Well the ‘Rona finally came a-calling to our household. DD has it.
Sorry to hear that! Hope she gets over it soon and with minimal issues.
My son, wife and two children had it a few weeks ago. Luckily the children recovered super quickly. My son had it the worst but was over it within a little over a week. Each one of them had totally different symptoms.

I know it's crazy.
The one constant from people I know who had it is extreme fatigue. That's how I knew she had it yesterday - she kept complaining of how tired she was. Then when she spiked a fever I was like, ok - time to test.
Really surprised that the school board is going to wait another month to vote on masks, even though two members requested a vote tomorrow.
Lindsay Mahaffey seems to just do whatever she wants.
They are required to vote monthly and they just voted on 2/1. She is following the rules the GA laid out requiring schools board vote monthly on mask mandates. If the 2 board members ( I have only see Karen Carter named) had enough support they could move up the vote but they don't, so it waits until the 3/1 meeting. You make it sound like Mahaffey is making up the rules, when she if following them. BTW, didn't Karen Carter vote for making just a week before she decided she wanted to hold another vote?

They are required to vote at LEAST monthly. There is nothing to stop them from voting again if things have changed.
US: Case rate of 240K/1MM = 24%; Death rate of 2,856/1MM
NC: case rate of 242K/1MM - 24%; death rate of 2,077/1MM
Wake County: 221K/1MM - 22%; death rate of 1,000/1MM
it's time for Jim Martin, Matt Calabria and MAB to declare victory and make everything optional.
I would rather them be disgustingly political and claim their policies worked and that's why Wake County was ~1/3 of US case fatality rate than see them extend this **** 2 more weeks.
The whole thing is such a joke. The schools don't care and don't even want to know about cases and make up their own rules when their is an exposure. DD has been exposed so many times this year, sometimes different exposures within days and every time it's a different rule. My sister has had a number of positives in her class, which the kids have told her, and when she asks the office if they want the info they're like "nope".
My DD wears a mask everywhere she goes. Literally everywhere, if she's at a restaurant she doesn't take it off till she gets her food. She's asleep down the hall having gone to bed with a 100.4 temp last night.

Let's stop this charade already.
Yeah...my wife, on a weekly basis, goes into 3 or 4 different schools in addition to holding her own classes a few days a week. She's been doing that, basically, since September/October of 2020. She did mostly wear N95's til she was vaccinated in April. She's had coughing kids in her lap that tested positive, had who knows how many exposures, never got sick, never tested positive, and she was getting tested all the time, weekly at least.
A week ago Sunday, she woke up with a cold; both the free rapid .Gov test and a PCR test she took Monday came back negative, she was sick all week. Wednesday she was exposed by two friends, unintentionally, but didn't find out til late Thursday when their tests came back. Friday she woke up and said "Something feels off. Not right, and I can't taste my peanut butter." Sure enough, Friday evening she took another .gov issued rapid and it's shining positive. Meanwhile I haven't gotten sick, despite taking zero precautions around her.
