• Blood oxygen level is actually a much more accurate early indicator of a novel coronavirus infection than a fever, and there are two great deals right now on pulse oximeters with Amazon Prime shipping.
• It’s the $60 Wellue Fingertip Blood Oxygen Saturation Monitor, and it’s on sale today for only $35.99 thanks to a special coupon.
• Amazon is also offering a killer deal right now on the $260 ViATOM Wrist Oxygen Monitor, which is available for just $125.99 for a limited time.
• Both models have built-in Bluetooth so you can connect to a free app on your iPhone or Android device.

There is something extremely important about novel coronavirus infections that everyone out there really needs to know: fever isn’t necessarily a symptom of COVID-19. We know what you’re thinking — fever is the one thing that you’ve heard to be on the lookout for as an early sign of the COVID-19 disease that’s caused by the new coronavirus. Well, it turns out that a fever might not be as common a coronavirus symptom as we all thought. As you’ll read in the article we just linked, some studies have found that fewer than half of patients infected by the novel coronavirus presented a fever.

Don’t worry though, because we have some good news to offset that bad news: there’s actually a far more accurate early indicator of a coronavirus infection. Since the virus attacks the lungs, people with COVID-19 can often tell by checking their blood oxygen level. According to the Mayo Clinic, normal blood oxygen readings should be between 95% and 100%. In coronavirus patients, however, healthcare professionals have been reporting patients with readings as low as 50%. The important number to remember is that anything under 90% is considered unhealthy.

Now, the only question that remains is a simple one: how can you monitor your blood oxygen level to see if you might have COVID-19? It’s actually easier than you think — and it’s far less expensive than it normally would be thanks to a great sale right now on Amazon.

You’ve probably seen a pulse oximeter before even if you’re not familiar with the name. It’s a tiny gadget that clips to your finger and reads your blood oxygen level quickly and painlessly. A high-quality pulse oximeter is typically pretty expensive, but the top-rated Wellue Fingertip Blood Oxygen Saturation Monitor is on sale right now at Amazon. Just use the coupon code QK3V4E4C at checkout and you’ll only pay $35.99. This model typically sells for $60, so that’s a terrific price. It also has built-in Bluetooth so it can connect to a free app on your iPhone or Android!

If you’re looking for something a bit more sophisticated, the ViATOM Wrist Oxygen Monitor that has a retail price of $260 is also on sale and it has a huge discount right now. This model is made to be worn for as long as you’d like while you’re sleeping or while you’re awake, and it has an alarm feature if your blood oxygen level falls too low. An $80 discount on Amazon cuts the price to $180, but you can also use the coupon code 4TQ6HKCP at checkout for a final price of $125.99. That’s an all-time low, and the coupon is good until the end of the day on May 31.

• Coronavirus tips from the CDC and other related information should generally be considered the most accurate and reliable info available.
• Last week, however, the CDC made a big change to the COVID-19 information on its website that caused quite a stir.
• The CDC now says that the novel coronavirus does not spread easily from touching surfaces or objects, but you should completely ignore that advice if you want to stay safe.

The novel coronavirus is still so new that our knowledge of the virus is still changing on an almost daily basis. Things we think we know for certain one week can be proven wrong the next, and information we’ve been reading for months can be flipped on its head in an instant. A perfect example came last week when Trump declared that he was taking hydroxychloroquine regularly as a preventative measure to avoid catching COVID-19. Needless to say, Trump lies all the time so we have no way of knowing whether or not he is actually taking the drug.

First and foremost, there have never been any suggestions from the medical community that hydroxychloroquine might work as a preventative measure. Instead, the drug has been studied as a potential therapy for people who have already contracted COVID-19. Trump has been talking it up repeatedly with no real science to back up his claim, and then the inevitable happened this past Friday: a massive study found that Trump’s beloved hydroxychloroquine actually makes coronavirus worse. The study analyzed the cases of more than 96,000 COVID-19 patients around the world. It found that when used on its own or when combined with an antibiotic, hydroxychloroquine dramatically increased a patient’s likelihood of developing severe heart arrhythmia or dying.

• The standard 3-layer coronavirus face masks you see everyone wear are more than good enough to protect you as long as you also practice social distancing — they’re also only $0.70 each right now at Amazon, so stock up while you can.
• There are some situations where you want a bit more protection, such as when you go grocery shopping or when you travel on public transportation.
• If you want extra protection without buying price-gouged N95 masks and taking resources away from hospitals, Amazon has KN95 face masks in stock right now for around $3 each.
• Visit BGR’s homepage for more stories.

There’s no question that Jointown 3-layer face masks that are best-sellers over on Amazon do a fine job of protecting you from catching or spreading the novel coronavirus as long as you also practice social distancing and good hygiene. They’re also only $0.70 each, so tens of thousands of our readers have stocked up on them ever since the CDC recommended that we all wear face masks anytime we have to leave our homes. We’ll continue to need masks for the foreseeable future either, since coronavirus definitely isn’t going anywhere anytime soon. In addition to alcohol-based hand sanitizer, these masks are the most popular things we cover these days here at BGR Deals.

