Back with a vengeance today thought was to good to be true, really struggling again today feel shi+, snotty nose all bunged up and light headed with head and eye pain again
Sorry to hear that mate, I've heard of quite a few people with it around here again at the moment !! What with that, the usual winter colds and the StrepA virus going around the hospitals and doctors are full to bursting again

I hope you and the family are all feeling better soon mate

Thanks Buster
Lisa only tested positive for 4 days and just felt like she had a head cold with a few added aches and pains, at the moment I'm still testing negative so hopefully I'll miss it this time


On the theme from the comments on your China post to show how different organisations etc are handling covid now Lisa was quite rightly unable to go work even in an admin only capacity due to working at a doctor's but my sister law had covid after Christmas but was told if she didn't work she wouldn't be paid, she works as an HCA in a care home


My son in law was also told the same when he had it before Christmas, he works in a supermarket !!!
I know people don't even have to test now so will never know if they have it or not but due to rising numbers again they are advising people who have cold like symptoms to wear masks in busy places again to relieve pressure on doctors and hospitals.

Silly at best rules should be uniform all over, seen on the net this morning they are advising to wear gloves when fueling up

Good luck Trev. You really don't want it again. Although the fact that you have had it and recovered means your body developed antibodies against it, or you would still be sick.
Using gloves when filling your car is not a silly idea, you never know who has touched that pump nozzle.

Wasn't saying silly that was in relation to what Trev was saying about payments at work, I always sanitise when filling car up or in shops etc always have done since first outbreak of covid, I even tend to open doors where I think no-one else has touched the handle but still sanitise
