Routine cleaning.

Nothing, but I did have someone come do a good deep cleaning of my home (have since realized the dining room light fixture is clear glass) but that was because it was needed and I didnāt want to do it.

I burned red candles and prayed that Tucker Carlson would send Ivermectin to make my home pure.

I was in your neighborhood, and tried to buy a flashlight. There were none available. Know anything about that?
A study from the New England Journal of Medicine investigated how long SARS-CoV-2 would survive on various surfaces, including plastic, stainless steel, copper, and cardboard. The findings suggest that the virus could survive for:
- 4 hours on copper
- 24 hours on cardboard
- 72 hours on plastic and steel
A September 2020 study in The LancetTrusted Source found that when researchers swabbed various surfaces in a major hospital in Italy, only one item of protective equipment tested positive for SARS-CoV-2. They conclude that, as long as people follow standard cleaning procedures, the risk of transmission from surfaces is low.

Why would I need a flashlight when my governor has guaranteed a stable power grid?

Nothing will convince you that the human race is too stupid to survive more than air travel. I was stuck in the check-in line behind a dude who was arguing with the clerk (and then security) that he didnāt need a COVID test in order to fly back to the US.
I donāt know where he gets his information, but I have some suspicionsā¦
I hope they tossed his ass in the tower gaol.

Day 20 update. Most obvious symptoms are gone. I still have a nagging cough that is ameliorated well with menthol cough drops. And, I get tired/fatigued earlier in the day each day. Instead of easily staying up to/past 11pm each evening, I start dragging at around 9pm. I started running again at day 14 with interesting results. My aerobic performance is down over 20% and level of exertion is way up even with the performance down. What is typically a moderate workout pace (7:20 min per mile for 5-7 miles) is nearly impossible. The same level of effort produces a 8:40 min per mile, which is typically and easy recovery run for me. Race pace of 6:10 per mile for a 5k would be impossible. I expected that in my first run but now, after 3 runs in 6 days, it is not changing. So, aerobic capacity is way down but so is anaerobic capacity as it takes me 4x longer to recover my heart rate. Really interesting so far. Typically, after a bad cold, I am back to normal after my 2nd or 3rd run after the cold.

Day 20??? Holy cow.
Wow! Das, have you had a follow up with the doctor since the initial positive test? Hoping you get well soon.
My daughter caught it last weekend and has had three pretty uncomfortable days so far: severe headaches, chills, and mucho congestion (probably contributing to the headaches). Today seems better, so weāre hopeful that sheāll be better by the end of the weekend. I sure hope she doesnāt follow the das progression; that doesnāt sound like any fun at all.
Damn, Das.
I lucked out I guess, carried around 8 50lb sacks of feed yesterday and had to take a break to catch my breath in the middle
One of the guys I play floorball with caught COVID last month and still is suffering much like Das is. He hasnāt played a league game since he got sick, and feel winded just from a few minutes of exertion.
Interestingly enough, his twin brother also caught COVID at the same time and was completely asymptomatic and was back to playing within a week of a negative test.
Which twin is the Ozzie and which is the Jose?
Theyāre Swedes, so probably neither.
