The most annoying thing about this is on Monday I had to go to hospital and in the waiting area about 75% of the people were not wearing a mask. I thought it was still mandatory to wear PPI in hospital settings

Not in our area - local hospital recently relaxed the rules.

Has flu gone away? This seems a little more serious!
Ronnie and I still wear masks in public places and use the hand wash bottles. We have both had three jabs but common sense says that we should still be careful.
In the supermarkets, we seem to be the only ones still wearing masks. It's still law that at doctors/dentists/chemists they are still required.
Better safe(ish) than sorry.
You have the advantage of not hearing anyone making fun of you wearing mask... (sorry... I figured you would take that all in good humo[u]r.) :-D

Ah but Ronnie has the ears of a bat and would point out the villain so I could encourage her to give them what for!

Still positive here, day 5 after symptoms, day 7 after suspected contraction.
Lethargy has eased a little and taste is coming back slowly, so hopefully the blighter is on its way out ...
Luckily my extreme proxy cars were built before contraction, and I haven't been in the mancave (and wont do so) until I test clear.
I may get chance to try them out before I have to send them in, fingers crossed.

Wife tested this morning = Negative.
Daughter tested = Negative.
I tested = still Positive
At least I only feel like I am at the tail end of a little cold now.

The annoying thing is you do the right thing by staying away from people for 10 days but originally caught it from one of the hoardes out there who can't be arsed.
Life is like a box of Slot cars...
