Covid-19 For the First Time

I am one of those lucky ones that avoided Covid-19 (technical name coronavirus SARS-CoV-2) for years. Now I have it for the first time. Five days ago, my wife got Covid-19, and my daughter had strep. Well, the virus is still with us, and it is evolving so maybe we should stop calling it Covid-19 and just call it Covid vintage 2023, Covid vintage 2024, etc. Yesterday (Monday), well now it is after midnight so technically the day before yesterday, I got what seemed to be a cold. I had a sore throat. Then during the night (last night) I started feeling weak and tired, I had some muscle pains and I got very strong fever chills. I did not measure my temperature but based on the strong fever chills I think it must have been at least 100 degrees.

Luckily for me, the Covid vintage 2024 is milder than the original. Right now, I have a fever and fever chills, but not as strong as last night. I went to our doctor’s office here in Dallas today to get professionally tested for covid and strep. I did not have strep, but I had covid. Naturally my wife and I need to isolate and maybe our daughter too. We suggested she takes into a hotel, so she does not get covid, but she does  not want to. I may not be as active blogging for a few days but here are some covid related jokes.

Look at Jack’s smug face. This scene is funny. The photo is from BoredPanda.
The Goodfellas are sitting around laughing at a joke. Why are we running out of toilet paper? Because when someone sneezes a 100 people shit themselves.
Remember the toilet paper shortage?
Corona beer changes their name to avoid association with the Coronavirus outbreak. The new name is "Ebola Extra".
