• COVID

    From Sean Dennis@618:618/1 to All on Sun Sep 3 16:52:50 2023
    Hello All,

    5 AM Friday morning, I was taken by ambulance to the emergency room with a flaming case of COVID-19. This new variant is particularly unpleasant with a 101+F fever, severe coughing, nausea, projective vomiting...the works. Thankfully I was precribed an antiviral along with a few supporting meds.

    Today, after three feverish days, I was able to wake up, shower, and have a small meal. Then I noticed how I trashed my apartment while feverish.

    I'll be taking it easy this week.

    Right now, I feel like I have a massive head cold with the coughing and constant coingestion in my head.

    I've done that myself. Back when I was single.

    I'll be taking it easy this week.

    It's going around our work place. Of course I was offered a promotion
    (and accepted) for an office position right when this new variant hits. lol

    Quite sure the guy I share an office with has covid, but he refuses to get
    a test as he is afraid he won't be able to work. lol
