If you're not masking the LEAST you can do is test/get tested for COVID-19 if you are having cold or flu symptoms.

The ABSOLUTE LEAST.

There are a lot of "it's just a cold/allergies" people giving COVID to people like me. 😷

Don't be a selfish prick.
AND...
STAY THE FUCK HOME IF YOU ARE SICK!

Check with your insurance company, many pay for testing.

Some offer reimbursement for home tests.

No insurance: check with your local public health department.

ps: home kits are FSA eligible

FYI: when a new COVID-19 variant appears, test makers run their test against it.

Beware of misleading headlines saying current variants give a false neg.

MOST false negatives are human error.

READ THE INSTRUCTIONS FULLY.

Swabbing throat before nares increases likelihood of catching a +.

I have ZERO tolerance for mis/disinformation replies.

You do NOT come on to my spout regurgitating headlines.

I'm sick with COVID and have ZERO FUCKS to give.

After taking a screen shot, I am deleting your bullshit take.

And do NOT tell ME about who can't afford to stay home when sick!

No paycheck come Friday.

I'm still pissed off about the "but some people can't afford to stay home when they're sick" nonsense.

Hello! Hi! *points at self*

I did everything right. I blamed myself for a while. Where did I fuck up?

I didn't fuck up. The contagious person at work did.

It's hard to tell with the weather. 😂 Caffeine loading at the moment. Still looking like a solid couch day.

Thanks for asking! ❤️

My offspring went out of state to Granny's and were exposed to Covid. BC of strict masking, testing, and a strict quarantine of everyone in our house for two whole effing weeks I can confidently say we didn't spread it. Only 1 of us got it. WE HAVE THE TOOLS, WE JUST NEED TO USE THEM.

Never stopped masking -- hub is a hospital doc. We mask everywhere inside that's not our home, and outside if it's crowded. We live in Brooklyn and we'll never forget 2020. We're always cautious, and we've been lucky too.

I'm sorry you're sick. I hope your course is easy and short.

I don't go anywhere except work and the store. Most of my groceries are delivered.

I wear KN95 whenever indoors and don't do outside crowds.

This is my first infection, and I'm pissed.

Most likely got it at work where they ask why I'm still masking.

5 shots. Feels like flu w/o cough.

Reading headlines only, one would think that the tests don't cover current variants. Reading full article, test failure is most often human error.

Current variants come up +

Still masking over here! I'm never going back. I still can't believe how we used to breathe in people's funk all the time like it was no big deal.

I live in Southern California, and I follow the numbers and activity from the CDC. I started masking last week, and yesterday at Trader Joe's I saw a couple more. I live in an area with a bunch of FOX watchers so they never mask.
