Another covid thread....sorry

Take the time off man!

I’m going to whether I want to or not. Supposed to be at work right now but instead in the back yard hunting and just shot my first deer on my own land ( 11 acres)
Headed to the lease this afternoon for a couple doe......hopefully

I was told by the hospital that gave me the test a month ago that I would probably test positive for many months but I could return to work after 10 days with no symptoms.
That being the case I might not work more than a few weeks this year��
If someone around me ( patient or crew member) test positive again I’ll be tested again and again be sitting at home. The only problem I have with all this mandatory time off is I’m not making overtime money........bad I love OT money

We just had our entire work site shut down because of an outbreak. We had to put everyone up in lodging until they tested negative. The longest anyone went from a positive test to negative was 5 weeks. We PCR tested them every 5 days. This was about 6000 people, so a pretty big sample size. So I doubt that you would go months testing positive, but with this crazy virus you never know.

We have @ least 1 every shift. If we followed this, we'd all be home!

I've been exposed a few times but luckily never got it. Quarantine is easy for me as I work from home. It was harder on my wife and kids.

We had one right before Thanksgiving and Thanksgiving day was day 10. We ended up going camping in our trailer those 10 days and did work/school from it. I smoked turkey and we enjoyed a peaceful quarantined Thanksgiving.

Another covid thread....sorry

I have felt like hammered whale snot for the past four or five days. Finally went to care now and got tested. Came back positive. They told me to go home and keep doing what I’ve been doing and that’ll be $177. No meds or anything. Saturday night I thought I wouldn’t make morning. The high fever and pain was like nothing I’ve ever felt before. My wife called an old Dr of hers and he gave me ivermectin and something else that I can’t remember right now. I’m trying to stay up and moving but so weak.

Yes.

End of August when I tested positive. Then, end of October when I was close contact with my Mom testing positive. It's just companies being very "safe," not following the science.

Are you monitoring you Oxygen Saturation with a PulseOx? I find it absolutely criminal Doctors aren't telling people to do this.

3 times(30 days) for me. Of my 10 employees, 7 have had it.

I also signed off on two death insurance checks in the last two days of work. I have lost several members to Covid.

Yes sir. One of my wife’s nurse friends sent one through Amazon and she is getting lots of advise from them. The dr at the clinic pretty well said good luck.

several of the ER docs I work with will give the same info to patients that have it... usually for months after
