I'm starting to see more people wearing masks indoors in public in 
California. I'm guessing when school gets back in session and all of the 
kids come back from Legoland/Disneyland for their last summer vacations 
we'll see another surge and people will mask up in greater numbers.

My family just dealt with Covid - my 18 year old son contracted it and gave 
it to me; luckily my daughter had been at a sleepover camp and we hadn't 
seen my elderly mother during the time we were infected. She spent the time 
with my mom.

2 days with a high fever, tapering off over the next couple of days, general 
fatigue, headache, sinus pain and a slight sore throat.

We have enough room in our house that I could take my daughter's room and my 
son and I had 2 adjacent rooms and a bathroom to isolate to.

I went to urgent care and was prescribed Paxlovid, an anti-viral, apparently 
it's helped a lot according to friends who have taken it. My case certainly 
qualified as mild; I'm also vaxxed and boosted.

Omicron apparently presents mostly as sore throat and sinus pain; sounds 
like what I ended up getting.

Last Sunday was day 10 for me and day 12 for my son, we both exited 
isolation and spent the day deep cleaning the house. It felt good to get out 
and to clean the heck out of the place.

I can't go into work until I get a negative PCR test; apparently that can 
take up to a month to get the remnants out of your system. I can't go into 
work until then, but I do most of my work remotely anyways.
