    My wife is a special ed. teacher and today was her day to get the Covid bug, after being vaccinated and being the second day of "test to stay" policy at her school.

    She's down now with a fever of 101° and heavy chest congestion. Let's be careful out there.

    This too shall pass...

    She is in my prayers. Special Ed is a tough and under appreciated job. I've had it for several days. I've been able to work all days except today. I went to pick up doors for a job instead. Blasted fever is climbing up to 103.1 tonight. Sauna and cold shower time for me. Going to go do a tree job tomorrow.

    Hope you get better soon!

    Stay home and recover instead of running the risk of infecting someone else, please!

    Thanks on the get well, but I am going to work. I don't know about you, but all my tree work is outside and solo. If anyone should climb up after for a snuggle, I'll bomb them with a limb.:salute: I have already informed my current client that they must leave their house in order for me to return on Friday, or pay me double the labor in several months. ( I am booked up through next summer on construction). They are all going bow hunting for several days I guess. It will be okay. The beat goes on.

    The vaccines simply reduce the severity of the virus. If cases of Covid pass without needing a hospital stay, then the vaccines have done their job.

    That's my understanding anyways.

    Have you two looked into Ivermectin? Here's a site of Doctors that will do remote consults and prescribe via the phone. There are a bunch of countries listed, the USA is listed part way down the page.

    Sorry Ralphie, I hope the vaccine provides enough immunity to keep her out of the hospital.
    Watch her O2 sat with a pulse oximeter. Take your own too!
    Camber, I would advise the same.

    Sleep on side or stomach, not back. I have been told that the mucus with covid is thicker, and I can agree to that. The back sleeping is part of what's causing it to settle in lungs more and go to pneumonia.

    Hydrate hydrate hydrate, vit C, D, Zinc. Tylenol. Get up and move every hour, take deep breaths, go outside and get a good cough on.
