I lost my sense of taste on Christmas Eve. Had a test. Results Boxing Day, negative. I also had access to a rapid flow test from a medic friend who left it on the doorstep and that was also negative.
Since then have been a bit hot and snotty. Now DP has come down with the snotty nose.
The only thing is we have hardly been anywhere. Where do you think is the most likely place I got it? I'm ECV and would like to know so I don't catch covid!
I accept it isn't covid though I am not seeing anybody in case the tests are wrong. are common colds easier to catch?
We have a dog who we walk and we do chat to people at a distance. Groceries delivered. Had a plumber over but we ldidn't see him - he went in the front room and I handed cash to him at arm's length at his van.
I sat around a chiminea with five people (tier 2) but I was seven feet clear of them either side of me!
No kids.
Any ideas?! Is it people stroking my dog on walks?! Or an airborne cold?!
