So who's been working front line here during the pandemic?
We're currently stage 4 in Melbourne over 3000 active cases and I'm working. Apparently children don't get covid. So there's no need to shut child care. * +

Not 'front line' I haven't, but yes I've been working the whole way through.

Apart from the two times I had covid-19 myself, obvs.

My daughter's mum doesn't work anyway. I didn't see her for the first month, whilst we sorted out procedures. Since then, back to three days a week.

Were you diagnosed by a medical professional as having Covid 19 Mikey or do you just feel you had it? * +

I just felt it was like nothing I'd ever had before, and partially matched the apparent symptoms. And my GP said I almost certainly had it, given my description to him.

If it wasn't covid then look out for a bone dry virus that attacks your lungs and develops into a severe fever, as that's going around too.

I couldn't be tested first time as I don't drive, though apparently I could've got one the second time. But I hadn't looked into it as my guard was down (didn't think you could get it twice). * +

Flu's wet. Seriously, you have no idea. * +

I had flu once, no phlegm, severe sweats, delirium. That was very ''wet''. Well my bed was (hot) that was the nastiest virus I've ever had * +
