COVID-19: The Pandemic that Never Should Have Happened and How to Stop the Next One | Debora MacKenzie

Outside, it is my favorite kind of day - gloomy, foggy - and inside, I'm spending it in my new favorite place - cozy under a blanket, accompanied by candlelight, reading... and getting over COVID 😔

Didn't think Lady 'Rona and I would become acquainted... but here we are.

quietlycuriouskate That looks like a very healing place to be! 6mo

ravenlee Oh, I‘m sorry she caught up to you. Hope you get better soon. Your sanctuary looks lovely, at least. 6mo

Librarybelle Hope you feel better soon! Your home library looks amazing! 6mo

Hooked_on_books That looks so perfect! You know, except the COVID part. 😉 Hope you mend up fast and get lots of reading in. 6mo

JamieArc It seems she is meeting lots of new people lately! My spouse and I got Covid in September for the first time. Turns out we weren‘t the unicorns we thought we were. 6mo

BookmarkTavern Good vibes for a quick and complete recovery! 6mo

ChaoticMissAdventures oh no!! I hope you are feeling better quickly.

Librariana @quietlycuriouskate Thank you! My husband and I spent a couple of months working on this home library project, and I am slowly but surely adding touches and details to make it the absolute perfect cozy spot my child self grew up dreaming of 🥰 6mo

Librariana @ravenlee Thank you kindly 😊 I'm pretty sorry she caught up to me, too! I thought I had escaped her clutches, but after 3 years, she finally got me. 6mo

Librariana @ravenlee And thank you for referring to this space as a sanctuary 🥰 I think that is the perfect word for it! Now I just gotta tackle the scary, scary closet 😳 6mo

Librariana @Librarybelle Thank you so much for your sweet compliments about the home library and for your kind well wishes! 💜 I tested positive this past Sunday and qualified for a medication due to being high risk. I'm very grateful there was something I could take to keep the virus from multiplying and grateful to've been vaccinated already. It kept my symptoms rather mild. 6mo

Librariana @Hooked_on_books Thank you so much, Holly! 💜 A very humbling compliment. I agree that the COVID part is anything BUT perfect. I genuinely wasn't expecting it! Thought it was just a cold. Good thing I tested before going to work! I felt pretty cruddy until Tuesday, so I was rather lethargic and with little energy for much. Have read a little more the past two days and am hoping for more reading this weekend 😊 6mo

Librariana @JamieArc I am right there with ya! ? I was like, "Am I gonna be one of those shiny, happy people who doesn't get it!??" And then I thought... wow... that must mean I have no social life ? And I mean... I DON'T... but that's beside the point ? I'm sorry you and your spouse BOTH got a visit from Corona! My husband is still testing negative, so here's to hoping it misses him completely! 6mo

Librariana @BookmarkTavern Thank you, kindly! I feel like I am on the mend! 😊 Symptoms have definitely subsided, thank goodness. 6mo

Librariana @ChaoticMissAdventures Thank you, Shawna! 💜 I was just really scared it would progress to something severe or that I'd need to go to the hospital, and I am *very* grateful that did not happen. As a high-risk individual, I qualified for a medication that helped keep the virus from multiplying. My symptoms have certainly subsided. 6mo

marleed Your space is wonderful and thank goodness Covid could be tackled when it found its way to you! 6mo

Librariana I agree 1,000% @marleed ! My husband and I remarked on the same thing... how grateful we both were that this happened to me NOW vs. at the beginning of the pandemic... when we were still figuring things out. I'm grateful to've been recently vaccinated and to have medication on hand that could help! 😊💕 6mo

After all this time I thought I escaped Covid, but today it got me 😭 As a severe asthmatic, I've been really grateful I haven't had to use my neb in 3 years until today. I feel like I've been run over. 2023 sucks!

COVID-19: The Pandemic that Never Should Have Happened and How to Stop the Next One | Debora MacKenzie

The BAD news: After feeling pretty cruddy last night and this morning, I took a test. And for the first time in 3 years (!!) I've tested positive for COVID 🤒

The GOOD news: I could smell my coffee this morning and my symptoms aren't TOO bad (mostly congested and exhausted with a gnarly headache behind my eyes and a small fever). I can take a couple of sick days if needed, depending on how I feel in the AM, and I have PLENTY of books on deck 📚

So it took nearly three years but I finally got struck down with Covid and I‘m mad about it and I feel like hot garbage. My head feels like molasses and fog.

