You don’t make everyone sick.


Exactly. Jesus people. Why are all these threads about whether or not you should go to Thanksgiving when you’re sick? Covid or cold, nobody wants it. Stay home.

Go get tested at a Curative, you'll have results in like 12 hours.

+1

This should be automatic by now.

And he might be better by Thurs or Friday (assuming it's not covid and he doesn't have a fever).


Just mask up.

Sorry OP. Grab a fresh, pre brined turkey at TJ first thing in morning, and a disposable tray with handles and box of turkey bags at Safeway. You will need flour for bag, cornstarch for gravey. Good luck.

So sorry, OP. The rapid test isn’t a bad idea.

I’m sorry, OP. Last month my husband had to miss my baby sister’s wedding (he’s known her since she was seven) because my son had a bad cold. My grandparents were going to be at the wedding and there was just no way to bring my son.

Would you be comfortable settling for a covid rapid test? I’d be so bummed to miss thanksgiving over a cold too.

We missed Halloween. I ordered four great costumes for myself, husband and two kids and was so looking forward to Halloween after it pretty much being canceled last year. Toddler and baby got colds.

A commiseration/vent thread. Kid came home from daycare today with a cold. My parents arrived at my sister's house today and we were supposed to meet up tomorrow, but of course I've told them not to come and given toddler colds, I expect we'll be stuck at home without seeing family until the weekend.

At least I already had the PTO scheduled?
