Please stay safe. :up:
yikes. that sucks bro, especially since you took so many precautions

the only time i'm in an enclosed space with strangers is grocery shopping, but now i'm wondering if even that's way too risky, especially here in UK

I did everything, wear an n95, wash hands after every visit out of the house AND sanitize them with alcohol etc, barely went out, never touched my face before I washed them and I somehow still got COVID, tested positive today.

I think Captain Mazda, Puff and a few others are from the downtown Toronto area and that's where i'm 99% sure I think I got it (I live in Milton but commute to Toronto several times a week), so please be careful guys. This shit is no joke.

Constant shortness of breath, if i laugh my chest feels like it's being stabbed with an ice pick (thanks youtube), absolutely bed ridden. Nausea, headaches, the whole nine. I wouldn't wish this shit on anyone, it's brutal.
Oooohhh, so that's the nerve I hit earlier.
Well, anyways, despite your recent cuntishness, I hope you're doing well and recover from this soon.

I was only referring to what you were saying on I believe page 6 of this thread about older people vs younger people being "saved". I had said it before I even knew I was positive. Let's just forget about it for now I don't have the mental energy to argue lol. Regardless anyways, I appreciate the well wishes, thank you Eraser. Stay safe as well, hope you or anyone in your family doesn't get sick. :up:

I think I was an asshole once to you too regarding something to do with your old age or something so I apologize, I guess it takes a life threatening illness to realize it for some morons like me trying to be funny and edgy.

You're right about the precautions, I did anything and everything I could to not "get it" and still happened. The only extra measure I could have taken with how anal I was about it would be to wear a hazmat suit or just not leave the house period. Having groceries delivered costs a bit extra but it might be worth it at this point. I guess the delivery person could spread it to you as well by some chance so i'm not sure other than wiping every single thing you buy off with wipes how you could prevent it 100%. Still better than going to grocery stores though as they are basically a sardine can but with people lol.

Not sure whats going on in the UK but Canada has been limiting hours of stores to less hours basically making more people cram in the same space at once. Makes no sense and it's very careless.

Anyways, be careful and hoping you and everyone here as well stay healthy! :)

Australian authorities did the first 100 vaccinations for the nation yesterday on the Gold Coast. Why just the 100, anybody's guess. Personally I think I'll 'get the jab' nearer September.

That soon? Wow, I was thinking I'd have to wait until late May/early June to get the first shot.

Get well soon man. Or, how are you doing?

The speed at which the US are vaccinating since January really is pretty good. Second to the speed of Israel I think? Hats off.

Seriously though i'm only 34 and 6'1 190 Lbs, this shit is scary. Be careful. Seems to affect people differently, like there's olympic athletes with perminant lung damage now. Crazy stuff.
