[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m seeing a lot of COVID positives at work and in my social circle just from late last week/this weekend. I hadn’t heard of anyone with COVID since January, and now I know about 3-4 people with it. [/quote] Any info on initial symptoms? I have felt like I had sinus infection over weekend and hot today but no fever. Home test negative. [/quote] For my dh and dc1, it started with chills. Dc2 started with a sore throat. They had fevers within 12-24 hours from first symptoms. [/quote] Do you know how high the fevers were? I tend to run cool like 97.4 so I am hot but I'm only at 98.8.[/quote] Dh was around 100.8, dc1 was 101.5-102.2 and dc2 was 100.5-101.5. Their fevers broke a couple of times and came back and broke again. After 48 hours, they had normal temps. They were all extremely tired during the fever stage and couldn't get out of bed/off the couch. This is exactly one week since dh's first symptom and I woke up with a sore throat. Home tests are negative.[/quote] So “home tests are negative”, in which case they likely have something else. Not every cold is covid, there are still other things you can and will get sick with. Our immune systems had a break for the last 2 years and now we’re all getting sick again. That isn’t a big deal for most. [/quote] Pcrs were positive.[/quote] Ha PP. In my circles of pretty COVID cautious people, many people are getting "colds" that are, in fact, COVID as confirmed by testing. This is in contrast to the fall when everyone seemed to have a cold and no one was testing positive for COVID. I guess it speaks to the higher transmissibility of this variant. [/quote]
