Been out of the loop for a couple of weeks...
I've been on forced hiatus for the past three weeks because of this ridiculous bug. I was down in bed for eight days and couldn't eat anything for six. (For a week, everything tasted like battery acid. I had to force myself to eat oatmeal and drink orange juice at a bare minimum.) By the time my trifecta of ivermectin, azythromyacin, and some breathing treatment arrived via mail I was already on the upswing. And even though I didn't lose my sense of taste like my wife, I am finding that I am having to re-train it to recognize tasty vittles.
And yes, because inquiring minds want to know, I got it from infected family members who had all been "vaccinated" - just after they accused me of giving it to them. [insert eye roll here]
I was required to submit a positive test to my employer even though I had nearly 500 hours of sick-time banked. But that wasn't what nearly drove me crazy. Instead, it was when I had to get a negative test to go back to work even though the ten-day quarantine period was over. After signing up online and driving the 15 minutes out to the outdoor testing (in a parking lot) for my designated appointment, I was told by an attendant (another ten minutes later) that the website had moved my appointment out another ten days because they would only allow testing every 15 days. So nice of them to tell me all this on the website when I signed up for the same-day appointment. OH, WAIT! THEY DIDN'T!
Morons.
So then I spent the next several hours calling around to find another place that would do the testing but not charge me $150 for the privilege. Finally hit a doc-in-the-box who told me I would have my results in 24-48 hours. Yeah, right. It took four days to get the results back. No apologies for the delays, just "wait one more day" every morning and evening I would call to inquire.
Oh, and then I get back into the office and find that the company has put out a memo with a thinly veiled threat about mandatory vaccinations and referring to a nonexistent Federal mandate. Let's just say that I sent a rather wordy - but respectful - letter back to the HR person telling her that not only was there no Federal mandate, but that the thinly-veiled threats of pending unemployment for those who didn't submit positive vaccine status to HR were not only medically untenable, but a legal minefield due to the ADA, HIPAA, and several other existing statutes - not to mention the recent Federal legal rulings requiring exemptions for any such mandate in both New York State and Federal positions. (I have an existing medical condition which - though not serious - is under that heading of "auto-immune disorders" which all of the known "vaccines" specifically say disqualify you from getting their vaccines. Not that they have any medical liability anyway thanks to our wonderful government dictator-wannabes.)
So to sum up, I spent a week and a half in bed, a couple of days getting back on my feet, and then another week waiting on the medical bureaucracy to tell me I could participate in society again only to get a letter from my employer threatening my continued employment. It's been a roller-coaster. What else have I missed?
