McBrides and COVID-19

It was bound to happen, the McBrides are involved in this pandemic. Wow, I never actually fathomed that one of us could get sick from this coronavirus, it's just kind of shocking.

Self-isolation


A few weeks ago my Mom felt unwell and had a low fever, our first thought was COVID-19, but we didn't want to think that. after a few days of symptoms, my mom decided to get screened .then tested for COVID-19. 6 days later the results came back. Negative. But the doctors told us that is very likely she has COVID-19, due to the test's 33% false-negative rate. So she self-isolated and we bleached the house.


But so far, today, the world hit 3 million cases, 200,000 deaths, and the U.S. passed 1 million cases. ( as of April 27th)School has been canceled for the rest of the year, Texas tries to reopen, Kim-Jong-Un is presumably dead. Remember to stay at home. wash your hands, any one of us could get caught in this pandemic.
