Hope you start to feel better and that it is not COVID!

Such behavior by total strangers is nerve wracking and shameful. IMO, it's as if permission has been granted to people to be as rude and selfish as possible to their fellow human beings.

It's the main reason I've been staying out of most places as much as I can. I can't even go for a walk in certain areas because there are cyclists and other walkers who don't - or won't - respect distancing at all.

I'm helping care for my 89 yr old mom, and I not only need to protect her, but if I were to get sick, she'd be in big trouble! It seems some people have no concept of the many reasons why safety measures are so important.

I'm sorry you've had to go through this. I wish you the best - a negative test and a fast recovery to feeling better.

That sounds like a nightmare. I hope your test is negative. The maga guy is the reason I don't go in public at all except the grocery store where so far everyone has been masked and no idiot was making a scene. Between this extreme heat and humidity and COVID, there are too many scary people out there. On the trail thankfully I only meet decent people who go to one side as I go far to the other side. No one is masked except for one guy I saw jogging by. It would be so incredibly hot running with a mask on. My granddaughter is a trainer at LA Fitness and she and her clients have to be masked and she said it's so hot and tiring.

Hope you feel better and it is just a sinus infection!

Idiots! I am sorry kathy.

So sorry you have to go through this Kath! I hope you feel better fast and it that is not covid as well.

I really liked my dentist office as we were given assigned areas to stand in even in the waiting room. There were also physically distanced chairs but I don't like to sit for any length of time if I don't have to.

That's awful behavior...and I'm wishing you negative results. Be well.

A friend has just been tested, I know it's nerve wracking to be waiting for results. Sending you good vibes for "just" a sinus infection and that it can be easily treated.

Our state doesn't have a mandate, it's up to the individual business to require or not require. Our establishment doesn't require a mask but we provide them and of course sanitizer to everyone who wants them. Almost everyone uses the sanitizer, and I'm guessing about 80% of the people wear a mask. I sanitize shopping carts and counters after every use.

Where I work, I've had to tell people to put a mask on, or wait their turn outside. One woman was coughing, and got indignant when I told her she couldn't even come in without a mask. She complained to my boss that I wouldn't let her in without the mask and the boss told her she'd have done the same thing. I've also told people with the mask pulled down under their nose, to pull it up please. Most do without a quibble, altho there always is somebody who has to grandstand. I have the authority to suggest they go elsewhere if they fuss too much, and have done so.

Mystical Manns, good for you -- you are the front line protecting us all. Thank you. And thank your supervisor for us, for backing you up :-)

Kathsgrdn, thinking good thoughts for you -- hope you hear good news soon.

Here's to a negative result, Kathsgrdn!

Our daughter has a friend who made an appt. to be tested. She went and still had to wait in quite a long line of cars. She got tired of the wait and went home. A couple days later she was notified her results were positive after not being tested at all.

Just got the call and I'm negative! I thought I would be but wanted to make sure.

Yay! I'm so pleased for your good news. Are you feeling better though, physically and not just relieved....

Are the headache and sore throat resolving?

Another Yay!

Good news.

Morz, I think they're a little better today. Second day of antibiotics. Still don't feel like doing much. At least I'm sleeping better the last couple nights/mornings.

Very good news! now continue to take care of yourself :-)

Wonderful news! So glad you're taking the precaution to check. Hope the headache etcetera amount to nothing but a little cold.

Congrats on your "negative". I know from reading your posts that you're a do-er, never sitting still, so it's hard for you now to lie low. Sorry that you've been under the weather so much lately!
