Exactly. We really learned who the boot kissing lemmings are. I recall my first plague pt, a 20 male from residential living, legit sick. Leaving ER, heard police radio talking about Rita's water ice. Right before lock downs, folks were still out. Some cunt Karen called 911 for cops, folks apparently were not socially distancing.

The cops response to dispatch? "Clear it county, I'm not doing that job, not my problem".
 
Day 3 - Other than this sore throat, it’s a cold with very light body ache. Oxygen levels are staying in the mid 90’s, (I bought one of those finger thingys) Stuffy nose, low grade fever. Staying ahead of symptoms as best I can with revolving cocktail of Sudafed, Tylenol, and Advil. Supplementing with EmerginC and ColdEze. Girl friend is a freaking maniac rockstar. She gave up her holiday weekend with friends and instead spent the better part of Sat/Sun cooking for me. Homemake chicken noodle soup, potato soup, tupperware bowls full of fresh cut fruit, on and on. Plus she introduced me to cucumber infused water…good stuff!

I’d say I almost felt normal if not for the sore throat. Cannot get ahead of the pain. I’ve been gargling a bit with salt water and then following up with a tablespoon of honey, but damn…

I have 4 Oxy left from my kidney-stone last year…I keep staring at the fucking bottle…seems a bit overkill for a sore throat though.

Good to hear you're doing better. Stay away from the Oxys. It only numbs the brain a short time and it's back again. You're doing what is needed.
 
Pop the pills, it will give you some relief and get some rest. There is a reason you kept them this long and it was not to throw them down the toilet. Better living through modern chemistry

Tip them down the sink man. You don’t need Oxys for a sore throat. In the words of me “stop being a bitch”
 
I've fought a sinus infection now for about 2 months. 1 course of abx barely made a dent, so I go back to the doc's.

At check-in, and I know those folks aren't medical anything, the lady says "oh, you're here for a sinus infection, congestion, blah, blah." Not 2 minutes later she asks if I have any COVID symptoms like...congestion, runny nose, sore throat...."

Um, what?

"No, ma'am."

"You're all checked in."

Fucking hell, whatever. The MA calls me back to the exam room. "What are we seeing you for?" Sinus infection for 8 weeks, congestion, runny nose, sore throat, cough from the drainage. "Okay. Do you have any COVID symptoms such as..."


"No, ma'am."

Fucking retarded, ain't it. Maria's dad is in hospital. Colon infection, SIRs. He's doing better.

At hospital now. In lobby, they use tongs to pass out fresh masks, security, not medical professional, asks if we have plague symptoms or been around anyone with it (me, work), um, no.

It's like fucking checkpoint Charlie at the Berlin wall, showing ID to go to room 114. This ain't ever going away.
