Feeling moderately better this morning. I will go out and get more cough medicine and drops. Work making us go back to the office for good starting tomorrow. But I do not think we will see the new year unless they are just not wanting a layoff before that or/and seeing if the business drop is because of the holidays.

Thanks for the well wish. If work is testing I will get tested. If not I will ride it out for now, though I am loading up on Zinc and C for good measure.
Surely to god, with suspected and likely covid infection, you MUST take sick leave and indeed, NOT go to the pharmacy or store. ISOLATE. Quarantine.

'If work is getting tested I will get tested'.......
Just self isolate and get tested. JFDI. Jeez. How many people do you want to infect?

I highly doubt it is the china virus. Just a regular cold. Nothing makes it "likely."

Likely enough. JFDI. Don't be selfish.

There is value to YOU in knowing whether you have covid or not. There is certainly value to those within your proximity.

I see little value in knowing. I am sick or I am not. Already feeling marginally better though I loaded up on cough medicine. Will spend the day watching my NFL bets pay off or lose.

Some time in the future.....

"I'm going to avoid this busy elevator full of selfish coughing zombies, because I don't know if I have antibodies from that time I was ill"

Enjoy watching your NFL
Enjoy your sick leave, isolating for a few days.

Don't be selfish. Don't spread WHATEVER infection you have.

I would welcome the opportunity to quarantine for 10 days and not go to work.

AZDuffman loves to scapegoat gays for being disease spreaders.

OH THE IRONY.

Really? I don't know if that is true. If AZD goes to work tomorrow or while still obviously infected with something, then it's more than a bit of irony.

This will never stop being fascinating. The spread keeps increasing.

You seem to be amazed that Trump supporters are in favour of freedom and Biden supporters like being sheep and really want a government to tell them what they think.
