The vaccine must be working
-
We were both vaccinated in Jan / Feb this year. We had the Pfizer variation. Over the past three weeks we were both very much exposed to two sick family members who later tested positive. One was my grandson that we drove home from school, after he developed a fever and started feeling poorly. On the way home he sneezed and coughed all over the car's interior. The other was our adult daughter, who lives with us. We are unavoidably in contact with her every day. I started worrying that we may be positive, so we had the test this morning. The testing lab reported that we were both negative. YES!! :thumbsup: I credit the vaccine with our good fortune in avoiding Covid so far! The two family members appear to be slowly getting better.
Get me coffee and no one gets hurt!
Excellent! :thumbsup: We do Rapid Lateral Flow Tests twice a week (and Herself has a PCR* every week as she works in an old folks home) and they've all come back negative so far. The NHS will let me order a pack of 7 tests for free every day, and the are delivered within 24 hours. Which is nice. The tests still kick in my gag reflex every time though ... * Polymerase Chain Reaction - results in two days as opposed to the 20 minutes of the RLF but less false positives.

Excellent news - both about yourselves and about your family members. Wishing a speedy recovery to both of them.

Does she still work there Paul ? I would have thought she'd have packed it in after the crap she's been through

I had the gagging issue too, but the set most recently delivered asks you to do both nostrils rather than one nostril and tonsils. It's a lot more user friendly and the result is in 15 minutes rather than 30.

I'm glad she's still able to work. From other things you'd said I feared she might not have been healthy enough to work. Although I suppose an old folks home wouldn't have any trouble refilling her O2 bottles too. :sigh:
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason? Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful? --Zachris Topelius
