hastingsmothmanHad I not taken a 2nd test I'd be none the wiser and probably passing it round unknowingly. The last time I knowingly had any cold/flu symptoms was 2018 over Xmas in Wales. I never knowingly had COVID during the <a href="https://mastodon.green/tags/pandemic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#pandemic</a>. I just never seem to get anything ever. But now I wonder how many asymptomatic colds, flu, Covid, folk catch and spread. We could be the cause of the stagnation of the economy, responsible for millions of lost sick days! 😅 [3/3]<a href="https://mastodon.green/tags/medicine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#medicine</a> <a href="https://mastodon.green/tags/vaccine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#vaccine</a> <a href="https://mastodon.green/tags/microbiology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#microbiology</a> <a href="https://mastodon.green/tags/cold" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#cold</a> <a href="https://mastodon.green/tags/flu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#flu</a>

hastingsmothmanAs he recovered some 5 days later, he took another test. He was still positive but feeling better. I was still feeling fine (sleeping/eating in another room/keeping apart as best we could) but took a test anyway.To my surprise I was also positive and still am 5 days later (my first positive test ever). Yet I had and still have absolutely no symptoms whatsoever - not even a sneeze. I feel normal and completely well.

Woohoo. <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/ProTip" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ProTip</a>: if you’re getting yours at a Walgreens with an appt. and you see a sign with a QR code to check in for your shot, don’t do that if you can avoid it.

TBC, the 811 agent was FAB once I got through. ❤️But, 811 has ~57 seconds worth of messages prior to being able to make ANY selections.Currently it is x3 for booking a covid vaccination.THEN, once in x3, you need to select x2 for booking (as x1 is 'for information about covid').A lovely intercept comes on to explain 'higher than usual call volumes' (you know, what every phone system ever has said pretty much for the last decade🙄) AND THEN sends you to on-hold music … only to most-likely have ANOTHER message intercept to let you know they're too busy and "goodbye." 😳😡Fastest redial and menu selections I could manage was every 2 minutes. Took 1 hour of redialling like this to get to the actual on-hold <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/queue" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#queue</a>, and was then another hour on-hold.If using a cellphone, make sure you have a powerbank/charger handy! 😬<a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/abhealth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#abhealth</a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/abpoli" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#abpoli</a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/yeg" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#yeg</a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/yyc" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#yyc</a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/yqf" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#yqf</a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/yqu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#yqu</a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/ymm" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ymm</a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/medhat" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#medhat</a>
