So here I sit, about 5 days into it....
Short story is there was an outbreak at work... like a big outbreak. Half vaccinated, half not. I was bobbing and weaving, shucking and jiving.. but it finally caught up to a few of the vaccinated people I was hanging out with. I'm still not vaxed, nor is my family. They came back positive so I took a rapid test. NEGATIVE. Cool... back to work staying outside and keeping my distance away from everyone.
Two days later my wife gets sick. It was my day off so we immediately pull the kids out of school. She takes a rapid test and it is negative. The whole family goes to Kaiser for the PCR tests. Next day, 4 out of the 6 come back positive. I'm still negative. We figure the kids may have picked it up from school or Karate, not sure, and gave it to the wife. My negative results could have been due to only low levels of the infection, non detectable at the time of my Rapid test.
Day of Positive tests: Wife has congestion, headache, low grade fever. Kids are pretty much just chillin. I'm working around the house. Day three into their fight I start feeling symptoms. I give it a couple days, go get another rapid test and BOOM..... POSITIVE.
So as of today I'm officially 5 days into symptoms. Headache, runny nose, dry throat for two days then pretty much gone, off and on sneezing and coughing. Still have taste. Wife is the same but she lost her sense of smell yesterday. Kids, still just chillin. Only minor cold like symptoms and they are all 7 days into testing positive.
We had appointments for the Regeneron treatment but got an email the morning of saying they are out. Most of the people at work have returned with exception to two, who are on ventilators in the hospital. They were not the epitome of fitness by any means, but not walking around half dead prior to Covid either. Healthy working people who got the bug. I believe one of them is vaxed and the other I'm not sure. Both of those guys have a rough road ahead.
At any rate, We are taking ample amounts of Vitamin C, Zinc, Vitamin D, and using Tylenol or NyQuil as needed. Manageable so far. I have used an albuterol inhaler prophylactical due to Asthma that will kick up a couple times a year. We are up and moving multiple times a day and enjoying our almost completely redone back yard as much as possible.
If it starts to go south, I'll keep you posted.
In the mean time, anybody have a lead on the HQC Ivermectin supply? I really don't know if I'll need it or not, but it would be nice to have just because.
