    It's a great example as to why masking isn't just paranoia, even at this stage.

    And some of us here are familiar with you. I know you're not what you say you and yours feel like. Sucks, of course, but mask up, feel better and hope no one got it.

    My husband has it. I flew up north to pick up the 2 grandkids and granddaughters friend. (Really cool, I get off the plane, meet kids and hop right on the same plant to take immediate flight home. Saves 600$, the cost for the 3 of them to fly unattended. Oldest is 14) So we have a great, great time. I fly them back on Monday and Tuesday morning hubby tests positive. A few days later I test...Prognosis Negative, lol. Yesterday, it's been a week and still same test results. He feels good, slight cold symptoms. Has also been on a couple 15 mile bike rides so he seems to be doing ok. I am starting to wonder if I am one of those people that have a really hard time getting it...just jinxed it. We were in the car together, slept side by side before we knew he had it. We are now wearing masks in the house unless we are in different rooms.

    The hardest thing is telling the people that you were with. Including my niece who has had breast cancer and has been extremely careful. So far so good with everyone.
    The next issue is what I have been trying to avoid. We had 2 more guests scheduled at our condo, and we had to let them know that he had covid and would be helping with the cleaning. Young couple from nc did not care and possible trumper (most of the people coming to the Myrtle Beach area are) older couple did not care. If this was during the extra busy time, it would have been a huge problem telling more people and the extra time to wipe things down.
    Funny thing, condo is on the 10th floor and we parked on the second floor to avoid as much interaction as possible. The times that we did run into people, as soon as the door opened, we advised that one of us had covid. Probably ran into 20 people over 4 days and none of them got on with us. Of course they had no masks on so they weren't that interested in being careful. I though it was interesting that most of these people downplayed covid but when they had a chance to be next to someone that they knew for sure had it, they were scared.

    You know how your phone switches time zones automatically when flying cross country? I spent 3 days in Lousianna from an east coast state, and every day I got an alert to sign in to LA state contract tracing. Have any of you cross country travelers experienced that same level of care?
