    Went to see my parents last week. Dad had a sniffle the first day and I suggested we leave but my wife didn’t want to drive 8 hours back home so we agreed to “be careful” and he stayed mostly away from us and wore a mask when we were in the car. Cue to 4 days later and my wife feels tired and has allergy symptoms driving home (tbf, the pine pollen down south is nuts and it’s one of her primary allergens). I slept in the guest bedroom when we got home / spent my time on the other side of the house in case it wasn’t just allergies. Tuesday morning…she tests for Covid “just to see” and is positive. I’m typing this from a hotel room, still feeling well, tested negative. Will test again today regardless.

    Oh, and Remdesivir? $1680 for a single prescription. Fuck me; no wonder they have so much money for TV ads.
