    Came down with multiple symptoms yesterday including a fever. Thought I call my doctor and go get tested in the afternoon or evening. Nope. Earliest test I could get is Thursday at noon. The doctor said the testing centers in the Twin Cities are overwhelmed. Laying in bed today. No fever today and can still taste and smell, so I’m taking that as a good sign that it’s a regular cold.
    That's awful.  I wonder if there's a reason. I got tested in May two hours after I looked into it.  Maybe there are more symptoms (coughs, etc.) after the cold weather came?

    My boss tested positive about a week ago and she is having a terrible time with it. Her husband and kids have recovered fine.

    I think that’s reasonable. Allergies as well. I know that was my first thought when I woke up yesterday.

    Thanks Bri!  I was really really nervous about this one; two people that I was close to last Friday tested positive.  (talked to one person for about five to ten minutes and was with the other person for over four hours.)

    thanks! you too!

    remember, it is best to look out for ourselves, because fewer and fewer people are taking the precautions to protect others. 10 miles west of me is basically the wild west. you go into a restaurant there with a mask on and maskless people look at you like you have 3 heads.

    i hope everyone keeps safe.

    What is this "restaurant" thing that you speak of? My head is a bit foggy, but I think I remember enjoying those on occasion way back in early 2020.

    Wrong we had plenty of warning here the idiot in chief failed to heed the warning! Yes China has shit regulations on their wet markets no doubt but with a leader that really cares about all its citizens he could of saved thousands of lives!
