My nephew has been testing positive since Saturday…fever, now just has sniffles. They will keep testing him until he is negative.
My dad is in assisted living, and a resident has tested positive, so now he can’t leave his room for 3 days.
2 years ago, the whole family wore masks (not me) at Christmas after us not seeing each other for almost a year….have only seen them twice since then.
I’ve been trying to wake them up for 15 years. My whole family is ruined. Fuuuuuck 😣💔
People that get tested absolutely boggle my mind, especially the people that test themselves over and over again. The ones who test over and over until they get the result they want, why did they not trust the first result? Why is the 2nd or 3rd result more trustworthy? Unless you need the result to do something (travel, work, etc.), why do you care whether the illness you have is covid or not? How are you going to behave differently now that you know your illness is covid? The person might respond by saying, oh well I would wear a mask in public, or distance myself from other people, etc. Etc. But my response to that, is if you feel those things work to prevent spreading your illness, do you feel that it is OK to spread your illness to other people as long as it isn't covid, if so why? No matter how I try to look at the situation it just doesn't make any sense, unless the person is of the mindset that if the illness isn't covid then they are completely OK with spreading it to other people, otherwise how is their behavior going to change by getting tested? It isn't! So what's the point? There is none!
It makes my brain hurt just thinking about it.
It sucks that your Thanksgiving is going to suffer because of people having completely lost their minds. People that behave like this usually aren't very fun to be around anyways though. Hopefully you are still able to enjoy yourself and eat some good food though, and if there's any of your family that hasn't lost it hopefully you can get together with them atleast.