Face Mask, Pack of 50: $34.99 ($0.70 / mask)

The Jointown face masks we mentioned above do a fine job of protecting you as long as you also practice social distancing and good hygiene. They’re also wonderfully inexpensive so you should definitely stock up on a few boxes while they’re in stock. There are some higher-risk situations where you want a bit more protection though. For example, when you go shopping in a grocery store, take public transportation, or fly on an airplane. That’s why it’s also a very good idea to stock up on some KN95 face masks that you can use in those situations, but KN95 masks have been much more difficult to come by lately.

Magicare 4-Ply Material Protection High Efficiency of Filtration, 3D Design for Better Fit the…: $68.67 ($3.43 / mask)

There’s no question that they’ll sell out soon, but MagiCare KN95 face masks are somehow back in stock right now at Amazon. It has been about a month since we last saw them and they flew off the shelves back then. These face masks feature four layers of protection and are rated to filter 95% or more of microscopic airborne particles out of the air we breathe. You absolutely still need to practice strict social distancing and good hygiene, but these masks are great for some added peace of mind in higher-risk situations.

MagiCare KN95 face masks are priced at around $3 each right now on Amazon when you buy a box of 20, and they’re in stock so they’ll be delivered next week. These masks are typically priced at $90 per box of 20, so this is a terrific deal. Shipping times will start to slip very quickly now that the cat’s out of the bag though, so order a box or two now before they inevitably sell out.

• The iPhone 12 launch is several months away, but the first iPhone 13 rumors are already here.
• A leaker who offers Apple rumors regularly revealed the purported iPhone 13 camera specs for at least one model of the 2021 iPhone generation.
• There’s no way to confirm any of the data at this point, even if it’s real, and the leaker doesn’t explain where it comes from.

The iPhone 12 series will be unveiled either in September or in October, depending on how well the novel coronavirus threat is contained by then. A leaker said a few days ago that Apple might move the iPhone event to September to increase its chances of hosting an in-person launch. An audience is supposedly needed for what could be an exciting “One more thing” announcement, the reveal of Apple’s first augmented reality glasses. What’s also interesting is that the iPhone 12 and the Apple Glass aren’t the only unannounced Apple products detailed in new leaks. A number of reports have addressed next year’s iPhone generation, and the latest leak describes the high-end camera module that might equip some of the iPhone 13 models next year.

• As the toll that the coronavirus takes on the US continues to mount, so, too, does the bad news.
• An Amazon delivery driver recently had a surprising reaction after she dropped off a package on the porch of one home, where a family has been relying on package deliveries more than ever during the coronavirus pandemic.
• They’d posted a note outside thanking drivers for delivering much-needed packages for their sick son. And in response to that note, which caught the Amazon driver’s eye, she can be seen on the family’s security camera stopping for a quiet prayer.

Not only has good news been pretty hard to come by during the coronavirus pandemic that’s upended daily life in America like no other catastrophe in at least a generation — the bad news is continuing to mount at a nonstop, merciless pace. As of the time of this writing, on Wednesday afternoon, the US was a couple hundred deaths away from hitting 100,000 lives lost since the onset of the pandemic, with the virus having infected almost 1.7 million Americans and thrown tens of millions out of work. Just this week, trend lines have also shown the virus getting worse in 24 states, and the World Health Organization is warning about the possibility of a second peak in cases.

All that said, we could definitely use more people like Amazon delivery driver Monica Salinas in the world right about now. Her story has been going viral, and all it took was the simple act of dropping off a package on a family’s porch and saying a prayer for them.

• Travel safety during the novel coronavirus pandemic is a massive issue, especially for flying, which plane makers, airlines, and health officials are looking to address.
• Airbus, Boeing, and carriers are looking at new ways to reduce the risk of COVID-19 transmission aboard their planes and increase the safety of passengers.
• While the new measures could make flying safer than ever, it might not be enough to eliminate the risk of transmission.

The novel coronavirus has crippled the world’s economy in a way not seen since the Great Depression. Plans are underway to start the recovery. There’s talk of new stimulus checks in the US, Europe is funding its own “Marshal Plan” for the EU region, and China is bracing for the worst-case scenario. The main problem with any plans to kickstart the economy is that the virus hasn’t gone anywhere. Experts caution that a second wave may be imminent. This could hinder plans to reopen, as some people might not be ready to “go back to normal.” That includes the ability or willingness to travel, and of all the modes of transportation, it’s flying that will worry people the most.

The good news is that Airbus and Boeing are already looking at ways to increase the safety of passengers and crew who board their planes. And airlines are making all sorts of new rules that should further improve safety and reduce transmission risks. In the end, the novel coronavirus might make flying safer than it ever has been in the past. But, ultimately, that might not be enough to keep passengers safe from the virus.
