Well everyone I tested positive for CoronaVirus

[odeon]

Lots of it going on here as well. Thinking I'll need another shot.

I was sick a few weeks ago. The cough stayed for a month or more. Probably not covid - I tested negative - but who knows?

When I had a cold months ago, it was all I could do to insert the sample stick up my nose because it was so sensitive. I ended up sneezing very forcefully.

I still have an asthma cough from when I had that cold.

I had it September 2022. It's no joke 

I haven't been 100% right since.

^ That sucks. It seems to have left a lot of people with lingering illnesses.

My twin and her family have Covid - again. I'm hoping they'll be ok soon as I'm seeing them for Christmas.

Yeah, Covid is no fun.

Hard to know how many people have it these days. I followed the numbers until they stopped publishing them. Now it's like flying blind.

Last Thursday I went to the doctor for prescriptions and a flu shot and he said Covid starting to make its rounds again.  I'm hoping I won't get it as I've yet to get it.

Kayleigh has been suffering with a very bad cold these last few days. She tested negative for Covid thankfully. I've been virus free all winter.

Tests are no longer 100% anymore. You can test neg and then maybe 3-4 days in test positive...or it shows up as such a faint positive people misread it.

I don't know how many times husband has been sick with this crap from having the bar...but I'd say a few times. He will not even test anymore. Honestly believe many of the health issues he is facing now could have stemmed from this crap.

Some of my taste buds are not what they used to be. I can't eat certain foods because they smell and taste like puke. Literally.

Yeah. I never regained 100% of my taste buds it seems. Stuff I used to love now tastes nasty...weird.

I don't go out a lot anymore, and I didn't go out much as it was before...people get right up and cough in your face around here...and I swear some of them fucking start foaming at the mouth when they see someone in a mask.

^They wouldn't do too well in Japan then. At the slightest sniffle they wear a mask to prevent their germs from spreading. I saw a few when I was there and that was back in 2002.

Hell...I remember seeing people in Japan wearing masks in the 80's when I was a kid and spent half my days catching every bug that went around twice...I thought the whole caring about not spreading the seasonal plague to your friends/family was a "good thing" and couldn't understand why we never did it here.

I'm in a red zone, and honestly once they started making it political at the start of this shit show people would target you. I was approached and targeted with more than a few snide remarks and dumb fuckery until I finally just started going out less and less. It takes so long for me to shake even a bad cold with my allergies/asthma and I have better shit to do and people around me with worse health issues that still rely on me to do them...I don't have the time to sit around for a month+ coughing up a lung or two...let alone the money to cover a hospital visit or some overpriced steroids and another inhaler. 

I have come to the conclusion in the last 5 years that I understand absolutely nothing and no longer have the desire to figure it out either.

I do my own social distancing anyways... I put it to better use for that reason, even if the Pandemic isn't a problem anymore.

^_____ I recant my statement, I'm resupplying myself with masks when my paydays happen.

[Parts]

Social distancing the one thing from the pandemic I liked

Yep, same. I wish it was still in place. Can't stand it when strangers bump into me from behind when I'm standing in a line. It's not going to make it move faster. I used to just point to the stickers on the floor. Can't do that anymore.

Yeah, that was nice.
