    I had avoided covid for the first 2.5 years of the pandemic, diligently following all health protocol, barely ever leaving the house and always masking up when I did. Almost never saw my friends for two years.

    All it took was one fucking week of classes with no masks and the kid brought it home and I ended up in the fucking hospital because I couldn't fucking breathe :agony-consuming:

    Of course, all mandatory masking is long gone and it's only going to be a matter of time before it happens again.

      Jeez, hope you're feeling better and don't have any long-term effects.

      We're in a country with a ridiculous expensive healthcare system, too. Each bad run of COVID is a dice roll for bankruptcy. :shrek-pixel-despair:

        is a dice roll for bankruptcy.

        jesus, I get pissed when I have to shell out $80 for the ambulance ride, I hadn't even considered the cost in other counties (USA)
