Anxiety and anger.

I’ve been up all night for the second night in a row so this might not be the most coherent rant.

Why is there no recourse for people with symptoms who don’t test/isolate until they want help?

A member of DH’s family has infected his entire family, two are in hospital, one is very ill at home.. unsure of the status of a good few of them besides positive. Me, DH and 1DC are positive and there’s no way to isolate from the other DC, both SN and too young to leave unsupervised. 12 people total infected.. close contact over a week with “its just a cold” when they turned up with no intention to take a pcr until they wanted to, conveniently they only had to isolate a few days after they’d done all they wanted to.

DH has they view we would all get it eventually, I don’t care about the ifs. We’ll now miss important appointments, break routine which sets both dc’s back monumentally, risk admissions due to their health and mine. And yet there’s no recourse nothing just an oh well.

I have health anxiety and have made a point on being extremely careful throughout to protect my dc. We are double vacc’d but obviously they aren’t. I’m beyond mad, I don’t think I’ll be able to let it go like he has.

I am also beyond sick of people saying 'it is just a cold' when the symptoms in vaccinated people are basically cold symptoms Confused

I hope you all feel better soon Flowers and I hope the family members who are in hospital recover.

I don't know how you deal with the feelings of frustration/anger, but I think it is understandable to have them if someone was cavalier.
