    My wife and I made it 4-1/2 years without ever getting COVID. I just tested positive 2 days ago. My wife is also sick and will probably pop positive soon.

    The worst part is that I caught it from an old friend, who came back to town for the week, invited me over, and only told me after spending the day with his family that his little kid is positive for COVID and has been passing it around his family. This particular friend never took the pandemic seriously, deciding that the death rate was so low, and serious life-altering side effects of COVID were so rare, that it wasn’t a big deal. His family has apparently had COVID several times over now.

    Fuck this pandemic, and everyone involved in prolonging it.
