Guess what my husband brought home? #covid #xbb116 from #India. ✈️ landed 6am 🕕 today. He 1st-time tested [+] w/Symptoms: Sore Throat &🥴cough. Doc informed. Case reported. Waiting for #paxlovid. #n95 doubled-up and windows-downed for me. 😷
#CovidIsNotOver @TogetherWeMask
@TogetherWeMask @DemeTech @TheWHN @Survivor_Corps I just want to add one more thing: my husband is triple-boosted, and had the latest bivalent booster. He still caught the 🦠— this is his first time. Let's pay attention to XBB.1.16 please. #travelsafely Wear N95 even if you go nude anywhere!
Making soup 🥣 for my love…hope he will recover quickly 🙏🏽😷
Day 3 back from #india, Hubby stayed home with #COVID19 as I went to my #kidneys’ checkup. Glad to find @rogosin requiring masks and @Uber driver masked. Bags of N95s I packed for people weren’t essential but appreciated. #CovidIsNotOver @TogetherWeMask
#KeepMasksinHealthcare
Forgot to add—I tested negative before I left for my kidneys’ checkup! N95+ HEPA filters in every room+2 air purifiers are working hard to keep me and my community safe! My husband is recovering! Very faint line now. Thanks for caring about us! 💕 @TogetherWeMask #CovidIsNotOver
Day6, bivalent-boosted, hubby finished a course of PAXLOVID, still showing a super faint line but no symptoms. He is still in isolation with windows open, air purifiers, HEPA filters. I am living in a n95, keeping zero contact between us, communicating via📱 wish us luck 🍀
Though no more symptoms for 2days, hubby is still in strict isolation! We don’t share space. Cheering him on with my cooking!
Day 7 He tests [-] and so do I. We still wear our N95s at home, not sharing space, eating separately, windows open+ 3 air purifiers and HEPA filters. Thanks for all the warm wishes! Happy Holidays! 🐣🌻
Day11 back from India, my Bivalent-boosted Husband #Covid Rebounds after 3 RAT[-] + PCR [-]—symptoms-free since Day6🤯🦠 I test [-] (PCR+RAT) 🙏🏽Both of us isolating in our N95s for everyone’s sake.
See you at the virtual meeting

D12 back from India, BiV-boosted husband started #COVID #Rebound yesterday (6D after a course of #Paxlovid) Taking Doc @aspcorthals' advice, I’m disinfecting the apt. cleaning frequently-touched surfaces, incl. door handles. Fomites ARE a significant means of transmission🧴😷🧵
In close contact settings like households (and by implication, in health care) — fomites apparently ARE a significant means of transmission.
😷 Wear N95s together
🧴 Disinfect frequently-touched surfaces
🤲 Clean hands regularly

Doc @aspcorthals inspired me to try my best to get rid of our unwanted visitor #XBB116🦠🦵 Even though today is too hot in New York to do this. 🤬😷

D14 Back from India, Husband Rebounding after completed a course of PAX‼️Bi-boosted, he tested [+] for 5-6D; [-] for 4D. Rebound started on Day 11. Doing N95-best to stay #COVID19-free under the same roof-sucks being #immunocompromised🙁Wish me luck🍀 pay attention to #XBB116
Day 15 back from India, still positive, bi-valent boosted husband stays in isolation, though symptoms-free. After cooking and serving the meal on a tray… I have no appetite to eat by myself. I hate #xbb116 What’s the isolation guideline for rebounds @CDCgov ? Please help us.
After #Paxlovid, my husband tested negative for 2 days. His doctor asked why he tested on the 3rd day, given he had no symptoms.
“My wife is #immunocompromised,” he explained. Today is Day 16, faint line showing. He says he doesn’t mind wearing a mask forever to keep me safe.
Day 17 back from India, first negative after #COVID19 rebounded! Need one more negative to leave isolation. Over protective of his #immunocompromised wife, my bi-valent boosted hero kicked me out of his hideout as soon as I snapped a selfie 📱wish me luck 🍀
I escaped! 😷💛Day19 back from India, bi-valent boosted husband tested [-] 2X (48 HRS apart). The Rebound is OVER! We followed the instruction from his primary physician, who’s also a pulmonary specialist. My hubby did everything he could to protect his #immunocompromised wife.
Asymptomatic can still infect! If my husband hasn’t tested the 3rdDay after 2[-], he would never have detected the #Paxlovid Rebound followed by 6 RAT[+]. I would be in trouble if he had left isolation. PHED ends on 5/11. Get Free Tests.
Watch reel!
