Dr. Lane and the Mild Case of COVID-19

Yep, I am infected with COVID-19.  The mildest, nicest infection of this terrible disease you have ever seen.  Cute like a baby.  I wish every cold I ever got was this minor.

A cough each hour (just a little one).  A little phlegm.  A few minor body aches.  A tiny headache.  I found out Christmas Eve as I was finishing my holiday planning by picking up the food with my wife.

I am very healthy so I do not want you to think that you will be as lucky as me if you get sick.  Stay away from sick people!

I have the nasty DELTA version and not the minor OMICRON version, except that my symptoms are more “omicron-like”.  This is according to the pharmacist.

My daughter got me tested because she knows many people who will get her anything: people she met growing up in West New York, NJ or people she has met as a reporter on TV.  There were no tests available except for her.  The pharmacist tested me in my car in front of his store.

I am vaccinated and got my booster. My vaccinations and booster were given to me promptly because I am a doctor.  Not everyone can get this.  I got my wife and family vaccinated early because of my status but the booster is much harder to get for them unless I am willing to lie.

I eat a very healthy diet and I have a wife who nags me over every food I eat, all the time.  You couldn’t buy this level of devotion.

So how did I catch it?  First, does it really matter how I caught it?  I see 10-25 people a day and no matter how careful I am I am not invulnerable.  This illness had been around for 2 years and this is my first case of it.  

Several people I have known have died from it and I grieve for each of them.  This will not happen to me.

I am also lucky in that I can isolate in a room in my home with magazines, TV, this laptop, and my wife to bring me food and take away dishes.  My dog misses me and is constantly trying to sneak in and see me – he is persistent!

I will be retested on Wednesday.

Please get vaccinated if you have not been already vaccinated.  EAT HEALTHY which is the best protection.

If you have COVID you will know it.  There is no ‘invisible COVID’ (medical term “subclinical’).  Do not waste anyone’s time being tested unless you have reason to believe you have been exposed to the virus.
