Covid Scared
Even though I want to go back to work I'm terrified of being sick again. My whole family thinks we had COVID before it ever became known to the general public end of last year. So we/I never got tested and I don't trust those tests. They aren't accurate. I hope I can find work from home jobs! I can write/type but lack any other viable skills to do from home. (other than a degree in production/advertising art)
Hi @Kathy Anderson - it is a bit nerve-wracking thinking about having to go back to work in the midst of this pandemic. The best thing you can do to keep yourself safe is to follow the CDC recommendations:
- Wash your hands regularly with warm water and soap
- Wear a mask (changed out daily)
- Remain 6 feet apart from others when possible
- Remove potentially contaminated clothing when you return home, and jump in the shower as soon as you can
Here is a helpful article that my coworker, @Kai Dickerson wrote about how to stay healthy on your commute

It's funny you should say that I think we had COVID before COVID was talked about. My parents had it so severely they couldn't breathe well. The doctor diagnosed both my parents as having bronchitis, but I knew it wasn't. Scary times for sure. Stay well my friend!!! @Kathy Anderson
