I tested positive two weeks ago. The local healthcare giant has a covid

program and put me on the Pfizer drug Paxlovid which is supposed to protect against hospitalizations in older folks (I'm 73). Didn't really have any significant symptoms the first week but his past Saturday I developed itchy eyes and runny nose like a sever allergy (I normally don't suffer from allergies) and no antihistamines or cold medications seem to help. Still dealing with it today.

This is what happens when they drop the proof of a COVID negative test.
