The dreaded COVID is going around again. Fingers crossed you don't have it @ArraDreaming
How has your day been @balance37 @ArraDreaming ?

Hhmmm, I'm not sure about that one (the immunity). Probably best to speak to a GP.
I can totally understand the anxiety around a test being positive. That would be a shame if your workplace wouldn't understand you needed time off if you did have COVID. It's actually in their best interests, too.
I work in a hospital, but somehow have never had COVID. I think I've just been lucky.

@tyme Lemon Balm is a herb from the mint family, and it is good for digestion and also known to help with anxiety/stress. It's actually quite a mild flavour, which is why I like it.

Stay in your garage then @ArraDreaming .
Did you know you are allowed to go to work with COVID? I'm more worried about your little miss.
Even at the doctors, if you ring and say you have COVID, they just tell you to come in and wear a mask.