Chelsea.Poole 😖 hope it passes soon!! 1y

So still can‘t smell or taste, still fighting headache. But test negative at long last and this exhaustion is easing up so… I‘m making ground at long last… 😝😵‍💫 phew. I‘m woefully behind on absolutely everything. Just keep swimming.

Graywacke I‘m glad you‘re negative. And I‘m so sorry about the headaches and other miserable symptoms. Hope you feel better soon. 2y

TheBookHippie @Graywacke ♥️. I gotta say I‘ve about had it. What an ordeal. Blech. 2y

CoffeeAndABook So glad you‘re negative and on the mend. It took me weeks to regain my taste, smell and strength but it all did return and specifically my sense of smell is better than ever 😃😅 2y

KristiAhlers Awe I‘m sorry you ended up with that nasty stuff. My husband was sick with it about three months ago. For him the worst was the headache and lack of tasting things once he wanted to eat again. So glad you‘re testing negative and are on the mend. Slow and steady, my friend. 2y

TheBookHippie @KristiAhlers the three day migraine was no joke that was worse than my aura migraines, I started September 23, so I‘m sick of it all😝😵‍💫 2y

TheBookHippie @CoffeeAndABook glad to know it comes back!!! And maybe better! 👃🏼 2y

KristiAhlers @TheBookHippie OMG! Yeah, no that‘s just not ok. I get ocular migraines and I‘m done for the day when I get them. I can‘t even imagine 3 days of that. Hugs. 2y

fredamans Hope you feel better soon! 2y

batsy Glad that you've tested negative. Wishing you a speedy recovery ❤️ 2y

DebinHawaii Glad you are on the road to recovery. Keep resting & getting better! 💜💜💜 2y

Andrew65 You can catch up when you are better. It takes a long time to recover fully, I remember from last year. Take things extremely slowly and carefully otherwise you go backwards. If your body is telling you, ‘you are fine‘ don‘t believe it, it is being fooled. Just rest and do small bits, and have patience. Be patient and you will come through this, sending love and positive thoughts. ♥️💕🥰 2y

TheBookHippie @Andrew65 Thanks it is hard to know how much to do. I‘m not expected at school until 17 October and only 3 hour days to start. I think that is the right way to go. 2y

TheBookHippie @Kelly_the_Bookish_Sidekick 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻 2y

TheBookHippie @MoonWitch94 me too phew. ♥️ 2y

TheBookHippie @robinb ME TOO!! ♥️ 2y

Andrew65 @TheBookHippie After I was off with Covid (about 4 weeks) I could only manage 3 hour days for the first two weeks and even that was exhausting. Basically wrote off best part of 2 months for me, hence my decision to leave. I couldn‘t keep getting Covid and taking it home to my wife who is 10 years older than me and had it even worse. I never take time off ill, more time off with COvID then than in my whole career. 2y

TheBookHippie @Andrew65 This is my last year I think. It‘s a tough decision -as you know. 2y

Andrew65 @TheBookHippie Very, I made the final decision when I had to take my wife to A + E whilst she had Covid. (September). took time to ruminate on it and handed notice in during November, left at Easter. Now not working, but doing it remotely am on the Governing body for 2 schools and on Trust Board (a group of schools). Likely by this time next week too be Chair of Governors at one. I certainly don‘t regret my decision. 2y

TheBookHippie @Andrew65 I have my grandson this year and a few that really need me to finish up with them before they head to upper elementary grades. Seems a nice way to end my time. (edited) 2y

Andrew65 @TheBookHippie Sounds perfect timing! 2y

CarolynM 💕 2y

kspenmoll I am so sorry you are going through this with covid. You have given so much to your students- it just might be time to give to yourself. 💙💚❤️ 2y

Fever loves me
#sosickofthisshit #covidday5

tpixie Oh no!! Drink some hot tea and have some honey to soothe your throat. And even though it tastes great gargling with warm salt- water may be helpful. 2y

tpixie Also, sleep on your belly it helps expand your lungs, keep hydrated, and even though you feel bad, get up and walk around to improve your circulation 🌺🤗🌺 2y

