Thanks, Howard, for letting us know. I was turning an awful shade of blue!
Glad that you are all OK, if not well.

Just in from daughter Katie in Victoria:------
Ian and I have had a rollercoaster of a few days that we can now share
(as always apologies for the length):
As you know, we got notification on Friday about our dentist's office
and a positive COVID 19 case there. Ian, Clementine and Eloise were sick
during the week, but we didn't think anything of it, until getting the
notice on Friday. I also started showing signs of sickness (sore throat,
dry cough, low grade fever, shortness of breath...). Not good signs in
these times!!
So, on Saturday I spent three hours trying to get through on 811 and
another four hours on hold waiting to talk to a nurse (I was told it
would be six, so four wasn't so bad!!). Based on our symptoms (Ian was
also low grade fever, chest pain, shortness of breath, etc. and both
girls were sore throats and runny noses), we were given the coveted
COVID 19 screening clinic number, but told they weren't open until
Monday at 830 am...
In the off chance someone was working, I called on Sunday morning and
left a message. Within an hour they called back and scheduled all four
of us for COVID 19 tests later that morning, on account of our contact
with a confirmed case and subsequent symptoms. So, off we went for drive
thru testing. It was intense and awful. The girls were champs. They too
got swabs all the way up their noses to swab the backs of their throats
ðŸ˜"
The last 48 hours have been agony, but happily I just called and we were
confirmed negative for COVID 19 ðŸ˜...ðŸ˜... I'm positive Flu B (whatever
that means!!), but at least not COVID 19. So, there you have it! We
figured best to not burden you until we knew the outcome 😊ðŸ'ðŸ»
Love to all!! x
Needless to say we are very relieved.
