So my kids’ basketball league just pushed the start of the season (games) back 3 weeks because Covid but is still allowing teams to use the very same gym for practices as regularly scheduled for the entire month of January because you know that makes perfect sense.

My wife seems to be over all symptoms except for fatigue. She says it comes and goes throughout the day, unlike any virus she’s had before.
I tested again a day or two ago and was still negative.
Spike, if you had tested positive what would you be doing differently? For the sake of this conversation, what would you be doing differently for the next week.
Assuming you feel exactly the same regardless of positive or negative result.
Not a whole lot. I’m masking around the patients, and sleeping in the guest room - so wouldn’t be a point to those if I was also positive. I went to the grocery store for the first time today, since I’m still asymptomatic and the girls are supposedly past their infection window.
So there’s no reason for you to get tested.
Sure there is. If I test positive, I’ll know when to start my quarantine, and also if I should get a PCR test on the books so we can travel to see my wife’s family abroad in the coming months.
So wait, is it “not a whole lot” or is it “quarantine”?
why don't you just let me know what you're after here, bammer.

Smartphones are the worst. Airplanes are the worst. Everything is just the worst.

If you’ve flown on a plane in the past year, you’ve flown with someone who had Covid at the time.

I think I saw that video on a weird channel that had different programming at different times of day. I was expecting K-drama and this showed up. I think the juxstaposition is why it stuck with me.
I hope North Carolina has a somewhat cooler official anthem.

For shot continuity they use other shirts for spinning around their heads. The practical requirements of shooting a video won out.
That said, there were extras spinning around shirts at random times. Is this Checkoff's shirt? If a spare white shirt is in hand during a music video shoot, it will be spun at one point?

Woke up congested, so I took a rapid test and it came up positive. Surprised it took this long, considering rest of the house has it.

Bummer, sorry. I guess you were maybe expecting it though, yeah?

So if you have three shots and survived catching Omicron (assuming it was Omicron) are you sitting pretty or still doomed?

Yeah, not shocked. One year olds are walking Petri dishes.

I saw a small study that showed evidence of like a 2000% boost in antibodies in that scenario, but it hasn’t been peer reviewed.
