[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I didn't know people were still testing for this anymore. It's 2024, not 2021. It's endemic. We don't isolate anymore and nobody masks. There's no point.[/quote]

My god it wouldn’t even occur to me to test! Both my kids were sick a few weeks ago and I thought maybe flu, maybe a bad cold or virus and truly Covid didn’t even cross my mind. Stop testing for this bullshit!!!! [b]Just stay home[/b] and rest up and resume normal life when you’re better the way it always was. It’s not 2021. I get a very very strange and distinct headache whenever I have Covid that tells me I have it. Otherwise I would never think of it again. [/quote]

It's fine if you're actually going to do this, but many people don't.  It's certainly not bullshit for a lot of people who can die from it, you self centered shrew.[/quote]

To address the OP's point, most people, even with the best of intentions, aren't going to be able to isolate for 7-10 days when they are feeling better but still testing positive. The world isn't set up that way. There are too many demands - work, school, family, that make isolation for such a long time impossible. The benefit of testing if you have people in your life that are especially vulnerable is that provides information to make decisions like continuing to mask, opening windows, and avoiding social visits, especially with vulnerable people. We all understand that some people don't care about anyone else, but for those who do, COVID is still a thing. [/quote]
