Covid x 2 at our house [View all]


I posted the other day in the Lounge that I had Covid. Because I talked about the high cost of drugs, it probably should have been in GD: https://www.democraticunderground.com/10182282955

Anyway, I was diagnosed Wednesday at the doctor's office. Marta woke up sick yesterday. The home test kit was a positive for Covid. She is not happy with me for bringing this home. So far, she hasn't been sick enough to want to take the Paxlovid. I know. Preaching to the choir. But it is her call.

I'm much better than I was Wednesday. I thank everyone for their concern for my health and the hearts that came with it. It won't be much of a Valentine's Day. I'll have sports on ALL day. I'll check in on the DU. Marta has a new game she is playing. It ruined our dinner plans.
