Can I offer a recommendation? Paxlovid. My husband took it when he had Covid last December and he felt better and tested negative 3 days later. I took it when I got Covid along with you and everyone else in NY a couple weeks ago (I had vacation plans and was determined not to miss them). I had a runny nose for two days and then felt fine, tested negative after maybe 2.5 days? I was worried about the rebound but didn’t experience it and neither did my husband (and I think it’s statistically not that common actually). I’ve become a real evangelist for it!
Oh nooo. That really sucks and is stupid. I called NYC H+H because I’m pretty sure they are liberal with the prescriptions but I don’t think they’ll prescribe outside of New York State.
Oh gosh, Claire, what timing. Those days of being sick with a sick kid (I only have one and I spend most of it crying and reminding myself to take deep breaths) are…I don’t even have words. They just are. So I can guess in lieu of warm thoughts, I send you breath 💕

lol the doctor I saw refused to prescribe me paxlovid
BOOOOOOO
I’m taking care of two small kids alone and can barely move but apparently this doesn’t qualify you for a prescription!
That's wild, and I'm sorry you dealt with that. I hope you're all feeling better!

I took Paxlovid last week! Also started feeling better in ~3 days.
Yay! If we’re going to be stuck forever with this thing, at least there’s a drug for it?
