My workplace just went back to masking because it's already kicking off to be a banger of a respiratory illness season. I'll use whatever I can to remind people it's not just about your comfort.

    Be sure to get the new booster. I delayed getting it by a week and tested positive Saturday morning. Sinus + Upper Respiratory infection has been a fun thing to experience lmao.

    Worst part so far was last night when I couldn't tell I was eating expired kimchi until I took a closer look. Lack of smell or taste can be tricky lol.

    Oh wow that would have sucked!

    I can't get another booster until November because of the timing of my last shot but definitely will. Getting my flu shot tomorrow though. The amount of plain old non-COVID respiratory illness in the hospitals around here is absolutely wild, like just plain old pneumonia.

    Definitely need to get my flu shot too so thanks for that reminder. When I test negative again I will try and get both.

    Also just learned if I try blowing through my right nostril hard enough, I can blow air out of my left eye sinus passage. Covid has been a gift that keeps on giving.

    I hope you feel better soon! I had the mildest possible case of COVID thankfully thanks to five vaccines. It's worth all the sore arms, because even boosted people are getting bad cases of it!

    I am fully vaxed (booster not available here yet) and had COVID before. Just got it again recently and it really got me good. Still dealing with respiratory problems two weeks later.

    I'm so glad my last two jobs have been fully remote. I can't imagine working in an office again and I'm grateful I don't have to. Most of my friends are still working remotely too which is kinda cool.
