Tests and more tests

I am getting tired of this, now it is my husband and my son that need to be tested for covid. My husband is a teacher and some students in his school tested positive. My son has a colleague that is also positive, now all the class will be tested. I scheduled both tests for tomorrow. Both are well and I believe their tests will come negative. The numbers are higher for covid in my country but more than 90% only have mild symptoms. Are the numbers in your country high too?

Yes, very high. But most people are still not treating Covid like something to worry about. *shrug* People are weird.

@nela13 A lot of people here have never used masks. They just don't care.

I think it is because of those people that the numbers are so high, people don't worry and relax the use of masks.

@LadyDuck Now we are vaccinated so, supposedly, if we get infected we won't have the severe disease and I think the governments are counting on this.

The covid numbers here are terrible the past few weeks. We are in a 3-week restriction circuit breaker and are %half way thru. The numbers continue to rise, so I do not think that they have managed anything during this time. I hope that your family tests negatively.

Despite the high numbers there aren't as many restrictions as before which is insane.

The numbers in my country are not too high but I don't believe it reflects the true number. So I don't follow the numbers anymore. Since I live next to a hospital, I get to know that many people are suffering from covid.

@nela13 Yes. They lost count and some covid cases go unnoticed. At the same time, those with asthma and pneumonia have been confused to have covid.

@mildredtabitha You are right on that, many other diseases are being confused with covid, if people don't do the tests it is impossible to say.

Yes, the number of cases in my country's capital is increasing, maybe this is a new variant that is easily contagious and most of them have mild symptoms. Covid is very disturbing the activities of everyone in the world even students find it difficult to receive their material because of covid, this will definitely affect the world in the future.

@Chakimmm Only after the other groups receive it, there are many people all over the world, especially those who live in poor countries that had no access to the vaccines, that is completely unacceptable.