TheBookHippie @tpixie I sit outside on my lounger at least twice a day- I can breathe better outdoors- it‘s cold here low 60s with a breeze …I‘ll try salt water, thanks- at this point I‘ll try anything blech…. I‘ve been drinking cinnamon tea with actual pieces of honeycomb 😝 2y

CBee Nooooo not again!!!! 🙁🙁🙁🙁🙁 2y

CBee Oh and Cepacol throat lozenges are the bomb when it comes to scratchy and sore throat! The honey lemon flavor. 2y

TheBookHippie @CBee currently writing list for adult child thank you I added it! The 48 hour migraine headache was the worst but this is no fun… it‘s my first COVID go round day 5 2y

TrishB Hope you‘re feeling better soon. 2y

IndoorDame Get as much rest as possible! It‘s my first Covid go round too (day 12), I feel way less like I‘m going to die than I did the first few days, but these symptoms are stubborn. Pace yourself. 🤗 (and buy the softest tissues the store has!) 2y

TheBookHippie @IndoorDame OMG MY POOR nose and lip and I have the pricey tissues 😩 2y

TheBookHippie @IndoorDame Gads this sucks I‘m so sorry for you too. 2y

IndoorDame @TheBookHippie yea, I‘ve taken to just putting hand cream on my nose and lip 😅 And thank you 🙏 I‘m thinking about you and hoping yours doesn‘t last too long! 2y

tpixie @TheBookHippie ooh! Honeycomb 🍯 🍯 sounds delicious!! 2y

tpixie @IndoorDame you take care and get well soon!! I finally quit wearing a mask at work the last two weeks. Maybe I need to start wearing it again! 2y

IndoorDame @tpixie thank you!! I‘d start by checking the levels in your area. (They‘re pretty high near me right now) But yeah. staying vigilant is always a good idea, especially given how lax the current guidelines are… 2y

TheBookHippie @tpixie @IndoorDame levels are HIGH here- no one masks except us few autoimmune or otherwise compromised folks. We have had several deaths just in the school community and several in hospital but no one talks about it........ 2y

IndoorDame @TheBookHippie I‘m so sorry to hear about your school community! Sadly it‘s the same here, basically no one masks except us compromised folk. I know Covid fatigue is real, but I wish people would talk about it more. Feeling ‘done‘ with the pandemic doesn‘t make the numbers any better. 2y

TheBookHippie @IndoorDame I. SO. AGREE. 2y

CBee @TheBookHippie I totally thought you‘d had it before, oops! Sorry about that 🤦‍♀️ you mentioned sore lips and nose - Aquaphor!!! 2y

CBee @tpixie I got my second booster the other day and the pharmacist was telling me her husband got Covid from someone who KNEW he had it and just didn‘t tell anyone. There are a LOT of people who just don‘t care. I still mask and I‘m in Alabama, I don‘t care what anyone thinks, I‘m going to protect my kids and myself 🙁 2y

tpixie @CBee @IndoorDame @TheBookHippie yeah, it‘s just not going away. At least when I wear a mask I don‘t have to wear makeup! That‘s saves me time getting ready in the mornings! 2y

IndoorDame @tpixie @CBee @TheBookHippie Unexpected blessings! I saw a meme going around Instagram the other day that said ‘the cdc recommends men not go back to telling women to smile now that they can see their faces again‘ and realized that is legit my FAVORITE thing about masking! 2y

tpixie @IndoorDame 😂 2y

CBee @tpixie that‘s a silver lining 😊😊 2y

CBee @IndoorDame you too?? I admit it‘s nice not to have to fake smile 😂😂 You can also make faces at people and they‘d never know 😂😂😂 2y

tpixie @CBee 🌺 2y

Headache left -thank you coffee ,coke, Zyrtec-cough horrible last night seems better this morning throat raw fever hanging on at 99.

I made it 2.5 years …also in case your wondering I am always masked and I‘m very angry at the person who didn‘t mask and now I have this..

