Or a "cold"Back in the old days we used to call that a bug. I think I have a bug, or I think I’m catching something probably a bug.
I forgot all about the rona. Is it still a thing? Guess we achieved herd immunity faster than expected after all.
I understand your concern for the wife and her health. I'm wishing you (and especially her) the best!My wife and I made a trip to our place in AZ last Tuesday. Friday I tested positive for Covid. I am fully vaxed, except for this fall....which was not available until now. Went to the same day clinic and spoke to a Doctor there. She told me that you are contagious for 5 days and that is it. Nothing near the symptoms of past years. "you don't qualify for a pill (that is largely exploratory and has side effects)...... Take some ibuproen, Sudafed, and get some rest. Come back if you have respiratory problems".
My wife tested positive on Sat. She is the one I worry about as she has gone thru so much with heart surgeries over the past few years. Her's does seem more mild than mine to this point. We're hanging out at our home and watching ball games and posting too much on sites like this.....grin. Going back to the Tundra on Sat. Our plans for a trip into the mountains for fall colors were dashed. Curses!.....foiled again.
Gotta say....this is more or less a bad cold, sore throat and upset stomach so far. I'd like to think I'm over the hump.....and hope my wife is too. She needs to do some treadmill stuff to stay healthy.....and it's too hot to walk outdoors. If we could get going earlier....the weather would be "ok".....but neither of us feel that well when we get up. Getting bored at times. At least I got the Twins games to look forward to. Pretty sure this will pass soon.

Glad to hear the symptoms are not too bad. Our second “senior deer hunt” scheduled for this weekend at one of our east-central Missouri campuses was postponed due to an outbreak of covid that has over 20 residents and staff testing positive. All were vaccinated, and none are having respiratory issues, just cold symptoms ranging from mild inconvenience to bad-cold.
