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.

That's not the best news you could have. Vince is in bed with a bad cold too at the moment. There isn't supposed to be any covid here for him to catch but he might end up getting tested anyway.

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

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

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