mountains, crystal blue sea: it's true paradise for me.

How to be isolated for 1 or 2 months? Where? Hotel? Rented apartment? Just this expense will raise much above the amount planned initially (which was deemed affordable).
Then, who buys food and medicines and everything for 1-2 months? Will the insurance (assuming the wise traveller has a good insurance) assist also for this?
Alone without any friend and family to help in Colombia or anywhere far from home?
If getting sick of COVID in my country is a nightmare already, I cannot imagine what ordeal it would be 10,000 km away from my home.
I read with greatest sympathy and participation the posts of Balboa and of others who found themselves sick in Colombia. Good to know that it does not seem bad, but it's like walking on a steel blade. All my best wishes guys. Be strong and careful.

If I give you no more advice, allow me to give you this, obey the American laws if you are a foreigner, the stigma attached to anything of the such is so horrible that even if you are not guilty of anything your fight to return to normal would be so expensive and embarrassing that the chances that you may be taking are just not worth it, don't do it. The amount of 18 yr old and older chics in this country is so plentiful that doing anything that goes against 18 yrs and older is plain stupid. If this country's men like chics, allow them to do what is normal for them, and you do what you know is legal for your, 18 and older! Pollo Negro is out!

Getting covid should be the last thing a monger care about, rationally, the amount of other risks involved in mongering in Medellin, especially in el centro, is much more severe both in terms of degree and likelihood. To corroborate my point, here is a short list:
Getting basic STDs.
Overdose on drugs.
Getting a girl pregnant.
Getting robbed.
Getting someone who is under age using a fake ID.
Getting blackmailed.
Getting hit by innocent boyfriend who doesn't know their girl is working.
The girl steals from you.
The girl drugs you.
The girl works with cops to extort you.
Just to name a few. Anyone of those will have a chance to make your life worse than having covid.

She was asking about the coronavirus. Told me people were telling her it's a hoax. I explained to her my experience with my aunt and the local nursing home. Told her it's bad, but Medellin has mostly been spared.
Today she messaged me again. She had just finished talking to a monger who has it. Told her his symptoms and that he can't breathe.
Glad to hear you got it light and are on the mend.

I got into a good routine with one of them and we were seeing each other often with really good GFE sex.
A couple weeks ago I started to feel the symptoms of getting a cold.
Sore throat, etc, however, also very fatigued like I've never been.
I thought, uh oh, and got tested.
Came out Positive.
So of course I went into self isolation.
Contacted whomever I had been in contact with recently to let them know, and surprisingly no one else came up sick nor tested Positive.
My little honey here felt bad, and she tested Positive, and isolated as well, never having any symptoms at all.
I remember and believe a long kiss she gave me passed me the virus.
At least that's my guess, but really could have been anything, we were in pretty close contact frequently.
Anyway I recovered fairly easily.
Sore throat, sinus headaches, ear aches, and I got hit hard in the stomach, with nausea, etc.
Never required any treatment besides over the counter meds.
Never had any breathing problems.
I get my re test tomorrow actually.
Both for the virus and the anti body test.
I feel great now, I got lucky, but like you said, and whether it's in Colombia or USA, or wherever, one is playing Russian roulette socializing in general really.
Now my girl here who passed me the virus calls us Corona lovers and we'll re kindle soon, once we both test negative.
Soon!
Be careful out there guys.

Posts: 1507Went through Botero today to do a little shopping. There were a lot of chicas out. Looked like a normal pre-Covid day. Seems like there are more chicas in Botero now with the Venezuelans and some places like strip clubs closed.

Numbers are going to spike in Europe, just as they have everywhere else. And it will happen long before September 1.

In regards to your remarks about the virus, I doubt any members of this board would be mongering if they even suspected they had the virus, yet can easily see lot's of the hookers, especially those that ply El Centro knowingly going with guys while they have symptoms if not severe. And this goes back to your statement, "the virus rules" and getting sick away from home, and how treatment might be. Apparently in Bogota, the City has taken over the private Hospitals in some ways. The concern is that if the public hospitals reach capacity, and have run out of space for the poor, where as the private hospitals have capacity, the poor would be sent there. So what does this mean, you may have lots of money, but there may not be a spot available to you as the Citizens will most probably be getting in first versus a foreigner, of course this is a worst case scenario, but being sick with the virus away from home should be a concern.
Until there's a reliable vaccine, mongering is going to kind of be like Russian roulette to a certain degree. In the USA right now a lot of young people are getting infected, and upwards of 40 % of them have no symptoms and they are infecting others not knowing their infected, like those who are older, and there's lot of older guys going with lot's of younger women in Colombia for sure. So I think this illustrates where your coming from in your post.
