Got lucky dodging some COVID infections...

Post by Robceltsfan »

Typically Christmas dinner is at my house and we have people from both sides of the family in town. Usually 20-25 people or so. My wife's family comes down from New Jersey, my local family and some of my family from North Carolina come, and we all hang out for 5-7 hours.

With COVID fucking things up this year, we decided to keep things smaller for Christmas dinner. My wife's family was still coming down, so we simply had dinner with them and told my family (whom I'd had Thanksgiving with) that we didn't want the big crowd, for obvious reasons.

Well THAT was a great idea!!!!

Turns out my aunt went down to North Carolina to spend Christmas morning with my cousin's family.....then came back to VA and had dinner with my other cousin's family. My North Carolina cousin's wife and one of his kids have now tested positive.....along with my aunt, who got it from them......and then she brought it up and handed it off to the Virginia family.

The downside is that my Aunt (elderly), cousin's mom (elderly) and my cousin's husband's sister (cancer survivor) are all possibly susceptible to COVID doing some serious damage. Scary stuff...

Do you have a preexisting condition or are you the size of Chris Christie? Otherwise you could have easily shaken off the China sniffles, so this wasn't your luckiest moment.

I'd be fine. Had I passed it on to my mom, or my coworkers....or anyone else. That could have been quite bad.

Their odds would still be good though.

Great, happy to hear that.

I'd rather not roll the dice with my loved one's health, if possible.

You are also rolling the dice with their health by cutting them off from friends and loved ones.

I mean...I see you trolling and I'm glad you're having fun, but did you miss the part where I said I spent Thanksgiving with that side.....and the fact that they actually SPENT CHRISTMAS TOGETHER is why they all passed the virus on to each other?

Try harder, Undies.

You said it changed your plans, and if you let the flu control your life you are letting the Chinese win.

Sorry Rob but even before I have/had covid, I just don't understand anyone willingly take taking risks for the sake of family time... I wish you and your family well!

I’m gonna start going out of my way to get the virus instead of waiting for it to come to me. I’ll isolate and deal with it. If I get over it in a week, cool. If it takes me under, oh well. But either way, lets get this shit over with already.

Good term. Sino-sniffles is better.

UPDATE:

The aunt that was the back-and-forth carrier is in the hospital with pneumonia and blood clots in the lungs. Doesn't sound good...she's 69.

All others that had/have it seem to be doing fine.

LMAO at Bobby being bitch-slapped by the Chinese!




[Note: Is that how this works, Madnesss... err... ooops... I mean Undies?]





- Hoping for the best for your aunt... that sucks.
