Health Issues The Everything Covid 19 Thread

I just got a negative result for Covid.

I thought I had to do another test for antibodies but that was only if I had a positive result. I read that the symptoms of Covid are now more like cold symptoms (here is the UK, at least) so you think now it is cold and flu season that there are going to be a lot of tests being done over the next few months. I felt like I hadn't had a cold in months.

I still have a cough, but feel okay. The message said if I had a high temperature still then I should continue to self isolate, but I don't so I won't.
It's really good that you didn't have COVID.
My test result also came back as negative. That was a relief. For a while there I was a bit worried since my illness was quite rough.
 
My company is now making vaccine disclosure mandatory, and will start making weekly testing mandatory for everyone
Masking was based on the honor system, so I would think some people are gonna be in trouble!!!!! :lol::mask:

That is good!

My cold felt unusually bad too. I don't normally get a fever like that. I don't think? They say people are getting worse colds because we have mostly been staying away from other people so much and now we are mixing again.

Wearing face masks...it’s controversial for sure. I will wear one if I have to go to a store or to our closing. This is what we are now being told...

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is encouraging all Americans — even people who feel healthy — to wear cloth face masks or homemade face coverings in public when 6-feet social distancing is difficult to maintain in an effort to help slow the spread of the coronavirus. The new guidance, announced Friday, is a reversal from previous CDC recommendations that face masks need to be worn only by people who are sick with COVID-19, the or by those caring for someone who is sick.
From recent studies we know that the transmission from individuals without symptoms is playing a more significant role in the spread of the Disease, so in light of these studies, the CDC is advising the use of nonmedical cloth face coverings as an additional voluntary public health measure.


The CDC says its updated recommendation “complements and does not replace” instructions which call on older adults and people with underlying health conditions, in particular, to stay home as much as possible and to avoid others.

It's also important to remember to wash your hands often with soap and water (scrubbing for at least 20 seconds) and to stay home if you are feeling sick, health experts emphasize.

Face masks are “just one more layer of protection and the scale and scope of what we're facing, mandates that we take every precaution we can.”

What? Wait! you didn't know who Aaron Rodgers is?
Have you not seen a State Farm Commercial?*
He used to be Olivia Munn's boyfriend.

Oh, maybe they are only shown during football games.
I only know Aaron Rodgers because he's a liar, but don't know Olivia Munn. I was a bit aghast thinking of Olivia Wilde!
 
Aaron Rodgers guest hosted Jeopardy when they were auditioning people. I had no idea who he was at the time. Then I heard something on TV during a sports segment who he was. Now I know he's a big jerk!
