    The boy got it, we think. Symptoms and positive home test. Couldn’t get a PCR for love or money and his pediatrician said there are so many cases now we should assume the positive is accurate and not take him out. Symptoms started Saturday and have been lightening over time. Sunday he was a giant ball of mucus. Now he’s down to sniffles.

    I have been keeping my distance.

        Yes, keep your distance.

        Hopefully you can all feel a little safer when he gets through it.

          Wow.

          Hopefully it's a nothing, but if it is....as @bachophile says, stay away.

          Keep us posted.

            Steer as clear as possible. Easy to say, trickier to do.

            Hope all resolves well.

                      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.

                          Hoping for a quick recovery for the boy, and that you’ve managed to dodge this close call.

                            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
