    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.

    Any body aches?
    Yesterday my joints hurt. Had a rotten headache too. Today not so much.

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

    Just got test number two because of a coworker who I work with tested positive.  Rapid results are negative, waiting on the other one.  
    Damn that sucks to have to go through this specially you a teacher! It’s absurd that this country can’t get this under control..

    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.)

    nope. and we just reelected our governor who refuses to do anything in the way of a mask mandate or shutting anything down. we are gonna drown in the rona here. my teammate just called me and said his sister and now his father are both positive.
