I can still taste things a bit but my sense of smell is 0%. Kids are feeling noticeably better though which is great ๐Ÿ˜…

In a further twist, instead of our friend giving COVID to Mr P, it may have actually been the other way around. An acquaintance of his wanted to come over and he told them they couldn't because COVID. Apparently they said (imagine flippant ditzy voice) "Oh I've had that for weeks! Can't seem to get rid of it!" And then proceeded to regale him with anecdotes about people they've seen in recent weeks, including their very elderly parents and people we've regularly been in contact with! ๐Ÿ˜  Some people are just jerks.
