Friday last week – started room isolation by myself due to close contact, PCR came back negative.
Monday – wife & little one tested positive C19
Yesterday – the other 2 kids tested positive C19
Today – I’m still the only one keeping negative with no symptoms. Planning to go back to isolation by myself since I’m the minority 😀
Not sure if I should cry or laugh; but definitely am thankful. I could be infected in the next few days or could remain negative until the 7 days are over. Here praying for the best.
WA which has recorded single to non cases for years since early 2020 has now jumped to 33K active cases since Omicron & the international border opening. It is bound to happen one way or another; the hard border policy is hard to keep with other pressing matters – economy (lack of workers that even baristas are offered $90k/year salary), election year, families separated since start of covid etc. Did I mention election?
Unsure which room to sleep in; ended up with my sleeping mat at the living area for the past 2 nights. Makes up for the hiking trip I missed last weekend.

Stay hungry, stay safe
