    Nagets ko si Cathy he he he when i also got my negative PCR test result, next worry ko naman is accurate kaya? Baka timing of the test naman ang mali.

    I just finished my 14 days quarantine, hindi nagka symptoms. Ayun back to regular programming nanaman.

    From the day I was exposed until matapos ko 14 days everything seemed to be normal never ako nakaramdam ng kahit ano.

    Baka its all in the mind Cathy.

    Honestly, you can’t be blamed for this paranoia. Aside from the fear of dying, there is also the possibility of infecting our loved ones & the cost of treatment. Just to addto the confusion, persistent skin infection is another symptom of Covid
    COVID-19 long haulers face persistent skin problems

    Try ko nga para mabilis. Safe kaya sa Mercury sa 32nd st? Sabi kasi friends ko don't go there kasi tapat ng St Luke's. My Mom said wala na ko mapupuntahan sa paranoia ko hehe

    Kaya ayoko talaga lumalabas kasi everytime I do, nagbibilang ako ng 14 days hoping I don't develop any symptons, lalo na since nilagnat ako, timing pa one week from the time I last went out kaya nakakatakot

    Exactly, I live with seniors kasi and even healthy people get damaged from covid so the effect will stay with you forever, yung hirap sa katawan at expense

    BTT: Naiinis na ko sa buhay ko. Parang mas lalo ako nawalan ng life since I lost my job. Gising - internet - tulog - repeat. Hirap na hirap pa ko matulog. My life is not making any progress for 2020

    Pwede din pala sa Jaka Plaza tapos dadalaw ako sa maternal lola ko sa MMP.

    What a life talaga na simpleng pag punta sa Mercury pino problema ko



    Napipikon na ko
    There is a drive thru Mercury drug in EDSA makati Northbound just after Kalayaan street. you will be in your car all the time so less interaction. just wipe the items once you receive them for piece of mind.

    Same mindset. greatest risk is putting down the mask for any reason while outside your home or getting in an enclosed space with any one outside your home for a period of time.

    True, If you are alone outside the chances of getting the virus is zero. Even with some people outside as long as they are not shouting and wear masks, practice some social distancing then the risk is low. You see a lot of people now jogging/cycling/walking with some even using valved mask/lowering the mask to breathe yet you don't get reports of them getting sick.
    Lower risk for places like an outdoor mall like Hi-street BGC, lessen the time inside a store and just be weary of your surroundings including things you touch.

    My friend mentioned also I never noticed it though. I wanna go down sana because I need to buy something for my second Mom and I need to pick the item, and 32nd st is one of the most complete in stock Mercury that I know of Glorietta also but it is always crowded

    I need to meet with my lawyer and I'm thinking nga where I could meet him (his office is in Ortigas and I do not wanna go there) I was thinking in any restaurant na outside seating in Makati or BGC but I can't drink or eat naman since I never put down my mask

    That was what I thought when I went to the market (outdoor kaya safe) The problem is some vendors do not wear masks. It blows my mind that they never got sick considering they interact with so many people. I almost died when one vendor used her saliva to open the plastic bag where she placed the items I bought. I am normally not squeamish with that, but not during the China virus time

    In my line of work, there is are places I go to where I deal with a lot of underpriviledged people. There isn’t one case of Covid in those areas & I wear protection for fear that I may even be the one who brings the virus there in case I am asympto. But there were a couple of times when my mask got soaked & I had to remove it, 2 of them were chatting with me so close. Thankfully, nothing happened. Also now, I don’t let anyone ride with me in the car, yung mga sasabay ba.

    Glorietta now a days isn't as crowded as before thou i havn't gone there on the weekends. i also used to enjoy going to the Mercury drug at 32nd street because it is always stocked plus free parking. Try going there in non peak hours like late evening or very early morning para less people to interact.

    Hi street area in BGC has several coffee shops with outdoor seating. The amount of people going to that place has also dwindled.

    Open wet markets should be a bit safe; usually meat/fish vendor in those markets may distance kayo because of the table with the food items separating you plus most wet markets today have open ceiling to ventilate the air/smell inside pero yung ginawa nung vendor to open with his teeth is a big no-no.

    What if they are mostly asymptomatic kaya? My sukis found it so weird that I did not go out since March when everything is so normal there. None of my sukis got sick because they are all still there and not everyone is wearing a mask nga. May seniors pa nga

    Re pasabay, the husband of my local VP told me a few days ago that they also had a scare because her husband made pasabay a colleague whose child was positive and later on the colleague tested positive too! Good thing her husband was negative.

    Yes I go Mercury 32nd talaga because they always have complete stock. Also, the pharmacists there are nice to me, they don't write in the booklet anymore and they let me buy more than the prescription for seniors. Hassle naman kasi talaga pabalik balik. When they don't have stock, they order from another branch and I just pick it up there. Nagtataka lang ako, before it used to be 24 hrs and now it's until 9 pm na lang.

    Maybe I will just go to Mercury Glorietta and then meet my lawyer in Greenbelt 2 na lang para outdoor seating. Since covod I don't like to park in basements so I will just park in GB

    The market that I go to kasi since I am suki with them lumalapit talaga sila sakin and helps me choose the good produce at medyo masikip daanan so you tend to bump with people pa rin. Yung vendor she licked her thumb and then used that to open the plastic, que horror! Sayang because I miss the market and fat lab used to get a lot of freebies

    Simpleng pagbili sa Mercury ang daming planning and decision making na What a way to live life, iisipin ko na lang we are still lucky to be healthy. This is not quality life though, I hope this pandemic will be over soon.

    Relieved. Finally got what I needed to return to the US without issues. One of my Aunts was supposed to bring this coming home to Manila, but because of the China virus, walang nakauwi so no choice but to mail it. We were so anxious it might get lost.

    I am also thankful to my Aunt who paid the immigration fees. She gifted me a trip to NY but thanks to China that is not gonna happen soon!

    Hopefully with a Biden presidency things will be better in the US

    If a person can’t manage risks, then he/she will be doomed to live in doubt and fear. As Yoda said before - Fear is the path to the dark side. Fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate, hate leads to suffering.
