Well shit.

Avoided it for 3 years, but one of my wife's coworkers came to work sick, got her sick, now I've got it. Feeling pretty discouraged, to think of all the precautions we have taken, only to have this happen ☹️

Wife was pretty sick for about 5 days. I just started feeling it yesterday. Not doing too bad, but damn if I'm not upset about her coworker's inconsideration.

I'm planning to still keep up the fight, still take precautions - that's the smart thing to do, right? Looking for a little reassurance/support.

This pandemic has turned everyone into inconsiderate fools. I'm sorry you caught it, I hope it stays "mild" and yes, absolutely keep up the fight! You know the numbers, each time it gets worse, if not in the actual days when you're sick but I can speak from experience, 2x long covid is a whole new level from 1x. Advice: rest, rest and more rest. Do not push your body. I hope you don't get it but long covid shows up after ~4 weeks and it's sneaky. You don't realize it at first.
