I'm still recovering from my COVID-19 infection. Let me tell you, Bob, as a healthy 35 year old with no pre-existing conditions, this sucks. It knocked me on my ass for about 8 straight days and I've had symptoms for over 2 weeks now. Sore throat and congestion aren't going away yet. Hopefully soon.
I have been incredibly vigilant. Back in March I didn't leave my house for 6 weeks straight except to go to the grocery store twice. But when I realized the rest of the country wasn't locking down, I had to choose if I wanted to get on with my life or not. I still wore a mask 100% of the time indoors, and wouldn't go to any establishment unless there was safe outdoor seating. The one concession I was making was band practice. Music is my life, after all (it's why I follow you!) My bandmate never took this seriously. He's a gym rat. His entire gym leans right and listens to Joe "masks are for pussies" Rogan. Well, needless to say, his entire gym got infected.
I wore a mask during practice, but he refused to. Singing in a small room turns out to be a great way to spread it. My mask protected them from me but not me from them. The drummer and I both got infected by our singer. The drummer then infected his wife and daughter. But because I wore a mask everywhere, socially distanced, and only went to outdoor establishments, none of the 5 people I interacted with in the next two days before I knew I was sick became infected themselves. Masks work. We need a national mask mandate (and I consider myself a libertarian!)
Stay safe, Bob.
