Seems to be a duo-demic around me, Covid19 and the flu. Most workplaces out here treat covid19 like a mild tummyache, with a catch that if you are positive you must stay away, so if you catch it and are positive you're penalized, since no such thing as sick days and x amount of days missed is an auto-termination. So, people lie about their test results/don't test and take a ton of OTC medicine to mask symptoms best they can, and go in.
Obviously everyone is starting to get sick out here (from strangers I see around town to people at work) and who knows with what, I haven't caught anything yet (knock on every surface) , but it took like 3 weeks for my mail-in covid tests to get here. Next to no one wears masks since its rural, not even doctors, probably since wearing a mask is the fastest way to piss off an angry unhinged chud and there's plenty of those out here (mask related shootings is one of this state's claims to fame and its still a thing). The state lags in tracking and has for the past year or so.
