I talked to a junior domo guy at Meijer (midwest grocery chain) he seemed to think most of the problem was in transport. Not sure if he’s right, but that was his view.

Half the country is standing in line to take a Covid test, or they've cleaned out all that at-home tests and if you have the sniffles, you're going to test positive for Omicron. This means for many, a mandatory 5-10 days off of work.

I'm in the same boat right now. Forced to test by my employer because my son tested positive on Friday. I had mild cold symptoms over the weekend and tested positive myself. I can't return to work until the 18th even though I now feel perfectly fine.

Hubby and I still haven’t tested for Covid because the tests are so hard to find. Plus who wants to leave the house to get a stupid test when they’re sick, FFS? We’re just gonna assume we have it and maybe get an antibody test in a few weeks to be sure.

We’re on day 5 and feeling better, but I’ve still got a bad cough and a slight headache, and hubby feels congested and blah. We’re gonna keep up our supplements and vitamins, including ivermectin, but I might add some hydroxychloroquine, even tho I’m taking quercetin, just to get over the hump.

I haven’t tested for Covid yet, but apparently I may not have to after all. I was eating some taquitos with salsa earlier and noticed it tasted like cardboard. I can still smell things okay, but nothing really tastes normal. I didn’t have a loss of taste when I had Covid in March 2020, but I’m definitely not enjoying food this time around. 🤬
