Coworkers wife was exposed and got a fever. She got tested twice both negative. He goes to get tested to be safe the same day she did but at another location. They take over a week to get him results but he feels fine no symptoms just waiting for results to come back to work. Nope, he's supposedly positive.

Two of my coworkers were exposed to it in Houston. The one in SC is home, sicker than a dog. The one in Illannoy is awaiting test results. I already refused to do a job in Miami. Harold was pissed at me at first, but now with 2/3 of the field staff laid up and him being in contact with the SC guy, he thinks it was the right call.

My father in law tested positive yesterday, so the wife and I were tested today. Should have results Monday.
- I will be on my way to a job site in Oklahoma when I get the results on Monday.

My Denver coworkers’ daughter is a nurse and has been tested after exposure to it from a couple of friends who just tested positive.
I wasn’t feeling all that well, myself, Thursday morning. Turns out I was hungover.

I got my test results at 5am today and I am beer virus positive.
- there goes my work trip to Oklahoma and any other road trip for a few weeks. - I dont feel that bad. Fever has stayed under 100. I have a cough, but it is not bad enough that I would visit the doctor. - Fortunately, I can work from home and take pto when I feel too bad. - I have not notified my doctor yet. I took the beer virus test at an urgent care. He will probably just tell me to drink plenty of fluids, get plenty of rest and lose 30 pounds. - I will keep you guys posted on all the excitement.

Mrs Bender got a positive test result last night. Her fever and cough are much worse than mine. We are one big happy covid family now.

Our doctor was more sympathetic to Mrs Bender than me. After a virtual office visit, he phoned in a prescription for an inhaler, medrose pack and this benzoate or other stuff that is supposed to numb the pharinyx. We did not fill the benzoate because my wife had suffered some tuff side effects last time.
-She is feeling better already.

So here we go.... My good friends and neighbors travel a lot. While we are "stay home folks", but they are always in a plane. Retired, young-ish (late 50's) and have friends and family all over the states and globe.
Early February, they came back from visiting their daughter in West Virginia. We partied when they got home, bbq'd, big hugs, bonfire, etc.... Then about a week after getting home, they both got violently ill. Fever, sinuses, respiratory, the runs, etc.... Bad cough that lasted for weeks, They steered clear of us due to all my health issues. Then...about a week later, I got sick. Not as bad as them. Fever, chest congestion, sinus crap....the usual. I ate a lot of Emergen-C, zinc, tons of vitamin C, and gallons of water, like I usually do. Being five years on oral chemo, I take no chances. So, two weeks ago, they take the Covid anti-body test. Come to find out, they tested positive. At this point, having "underlying health conditions", I contacted my Dr. and asked for the anti-body test. I got some blood sucked the next day. All was good. Well, hoping I'd have this behind me, the test came up negative for Covid-19 antibodies. Apparently....I had just got some bug that was going around when I had my fever and screwed up lungs. Dammit. I was really hoping I'd already taken this ride and was in the clear. Back to living in a shell..... Fortunately, I live in the sticks and our local bubble is very small.

My girl and I both had it, 4 and half weeks of hell for me, 5 and a half for her. Although the coughing and chest congestion was bad, the worst part was fighting the fever and the headache that wouldn't go away. Well we survived as I think most folks do. But now 2 months later I'm fighting another bad head and chest cold. There's no fever or headache, just sinus congestion, sore throat, and really bad coughing and chest congestion. Cousin Jay's girlfriend gave it to him and then he gave it to me in a chess game, and I in turn gave it to my girlfriend and my cleaning lady. But Jay and his lady both tested negative for the beer virus and this bug seems to last only 8 to 10 days.
