            Would a prophylactic dose of Sotrovimab be possible?

              Crap - sorry to hear this - hope he does a quick recovery - and you keep your own air supply until then.

                  That doesn't sound good.

                  Was the boy vaccinated?

                  What's your antibody status?

                  Any news?

                    Boy was vaccinated 2x Pfizer back in June. I still have antibodies from my October Moderna #2 but they fade with about a 30-day half-life. I’ll get Moderna 3 on Monday.

                    I had a negative antigen test yesterday.

                      Wow.

                      I assume it isn't easy to keep distance within a single home.

                      I hope J. will recover quickly.

                              As everybody has already said, stay as safe as you can, and hopefully you can get through this quickly and safely.

                              I was only joking

                                  He’s going for a rapid PCR today at 2:30. I’m fine he seems over it. I’m still avoiding him until I get a negative PCR from him. Monday at 2:30 I’ll have my 6th vaccine.

                                      I haven’t checked but I doubt it. I will have no trouble getting the one working monoclonal antibody treatment if I actually test positive and I know to do it early. Hopefully it won’t come to that.

                                        Nothing useful to add, (though we’ve had two nasty respiratory virus go through our house lately that, according to multiple tests, are not Covid), anyway - thinking about you and hoping it’s not Covid!

                                          He was PCR negative today. It’s either gone or the 12/26 test was a false positive. The former is more likely, the home test he used has a 98+% specificity, 86%. IOW, false positives are much less common than false negatives, by 7-10x.
