DH is going to give us Covid!!!

[Dandy008]

DH has gone out for a friends birthday tonight.
He’s gone to Newcastle. It’s the first night out he’s had since our son was born 18 months ago.

I haven’t gone as I’m not ready to leave our son over night.

I have so far seen several snap chat updates from friends. They are in packed bars, dancing, hugging, singing.

Im so disappointed in him. I’ve tried to hard to avoid catching Covid and I really feel now like
DH is going to bring it home to me and our son!!

If @NannyAndJohn had their way I would be have seen my family since March 2020.

Work out of home, very little make and no social distancing! We all just get on with it and live as a family.

Oh FFS get a hold of yourself! MN is full of increasingly manic posts tonight from people who need to have a reality check.

I have to remind myself constantly that MN is not real life. I don’t know anyone who behaves like I read on here. Especially @NannyAndJohn!

This thread is about the OP'S husband behaving like a twat, not about the OP's weight, which is none of your bloody business

She brought it up as an answer to is she vulnerable!

Its a known risk factor for serious Covid, but oh no, its her dhs fault for having a night out

@RoseRedRoseBlue

Oh FFS! Get a hold of yourself.

MN if full of increasingly careless people tonight.
People who need to have a reality check and understand that we’re still very much in a pandemic and not everyone is ready / comfortable to forget that.

@Nicknacky I honestly believe Nanny has some bizarre agenda, or desperately needs an intervention.

@NannyAndJohn

I'd get him to isolate in a spare room for 10 days and take a daily test.

😅😅😅

@RoseRedRoseBlue It’s bizarre, isn’t it?

@Bryonyshcmyony

No… I didn’t.

My BMI doesn’t make me “vulnerable”.

It’s might put me at slightly more risk, but I’m not vulnerable.

You were the one suggesting I was worried because of my BMI, which is just not true.

So what exactly are you worried about if you aren’t vulnerable?

@Dandy there is a big gap between being aware and trying to control the lives and actions of others.

So why mention you are obese? If you aren't vulnerable what's the issue?

@Nicknacky

So what exactly are you worried about if you aren’t vulnerable?

@Nicknacky

I don’t want to catch Covid.

Just because I’m not vulnerable doesn’t mean I don’t have to worry about Covid.

It affects everyone.

Newcastle is great for a Saturday night out. I’d definitely recommend it :)

Relax, he's not been out for 18 months, you chose not to get a sitter. You are double vaccinated, it's pretty good protection but you can help yourself going forward by getting your bmi down, not easy I need to as well.

@Bryonyshcmyony

My sister in law wasn’t vulnerable, but still spent 11 days in the ICU!!

@AlecTrevelyan006

I don’t disagree

@Dandy008 Do you or H not work out of home then?

You don’t go food shopping?

You don’t visit friends?

Your kid won’t go to nursery?

The list is endless..

The media have done an amazing job at putting the fear of god into some people.

@Wanttocry

Yes, of course I did.

He assured me he’d wear a mask and keep his distance from strangers.

Well, in that case I’d have been annoyed at the time that he was promising something that to be honest was always going to be virtually impossible on a night out. You can’t realistically promise to keep away from strangers while in a bar.

Did you insist he wear a mask as a condition? It was stupid of him to agree to that, he’s allowed to have fun and you’re both fully vaxxed.

Also with attitudes like this, we’ll be in forever pandemic mode.

@Nicknacky

I don’t go to the supermarket but to fair I didn’t even prior to Covid. Always had deliveries.

Yes my son goes to nursery, and yes I work in an office (DH works from home)
My office still follows social distancing with desks etc.

But there’s a difference between doing things we have to do, and just going out to busy places and rubbing shoulders with 100’s of strangers.

Surely you can see that and understand where I am coming from.

Sorry to hear that OP.

the thing is, you can’t expect someone to follow covid restrictions as soon as they start drinking booze. They just revert back to pre covid behaviour…..

I read piers Morgan’s account of catching covid at the football. It’s good that he’s written about it, shame it’s the daily mail 😂

There is always going to be a tipping point when, without restrictions, our exposure to covid is increased.

Thank Goodness for the sensible, rational people on here who can exercise common sense.
