I was notified tonight that someone I transported on Wednesday has tested positive for Covid. They were masked, I was masked and gloved. I had the first round of the covid vaccine on the 20th which should give me 80-90% efficacy against the virus. So far I have no symptoms and my temp is in my normal mid 97* range. I get a swab test on Wednesday. In the mean time I stay masked and do temperature monitoring.
Ah the life of a front line EMT ( hopefully not death)

Hopefully all the protections you were taking was good enough to prevent transmission. Gosh I hope you don't catch that crap.

Talked to my oldest daughter over X-mas and she caught it. Said she had flu systems and a fever for three days and then boom she felt fine. None of the six kids or her husband got any part of it either. Weird virus that's for sure and am glad for it (The Weirdest) right now.

I heard that the first shot only provides about 50% protection. It's the booster that ups it to 95% ish.

Congratulations! May the vaccine work as advertised!
Great News!
Yesterday, the Virginia Governor stated in a press conference that the vaccinating was going way to slowly. The state health dept would start taking back unused, ie: unneeded, vaccines and distribute it to organizations that would quickly “get needles into arms.. I’m ready!
