Give our dentists their credit- as soon as I got off the chair- her assistant was spraying and wiping down everything!
Our dentist wore a medical mask and a visor - so all precautions were taken at that end- only the one other person when my wife was in the waiting room- wearing a mask but constantly coughing- I think I would have said something!

So I bought a 35is with all the toys to play with.

Surely it's Ronk that needs spoiling?
PS. Hope he's wearing a mask when he is typing his post on here

I’ve retreated to my cave as much as possible

Sorry to hear that Ron.
Wishing your wife all the best, and hoping you can avoid it.

Thanks
I think there are quite a lot on the Forum who've had the dreaded lurgy now - Hopefully the jabs will help reduce the effects.
I'm just annoyed that having been very careful for the entire period, that due to a selfish, couldn't care attitude of some idiot, he has passed it onto house and more than likely hid dentist as well.
He will have caused a significant inconvenience to quite a few folk.

Three things I hate in the modern world.......Covid, estate agents and car salesmen (not necessarily in that order).
I feel for you Ron. Nothing worse than doing all the right things for almost 3 years, then being kicked in the teeth at the 11th hour. Best wishes to Mrs Ron.
I have a friend who's wife caught covid a year or so ago. They live in a tiny cottage and spent all of their time together as there was no escape. He didn't catch it, so who knows how it works?

All good things come to those who wait. I'm really impatient which explains a lot.

No disrespect intended at all, but the chances of hiding away from it for ever more were pretty remote tbh.
Doesn't mean I support the selfish tw*t and I hope your missus gets over it well.
In a weird kind of way I hope you get it very mildly Ron, as it will boost your immunity, but I fully understand your concerns.
I consider myself fairly fit but I've had it twice now. First time left me exhausted for two days and second time was just like a standard heavy cold.
So here's hoping you either avoid it or get it manageably enough to be beneficial in the long run.
Best wishes to Mrs Ron.

I was hoping that we could avoid it long enough until we got the oldie booster jab which is soon to be dished out.
My concerns are that while her ladyship is in generally good health, any chest infection seem to effect her badly and require lots of anti biotics to clear it - In my case, I don't know how it would effect me with my fairly recent stay in hospital with pneumonia (bacterial)
One thing for certain - worrying won't help! :rofl
If you hear nothing for a while then you know something gone tits up.

You must be f****** joking!
Dentists and dental nurses take cross infection extremely seriously, (not to mention the GDC) dental surgeries have had serious decontamination procedures applied to them for decades, well before Covid.

Well the Covid bug got me eventually - I tried to keep out of her way but I suppose infection was inevitable.
I’ve been feeling off colour for a few days but soldiered on testing daily but got a Red line this morning,
