Re I kept worrying they was planting covid bugs up in my brain, sorta like a Khan/Chekov movie:
Same here! I have been tested ten times for medical/work/family requirements—and I’ve been worried about it each time. I do a spray of X-lear in each nostril afterwards and just hope for the best.
So glad you are okay and back home. The bastids will never get YOU.
Same here. Had minor surgery in June and worried that while I was “put under”, they would give me the vaccine!
