So today I recieved my positive covid result by text after doing a test this morning. i cannot lie, that I feel a bit scared and a bit lonely.
Obviously, with the new isolation rules, my university housemates are able to leave home and can do whatever they please, so long that they are negative. For me, I just have to stay inside for five days and test negative on the sixth.
It is strange, I never thought I would actually get the virus, because of how safe I have been. i always wear my mask and I test every week.
Until I went to the club this week. I was only testing so I could see my Grandfather this week by pcr, so I was surprised to find out I was positive. It explains the tiredness and lack of scent and taste.
Luckily I am surrounded by good people, who would support me even when I am feeling as low as I am now. I feel guilty that i have put a burden on them, but glad they are still able to do what they need to do.
This is when I would say the message of the story, but there is not one. Just be a decent human being and be honest. Right now I may feel grim, but I am grateful to be alive!
