Cold

I appear to have caught a cold. Not COVID — I tested negative this morning. Despite my ongoing precautions, I have something causing sniffling, sneezing, and body aches, with no fever.

I had a dentist appointment this afternoon, and while they said that if I didn't have a fever or more severe symptoms, it would be okay to come in for the checkup, I did not feel comfortable potentially passing a cold on to them and their other patients.

Lisa did make up some chicken soup two nights ago, so I will have the remaining leftover soup for lunch, which may help somewhat.

Possibly at this point more "maybe not Covid" as a large study which came out recently found that RATs (assuming that's what you used) are currently only 60% accurate early in an infection. Fingers crossed! I'd have thought no fever would rule it out but that's apparently no longer the case.

Rest up, Kevin, and enjoy the leftover chicken soup.
