Today I tested positive for COVID. So far I have only experienced mild symptoms. I am very grateful that I am double vaccinated with a booster. COVID is still here - continue to follow health guidelines: mask in public settings and if you have symptoms -stay home and get tested. pic.twitter.com/veNXXf149G
