People are still very hungry for information.
"I've been quarantining since Thursday, March 12. That day I had a headache and I just assumed it was a normal headache. A few days later I had a sore throat kind of come and go and I began to take some herbs prescribed to me by my acupuncturist and Chinese medicine doctor," Bundy said later. "A few days after that I had what I can only explain as a tightness in my chest and a shortness of breath that was also intermittent."
