    When I caught COVID I had symptoms for two weeks, and you’re telling me that if I hadn’t been WFH I would’ve had to go be around people for 13 of those 14 days while super contagious? Sure, people are supposed to be vaccinated now, but still, what a fucking joke.

      No it’s specifically if you have no to mild symptoms and have been fever free for 24 hours. Which is exactly how we handle pretty much every other respiratory disease.

    Sad but maybe at least someone will drag the virus into a mansion of some superrich prick and he’ll spend the rest of his life with brain fog.

    I would love to see the science behind this reasoning considering everything so far still indicates you’re still potential contagious for five days with or without a fever.

    But hey, good luck with this given that the new strain is more communicable than the current batch of variants.
