TWO YEARS

[singedsun]

I am COVID positive. My friend and their partner both tested positive today also. So much for going out with friends. I'm very blessed that I've made it this long without catching it, and that this just feels like a super bad cold and not something much worse.

I worked yesterday but took today off to sleep. Right now I feel okay, but it kind of goes in and out so who knows how I'll feel tomorrow. I'm hoping this passes quickly.

Noooooooo! Ugh, my commiseration... It feels a bit like a joke in bad taste, doesn't it, to catch it now after suspending life for two years and shielding from everything... I had my brush with it in February and cast a stink-eye heavenwards for the grotesquerie.

I do hope you won't have a hard time. Sleep lots, drink lots. Hope it'll be over soon!

It does, I feel like every time I tell someone it should be accompanied by a goofy selfie. Like it's something so ridiculous, catching it after everyone's started saying the pandemic is over.

[liriaen]

Ah, that… I actually think it’s far from over. It’s just The Man who wants us back at the grindstone, back to consuming, who propagandises it’s „over“. So, no reason on that end to feel bad, none at all.

Damn! That really sucks. :( Fingers crossed that it will be mild and not last long!

[singedsun]

It has been fairly mild thankfully. Just feels like a bad cold I want to sleep through. In fact if my friend hadn't texted me they'd tested positive, I probably wouldn't have taken the test at all and just assumed that's what it was.

[honigfrosch]

That's a silver lining at least. Again, all the well-wishes <3

The possibility of having COVID without knowing does worry me, I mean not just for myself but in general, because many mandates that were in place for protection are now getting loosened or removed altogether (less wearing of masks, less mandatory testing etc). The global response to this ongoing pandemic is just... it's hard to have faith in humanity sometimes.

Oh no :( Hope it passes you all swiftly and gently.

shiiiit. here's hoping it passes you by quickly and without lasting effects.

[lavenderspark]

Oh no! I hope it doesn't give you too much trouble and you can recover quickly.

[necrophilia]

I'm sorry to hear that! Wishing you a speedy recovery.

[lightbird]

Oh no, I'm so sorry. I hope you feel better soon and that it's a mild case.

[impala_chick]

Oh no :( Glad the symptoms are relatively mild so far.

[domluver]

Oh no! I hope it's not terrible and you're able to rest up.
