There are several people out at school With Covid.
I found that I had over 101 degree F temp.when I got home. So this may be more than a cold.
My student is out until next Tuesday. He has covid, so does his dad and many at his daycare.
I am not going to work tomorrow at all. I will get a covid test again. Yuck. Odd way to end a month.

Got it. I actually have some "Emergencee" on hand. I do not like how it tastes but I am sure it is good for me. On the other hand, chicken soup is "the bomb" with garlic and sage and black pepper etc.

Oh, how I hate to hear that! Please rest and take care of yourself! I took zinc when I had covid, and it seemed to help. Prayers for a quick and complete recovery for you!

I take couple of supplements that have zinc in them. I am pleased to find out, after all the swabbing, that I only have a common cold, which is uncommon for me. I will get it out of the way and do better.

I was tested three times, with two different tests and the conclusion was that it was a common cold.

@GardenGerty I think that's a very good idea when there are so many positive cases nearby.

Oh no not the best way to welcome September. Hydrate yourself and take vitamins. Rest as much as you can. And do update us.

I was tested several times and we finally did come up with the fact that I just have a nasty cold.

My doctor did a "full respiratory panel" and the only think I have is human rhino virus--in other words a common cold.

@GardenGerty A common cold is an annoyance and it takes some days to get well. Take care.

It is following the pattern of a general common cold. They usually last a week to ten days.
