Since vaxed and boosted but now that my husband caught covid he says he is going nowhere and I am realizing how lucky I was not to get it.

I might outside. My doctor told me a year ago not to eat out even outside. That was before all the vaccines but also before the variants.

I was doing errands yesterday, its been a week and I tested negative 3 times so doc said I could go out with mask. Most of the places I went I was only one wearing a mask.

No wonder its being spread all over. Don't people realize this is airborne?
