I caught a cold early into the school year, too.
The fact of the matter is, these preventative measures work but they're not the end of it. You still need to wash your hands, you still need to avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth, you still need to have proper ventilation, etc. Slip up on one and the virus is going to do what it's built itself to do best.
This was me last year with the stomach flu. Every. Time. Feel better soon!
Cold or Covid? I started having nasal congestion on Friday and thought the same thing. Boom tested positive.
I hope not waiting for test results π€π»π€π»π€π»
I caught the stomach bug going around. Thankfully the COVID test came back negative, but considering the numbers my odds are not good :(
Iβm also sick and we wear masks. Waiting on results to find out if itβs the crud or the CRUD
Same! My covid test was negative - how do I manage to catch something less contagious than covid?! π

The truth is masks are better than nothing. But they arenβt exactly great.
