Correct, I'm not one that goes to the doctor much. I did purchase an at home covid test today.
Is it fair to assume that you didn’t leave your home for two months as well to ensure you wouldn’t put anyone health at risk?
That's a no. I have a job that I have to go do in order to support my family. I unfortunately can't just post up at home every time I get the sniffles. Test is negative. Not covid.
As much as I understand the need to support your family (as I have one too) I can’t get my head around someone feeling sick for two months and still going to work, almost two years in the pandemic and over 800 000 people dead here in the US, many of whom whole families were depending on too. This means that 800 000 people died because they were infected by someone carrying the virus. They didn’t need to sleep with that person, they didn’t need to party with that person, they didn’t need to talk to that person, they didn’t need to even know the person. We can say if you had Covid, we can’t say if you ever had it, but you can say for sure that if from the beginning of the pandemic people feeling sick had stayed home many many lives would have been saved.
I can’t condone what you did but I also understand it. For my workplace vaccine was mandatory and someone could have been fired for showing up to work sick. It is a vicious circle hard to get out of, maybe it’ll help people realize the failures of the “greatest country in the world”.
