I tested positive this morning, Mrs WmA still negative but it seems pretty clear that she's got it too. Not feeling too bad tbh, just generally crappy plus a cough. Probably brought back by our son from work where he has delivery drivers going through his office every day, but not much he can do about it.<br /> <br /> Still a huge number of cases here, hospitals overcrowded etc. but you'd never know from the meeja. As far as the govt and their meeja cheerleaders go, the whole Johnson response was a howling success and there's no Covid here now.</div> <div class="message_footer"> <div class="message_footer_links"><a href="lpost.php?webtag=DEFAULT&reply_to=42905.3&return_msg=42905.1" class="reply"><span class="image post"></span>Reply</a></div> <div class="message_vote_form" data-msg="42905.3"> <span class="rating">0/0</span> <span class="image vote vote_down vote_down_off" title="Vote Down"></span> <span class="image vote vote_up vote_up_off" title="Vote Up"></span> </div> </div> </div><a name="a42905_4"></a><div class="message" id="message_42905_4"> <div class="message_header"> <div class="message_from"> From: CHYRON (DSMITHHFX)<span class="message_time">19 Sep 2022 15:21</span> <div class="clearer"></div> </div><div class="message_to">To: william (WILLIAMA) <span><span class="image post_read" title="Read: 19 Sep 2022 17:09"></span></span> <span class="message_count">4 of 10</span><div class="clearer"></div> </div> </div> <div class="message_links"> <a href="lmessages.php?webtag=DEFAULT&msg=42905.4">42905.4</a> In reply to <a href="lmessages.php?webtag=DEFAULT&msg=42905.1#a42905_3" target="_self">42905.3</a></div> <div class="message_body"> The hospital situation here is pretty dire.

Can't remember if I posted about it on Teh. The morning after I tested positive, I fainted twice and was ambulanced to hospital.

Haven't had it before, except as a child on a parade ground in Pakistan (so go figure).
