Hit me last weekend. Started with sniffles and slight cough. A few nights later progressed to night sweats and damp sheets. Now stuck with a persistent nagging, hacking cough and chest congestion. Two home COVID tests were negative. Taking 12 hour Sudafed (the real stuff), NyQuil for cough, and Halls drops. Some research tells me summer colds can last much longer than winter. One thing for sure… it’s a tough time.

Get a Covid test at a medical facility.

I don't know where you live, but here in Indiana, the Ragweed and Golden Rod are going crazier than I have ever seen it. Are you allergic to these weeds? It's BAD here with that stuff right now. Just a thought.

Allergies have been going crazy for many people in my family for last several weeks.
Also more Covid positives among people in my circle than ever before. This despite proclamations by “some” that that deal is over.
I want my fair share

My wife and youngest daughter both got it last weekend, and I have been having mild symptoms, for four days! All have had negative COVID Test.

Nope. I've missed out on all the fun stuff. I usually get sick at least once per year but since the world's deadliest pandemic has killed us all - I haven't had so much as a sniffle in 3 years. Oh sure, I had my allergies in the spring like I do every year but nothing a Tylenol or Claratin can't shake off.
I've come to the conclusion that I am God. Everybody else died during this horrible, deadly pandemic except me.
