I’ve been sick with a horrendous flu since Christmas Day. TLDR, it was "just" a bad flu.
I called the BC public health line at 811 on the 3rd evening of being sick, the nurse recommended that I get a COVID test. The next morning (yesterday) I went to the drive through at VCC and got tested with the saline mouth gargle. They didn’t test Rachael because she didn’t have symptoms. This was shortly after 9am.
By 9:30pm, I got an SMS notice that my test was negative. What a relief.
I did a log of my interactions, working backwards:
Brooke and our shared office space is part of my bubble. On the 21st, obviously I had lots of interactions with different people, but all were wearing masks and/or 6ft away.
Of note: I got really chilled and wet out in the rain on the 21st. Then, on the 23rd, I again got really cold waiting in line outside Rio. And, in general, coming off a bunch of work and "relaxing", so I guess my system hit the wall and collapsed.
