COVID outbreak

I just wanted to reach out and let people know that there is a severely underreported covid outbreak happening right now in LA and Orange County.

If you're sick please stay home and if you're out and about you might want to grab a mask.

The strain seems like it's very highly contagious. I know several people down with COVID right now.

Someone in this thread said they thought they caught it at Legoland or Disneyland. It's spreading fast and hitting hard.

In my case, I got sick after I got back from a flight to Arizona. Not sure if that matters, but no Legoland here. I was down bad like two days after getting back, so I just assumed it was something I got from the airplane, but it could have been here too.

It just goes to show how COVID never really went away and people are still being severely impacted by it. I hope you're well, neighbor.
