Covid comes to the SK household
-
Mr. SK returned from Japan a few days ago not feeling super great and then yesterday was sure he was getting a cold. Today I got one of those OTC test kits and it says he has Covid.
Neither of us has ever had Covid before. Ah well, it was a nice run.
He’s not feeling super bad so far. And he got the vaccine (as did I), so hopefully it will run its course and stay mild throughout.
Now let’s see if I get it. Since yesterday we’ve been sleeping in separate rooms and masking when we’re in the same space. But for the first two days he was home, we didn’t do any of those precautions. Time will tell.

You’ve done all the right things as far as vaxxing. Wishing Mr. SK a mild case, and hoping you don’t get it!

Oh no. I hope Mr. SK gets over it quickly with no long term effects. Hoping you don't get it as well.
It reminds me I need to make an appointment tomorrow for this year's covid vaccine. Got my flu shot last week and felt sluggish for 3 or 4 days afterwards.

@Bernard thank you!
Fortunately we both got the flu and Covid vaccines already (in mid-Sept I believe).
I am supposed to go to a conference on Friday, Thursday and Saturday are to be the travel days, my colleague is driving. I’ll contact him today to consult.
As I see it, the options are: 1) don’t go. 2) go and wear a mask in the car. 3) go and we both wear a mask in the car (if I go, this would be my preference). Presuming I don’t get sick of course.
Ugh, what a hassle, this is kind of an important trip. I really do not want to miss it, but I would hate to make him sick, or get sick while there, or have Mr SK get worse while I’m away…
This is why I’ve spent 6 years masking, is to avoid situations like this.
Phooey.
