Hi Amy! Happy Holidays and hope you’re feeling better. I honestly find it scary and concerning that you feel the need to explain yourself to such extent to your viewers. Firstly, it is absolutely no one’s business, secondly, I think it is toxic for anyone to think they are entitled to explanations. It makes me realize how emotionally abusive watchers and subscribers can be, and I feel for you. We live in times of a global pandemic and it is inevitable that each and one of us will contact covid one way or another. Please don’t feel like you ever have to explain yourself. Sending you love and hope you feel better❤️

Getting COVID at this point isn’t a moral failing. So many people are saying that they have done everything they should have and still got it and feel bad and they shouldn’t. Public health isn’t equal to morality. (I also recommend getting vaccinated and boosted.)

Omicron came up really fast on all of us. I went to a holiday party a week ago and then two days later realized what a bad idea that was when people started testing positive. Can't believe I even went. Then I didn't want to tell anyone I'd been to the party, but wanted to share that I knew covid was spreading in our circles. Long story short it's important to share covid status so people know how much it's spreading. Thanks for being open. Not a moral issue at this point, just reality and people need to stay engaged with it.

It’s so interesting. When I tested positive, I had no clue how I even got it and I was still working from home at that point. But as I’ve gone back to work and as a nurse I’ve been exposed to known Covid positive people many times and haven’t tested positive from any of those 🤨 I also lost my sense of taste, took a couple months to come back. Covid is so easily transmissible and most people I know have gotten it at least once, some more. It happens! Glad you’re feeling better.

She had asked if I went to see a doctor and I said that I didn't want to leave my house unless if it was to get the mail. I ended up getting a return to work letter from my doctor in the portal system.

These variants of COVID are just the new normal and in my opinion all we can do is our “best” to be personally responsible and follow what the CDC and medical professionals tell us. Other than that..it’s a toss of the dice and most people will probably contract it at some point. People have to work, do errands and go out from time to time just so we don’t go NUTS-we can’t live under a rock. The good news is vaccinated people are mostly experiencing mild symptoms. I’m glad you’re feeling better!
