So many people are getting it, including a lot for the first time who are super careful and wear masks (that i know irl and online). I presumably have it, all the symptoms but haven’t tested positive despite being on day 6
Please do everything you can to protect yourself and others
yup i got it for the first time recently, sucked ass. fwiw i used an instant test as soon as i had symptoms and it came back positive.
I had it for the first time about a month ago. Shit sucks. I would like to never have that happen again.
I was going to go to a really cool event tomorrow but after what happened to my BF and several of my friends staying home after being exposed- I’m going to pass.
It stinks, but I am grateful that I have the privilege to stay home.
If you have symptoms and the covid test is negative, try swabbing your throat. .
If you do test positive, get paxlovid.
And it’s probably a good idea to get anti virus nasal sprays, on top of masking. I’m alternating between covixyl and betadine.
It may not prevent infection entirely, but it will likely reduce viral load, and may help clear the virus faster. And if you have symptoms test before you use them.
The nasal sprays are a great idea, thanks for that! Out of curiosity, how often do you use them? Once daily?
I’m running out tomorrow to stock up on tests, I might have it as I’ve been feeling a bit off, but not like when I tested positive last September so hopefully not.
