Cousin's 17yo had #pneumonia in August.

Husband's client's 17yo currently has pneumonia.

Family friend 11yo has pneumonia, #strep, and double ear infections.

Cousin's pediatrician says it's not normal for kids this age to be getting pneumonia, but they're seeing more and more cases.

My doctor told me yesterday: "COVID is, of course, the main thing we're seeing right now, but it tends to test negative in a lot of cases (negative, negative, negative, then positive--so dumb!)."

So, #covid and #strep are running rampant among teachers and students at 11yo's school.

I had to pick her up early yesterday because she had a migraine.

She stayed home today with general ickiness & low energy. Temp 1° above normal-for-her.

She and Ed just tested negative for covid. They'll test again Sunday evening.

I started running a fever this evening. I'll test tomorrow evening.

I have been out of #CovidJail for 2 weeks, 4 days.