TheBookHippie @Lizpixie they are finishing their debate this morning for me. I reacted horrifically to the vaccine and pretty much most medications, vaccines and the like and overall I have lots of issues, generally until it‘s to save my life they let me fight it out. I usually have to pick between evils. Thankfully my son and husband just have very mild symptoms. My adult daughter is scared for me to try it poor thing. I‘m happy the headache has gone now. 2y

So after a week of looking after my poorly Covid husband he has kindly given it to me just in time for him to go back to working away. So I get to do Covid whilst looking after three kids. Feeling unreasonably annoyed 😂

marleed Oh no. I hope you recover quickly! 2y

Magpiegem @marleed @ashsbookmarks @Bookwormjillk @ozma.of.oz @AmyG @Sapphire @sprainedbrain @MaureenMc @Booksarelifeaddict @CarolynM @LeahBergen @Bookzombie thank you so much for all your well wishes, love and positive vibes. I feel pretty rubbish, the kids are being little pickles (but to be fair they are only 2,6 &9) but it could be an awful lot worse so grateful for that. Sending love back to you all ❤️ 2y

Magpiegem @Tamra 😂 my kids can be very resourceful when it comes to stealing sweets or playing tricks on their brothers… not so much when it comes to looking after themselves or their mummy. They would not last long on a desert island that‘s for sure 😂😂 xx 2y

I post very little beyond books but man, the pandemic is wearing this introvert thin… I‘ve been burying myself in books and staying off social media as much as possible. But as I‘ve sunk further into the depths of despair (thank you, Anne Shirley), I needed to get back to the warmth of Litsy.

(sorry for the excessive ❤️ of posts of late - I‘m a completist & had to go back to when I stopped scrolling my feed last summer - but I‘m caught up now 🤪)

sprainedbrain Love this! I can 100% relate. ❤️ 2y

TheBookHippie I feel this deep in my bones!! ♥️ 2y

LeahBergen I enjoyed seeing you like all my old posts. 😆😆 2y

Crinoline_Laphroaig Loving all the hearts! It makes me happy to see someone enjoying my posts. ❤❤❤❤❤ 2y

AvidReader25 Welcome back!!! I‘m with you on the burnout. 💙 2y

Nute Welcome back, Colleen! I totally get what you are saying about needing a distraction and then a warm embrace during the fallout of this pandemic. I hope that Litsy provides some additional comfort. It does for me! Take Care!💕 2y

janeycanuck @CoverToCoverGirl @AvidReader25 @Nute Thank you! ❤️❤️❤️ 2y

janeycanuck @Crinoline_Laphroaig @tenar As long as you weren‘t quietly (or worse - loudly!) cursing me! ❤️🤪❤️ 2y

I‘ve done so good in the past two years of avoiding Covid but sadly I popped positive Monday. Today is day three and luckily I am feeling way better. The worst was the chills and fever. I finish Supernatural yesterday so binge watching ghost adventures today.

Darklunarose Hope you fully recover fast ❤️ 2y

Christy2318 My teenager tested positive yesterday. We are all isolating in our own rooms. I was watching Supernatural last night but I‘m still in season 1 so long way to go. Warm wishes for a speedy recovery. 2y

AuntCourtney @Darklunarose thank you 2y

AuntCourtney @Christy2318 yeah thankfully it‘s just my husband and I and our roommate but our roommate and me have it so we are disinfecting and using paper products to eat and drink. Also you are in for a ride with supernatural. It is my favorite. We finished last night and I didn‘t want it to end 2y

LiteraryinLawrence Hang in there! You‘ve got this! 2y

AuntCourtney @LiteraryinLawrence thank you 💚 2y

#SpringSentiments Day 21: Things remain #precarious with this pandemic, even after one year has passed. What is the situation like, where you are, Litsy friends?

Eggs

TrishB Vaccination programme seems to be working. But the last year has been horrendous, we have approx 150k deaths, depending which stats you read. Just reopened non essential shops and outdoor eating. 3y

CaroPi Here is terrible. People do not use mask, do not protect themselves. Stats just go up 😔 and still they are some who believe vaccines are not important 🤦‍♀️ 3y

BarbaraBB All adults in my country should be vaccinated before July. Next week outdoor dining opens again and the shops open again. Finally there seems to be some perspective! 3y

Found this one on the new bookshelf at the library. Very informative and important reading. There‘s so much that could have been done differently and so much that can be done going forward. #nonfiction #librarybook #science

So this came up on my phone this morning.

KVanRead Wow. I feel like that applies to the whole country right now. Stay safe 💜 3y

Skygoddess1 @KVanRead I agree, there doesn‘t really seem to be any place in the country that is safe. Thanks, I try to limit my excursions as much as possible 3y

StillLookingForCarmenSanDiego 😬 stay safe. 3y

Nute Seems like it should be a nationwide alert. Stay safe!💕 3y
