@FullLaneFemme Would this work at the dentist? That’s the only place I ever go unmasked (with readimask) and I would love to have something to make me feel better about it.
@JPWeiland Is day 0 the first day they have symptoms? Any info on how infectious someone is before symptoms might appear? I can’t seem to find good info on that part. Thanks!
@ibrake4ants Ugh. This just came up in a local “moms group” I’m in. Nurses saying to stop testing for Covid because it’s “the flu/cold”. And I’m like “shouldn’t you test if the tests exist so ppl know how to treat etc” they just don’t want to admit it’s not a “cold”
@lovebugtx Yes it does feel like it’s year round! Friends I know their kids seem sick all the time! With masking we’re hardly sick anymore so I’m not used to it! If we make it to the weekend with no symptoms I’ll be happy!
Probably a silly question but will n95 protect against strep throat? Heard another child we had brief contact with at an event (15 minutes) has it today. We always mask but still anxious. Thanks!
@lovebugtx We always wash hands after going out but didn’t actually know she had it when we were there-heard from her mom today. She must’ve just started symptoms last night/today. I had it a bunch as a kid too. Thanks for the reply!
@ParentMishmash Thanks! We keep them as tight as possible with no gaps so I hope it’s enough. Haven’t caught anything in the past few years masking everywhere so hopefully.
@AnyAnagram Thanks for the reply! Before Covid I always heard it was spread more through contact like surfaces or sharing straws etc. I am hoping our masks protect us as I really don’t want to have any sickness before Christmas!
@MarkMarkn1@elisaperego78 In the US you can get testing for the basic ones at a Dr appt.last time my child was sick I had to ask multiple times for them to actually do it. They just looked her over and said “a virus” and didn’t want to do it! But have no problem charging me $200 for basically nothing
@singingsox Yes! I’m so tired of putting myself out there! Last time I asked my cardiologist about POTS they’re like “oh you don’t faint so it’s not that” and really condescending about it. Run basic labs and say “you’re fine!”
