Recently I mean. DS is ECV and has stupidly decided to go on a big night out tomorrow. I can't sleep now for worrying. He's only had 2 jabs and has decided that he is done with it all and is not having any booster or third dose. He's young and daft and while he feels invincible I can't sleep for worrying. Anyone been clubbing and not caught it? It feels like the perfect covid soup. Sad

@Roselilly36

I really feel for the young people, awful for them, I have DS’ 20 & 18, it’s really difficult, I am classed as CEV too, but I want them to live their lives.
Same here - I’m CEV too and my dd is the one upthread that’s going out clubbing every night in Nottingham. I’ve been double jabbed and had my booster. She’s coming home for Christmas. I just want her to experience life the way I did.

Yes! Been on nights out, been for meals, been to concerts and NOT had covid. You need to chill out.

UnicornMug · 10/12/2021 07:55

OK, maybe I'm being a bit over the top. This new variant has spooked me, I know he's young but I just want him to be safe.

Husband went to a packed gig three weeks ago and didn’t get it…but has just tested positive after catching it from 6yo son- who caught it at school.

Do you know that most people are going out and living their lives and not catching covid every week? Hmm

GreenClock · 10/12/2021 07:59

Not a clubber but in the last three weeks I’ve been to a football match, a rugby match, a few different pubs and two different restaurants. Also my mate’s birthday party at her house with 25 others. Am having coffee in a busy cafe right now.

I can't understand why he won't get a booster though. Flu jab is an annual thing. Does he refuse that too.

Hippychicken1 · 10/12/2021 08:05

I went to a club in London two weeks ago over 3000 people
No Covid checks
Neither myself or anyone I was with have caught Covid

UnicornMug · 10/12/2021 08:06

He gets flu jab and we've had that argument. He just says "he's done with Covid" which apparently means also done with all sensible precautions too. Hmm

Kajjjer93 · 10/12/2021 08:34

Yeah me, one night out, four weddings and two theatre trips!

No positive test (however I did get Norovirus!)

Oblomov21 · 10/12/2021 08:38

I think you are over-reacting. Everyone I know had been out. I was out last night with 5 of my PNG for a Chinese.
Last week I was out at a big do.
What's the worst that could happen? Still plenty of time for 10 days isolation.

Chesneyhawkes1 · 10/12/2021 08:43

Yes works Xmas party. We went to a restaurant, then a busy pub and then a nightclub.

28 of us went. No one has caught Covid. Was end of November we went.

JorisBonson · 10/12/2021 08:48

Several times a month since we've been allowed, including big gigs. Not a sausage.

jpbee · 10/12/2021 08:48

I was out on Saturday, went to a nightclub which was full to capacity and is underground in a sort of basement so I doubt there is much airflow. Everyone was dancing and mingling.
Myself and my friend who I went with are fine, and have both done LF tests this week (her for work and me for visiting a relative) and don't appear to have caught it. She is triple vac and I am double vac.

ElizabethG81 · 10/12/2021 08:50

Yes, I've been out for meals, to bars, events at school, etc, and not caught it.

BigSandyBalls2015 · 10/12/2021 08:53

DD has been clubbing a lot and hasn’t caught it … despite sharing a drink with a friend one night who subsequently cane down with it.

Dreamstate · 10/12/2021 08:59

Been out almost every weekend to clubs or gigs with over 4000 people.

Also cinema and shops too.
Don't even sanitise the shopping baskets at supermarkets probably forget to wash my hands when I'm back and haven't used hand santiser for ages.

Still not caught it.

Incidentally some of my team went in and one of the guys had it so they all had to test. He got it from his kid.

So im going to carry on living my life to the fullest and going out.

I'm only double jabbed.

tallullabluebella · 10/12/2021 09:22

Numerous meals out/pub trips, 3 largish birthday parties, a formal dinner dance, holiday abroad and a huge indoor music festival. All on the last 12 weeks, both DH and I fine. I'm just as likely to catch it at work but haven't so far.
