“I started feeling sick three days after the party. I had all the symptoms of the flu. There was no cough, I didn’t have any respiratory distress, tightness in my chest or shortness of breath,” she said.

She said that it was only a few days later when she discovered that other people from the same party were experiencing the same symptoms as her. “All of us started experiencing symptoms on the same Tuesday, February 25,” she said.

Schneider’s friends were tested negative for the flu but were never tested for coronavirus.
