So my wife’s sister came to visit from California. Flew halfway around the world with zero precautions. Day 2 of us all being in the car together begins to feel unwell. Both her and my wife tested +ve for Covid. Weirdly I’ve been clear - had a scratchy throat on Wednesday but really that’s it.
Nothing we could really do - we had rented a cabin in the country so just stayed outside as much as possible.

Your wife could've unloaded a check left hook on her sister for not masking up. Not saying it would help the symptoms but would teach a lesson to her sister to mask up.

Thought I caught it again last week. Started getting a bit of a sore throat and fever last Monday night. Tested negative. But, was still a bit sick for the rest of the week, which I happened to be on vac from work. What a waste!

Planning a vacation for the spring and these are the exact type of scenarios I’m trying to avoid.
Ah well it what it is though, Covid ain’t going anywhere anytime soon. Just gonna mask up in the airport and deal with whatever happens.

Would also advise taking precautions for a couple weeks before you leave.

Had a long flight back from philippines (15hrs) and people coughing like crazy in the airplane. Son got a lingering cough (2 year old ain't having the mask for 15hrs), and he'll need to see a pulmonologist this week

Just got back from Thailand and my gf caught the covid. First time. Masked up on all planes but not out in public.
I will say, our flight from Beijing to San Francisco was the absolute worst. I feel like the majority of the passengers were sick. Coughing, sneezing, and snorting snot the entire 13 hour flight. Maybe 2 (besides us) out of 100 had masks.
We going back to lockdowns fam. Wouldn’t surprise me in the slightest.

Not happening. CDC just announced they are allowing companies to allow employees to go right back to work the next day after testing positive for Covid. So no more need for social distancing etc.

Yeah I don’t see lockdowns happening again. We can’t even mandate patients and families to wear masks on units with active COVID/flu outbreaks at my job. The most we can do is “strongly encourage” and even that is like pulling teeth.

I haven't flown in years.
Not sure how I would handle someone coughing it up next to me on a plane tbh... I peace out if someone is coughing it up in a coffee shop these days.
I'd have to cram myself into the overhead or some ****

The whole country is gonna burn for one reason or another if we get lockdowns.
Too many people with nothing to do and pissed off. If you don’t have the threat of not being able to pay rent you got time for other stuff.

MAYBE if you drink raw milk. Pasteurized milk has zero risk. From what I’ve read, they’ve found viral remnants, not live culturally virus that has the ability to infect.

But will it jump to the milkers?

People in close contact with infected animals are at highest risk. AFAIK there have been no reports of sustained human to human transmission.
