    Maybe he didn't get it at work. The stuff is highly contagious.

    We had a family in the community that got together for Thanksgiving. Not a large gathering, just twelve people. One person was in the very early stages and thought she had a case of the allergy sniffles.

    Eight out of twelve were positive in a week.

          Good to here! I was reading yesterday about all of the ancillary infections people are picking up after this crap. Nasty stuff.

            We’ve been living with it in our house for over a week now and (serious knock on wood here) and Karla and I have been fine. I am rather astonished and figuring either asymptomatic infections (will be tested shortly), our vitamin regimen worked, or divine intervention.

              @LuFins-Dad it took me almost 14 days of taking care of Steve (who tested positive) before I developed a fever (and I was quarantined so no interaction with anyone else). Separate bedrooms and bathrooms, but I took his temp and O2 levels, and made him food and cleaned constantly, but I was not wearing a mask.

                FFS Swabbed at 3:30, Doctor said if it came back clean I could go to work this weekend. Called at 4:45 since it takes an hour... Nurse: “we need another 30 minutes... We’re open till 5:30, don’t worry, we’ll call”. At 5:28 I call and am on hold by the automated system. I get a call from the office on the other line. Switch over and they hang up. Call them back immediately and get “The office is now closed”... Now I have to go to Walgreens at O Dark Thirty in the morning and get swabbed again. I’m starting to feel like the deck of the USS Constitution.

                  Usually the office has an after hours pager number, no?

                      @jon-nyc Thisnoffice has you leave a number for on call Doctor unless it’s an out and out right emergency. I left a message but am not optimistic on getting a call back.

                      Finding a 1 hour testing site isn’t going well, either.

                                    6,000 in liquid every day the last week. Plus I’ve been doing a Berocca every day plus 2000 C and a Zinc lozenge or two every day.

                                    When COVID isn’t in the house, it’s typically 2000 IU of D and a Berocca.

                                      Good stuff. I wonder if that has helped keep it at bay.

                                      I’m on 2000IU also of straight D plus more from my calcium pills.

                                        I wouldn’t want to take that much on a regular basis, but I figured it would be safe enough for a couple of weeks.

                                        Berocca has been my favorite find through all of this.

                                          I have certain mineral deficiencies because of transplant meds. My vitamin D and calcium habits predate Covid by 4 years. I take an ungodly amount of magnesium just to keep my levels (tested monthly) normal.
