#COVID-19 no longer in the house here yay! We both tested negative this morning. Had we not gotten the new vaccine, tested early, and been given anti-virals it would have been far worse than a week of isolation, rest, and fluids. If you see the doc within a day of symptoms and test positive, you can get the anti-virals. If you wait until day 4 or later, they will not prescribe them. By isolating right away and informing contacts, you help reduce the spread. Sanitize isolate, and #MaskUp peeps!

The January 2024 outbreak in Virginia is trending downward as well. Have no info on the strain(s) seen. MD and DC data is not as current or informing.
