[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So when is this thing going to hit?  Late May?[/quote]

It's already hitting. Our school has had a sharp uptick in cases over the last 2-3 weeks. I tested positive today despite being careful and triple vaxed. BA.2 is extremely contagious.[/quote]

Sorry about that. Could you share your symptoms?[/quote]

Started with a scratchy throat yesterday (tested negative), otherwise felt ok. Woke up this morning with a scratchier/hoarse throat and a little upper respiratory congestion, plus some heavy phlegm feeling in my upper chest just below throat. Head feels slightly “loopy” like I’ve had a drink, but otherwise ok. Stomach is a little sensitive and I’ve had several less than solid bms. [/quote]

Waiting on pcr results as this is how everyone in my household has felt for two days[/quote]

I hope it resolves quickly for you. The heavy phlegm just below the throat is how covid felt for me in late December. I thought it was odd.[/quote]

Thanks. How long did it last for you? Timing absolutely sucks for us, as my kids spring break is next week, but nothing I can do at this point other than isolate and hope the rest of the family doesn’t get sick. [/quote]

Not long. I felt bad for maybe 2 days but just needed more sleep after that. Both my kids got it too, but each had a sore throat for maybe half a day and like me needed more sleep. My husband got it first and stayed sicker longer, maybe 8 days of coughing and congestion. [/quote]
