Masks don't protect you. They're more correctly termed face diapers because they catch what you exhale and keep it from spreading to other people.

This is a technical forum. Not a medical one. It violates the forum rules. Has been reported accordingly.
Admins please take action.

You forgot the joke icon… right? Right…?

For the nth time, we really need a sarcasm tag/icon. I can't tell if you are joking or serious. If serious, then I'll just let my reputation do the talking. Even programmers get sick.

I just reviewed the forum rules stickied at the top, and I dont see any rules listed there that his post violates. In fact, this discussion topic seems to fall pretty squarely within the intended purpose of this forum:
- The lounge is for the CodeProject community to discuss things of interest to the community, and as a place for the whole community to participate. It is, first and foremost, a respectful meeting and discussion area for those wishing to discuss the life of a Software developer.
Getting sick with the ongoing pandemic seems to be of interest to the community and part of the life of a software dev.
What forum rule do you think was violated here?

Three of our family had contracted Covid in January this year, the Omicron variant. Really drained out all the energy.
Take all precautions and get well soon.

Again, for the confused among us, this forum is a technical one. NOT a medical one.
There are dedicated forums online for the discussion on subjects like fashion, sports, travel or health concerns and anxieties. There is also professional support for those who feel they need it only a google away.
On this forum we discuss subjects exclusively on computer science/computer engineering.
Read the policy again just as you would read the documentation of an API and find the bug in your thought process if you feel opposed to the above.
Admins/Moderators please take action. There are users here who shall not allow the decades-long quality of this forum to be compromised.

The note above this forum specifies what's OK. Technical posts, at least in the form of questions and lengthy posts, are actually to be avoided. There are technical posts about what people are working on, often to vent, but there are also Wordle results, cryptic crosswords, and jokes (usually puns). Yesterday, even a link to a cat video. It would be a dry site if every post had to be technical. The only things off-limits are topics that are likely to lead to flame wars or trolling.

OK, it's pretty obvious you are not kidding.

Do you mean the text at the top of this forum that reads:
Quote: Welcome to the Lounge
For discussing anything related to a software developer's life but is not for programming questions.
Now, read that a few times, mull it over, and find your own bug.
I suggest you also translate/lookup the word 'lounge' and better yet, go visit one and get a real experience. (of course wear a mask!) It might enlighten you and lighten you up a bit. Chill out.

This is "the lounge"; not a "technical forum".
OP is recounting a "personal" experience; that's what people "lounging" about sometimes do.

You seem to have a change of heart in the last few years - or is congratulating someone on their marriage, or posting a political video about the US president considered "technical" these days

I've had it 3 times confirmed, maybe 4.
First time I got it I was exhausted, had heavy flu symptoms and it took 10 days to clear up.
After 2 vaccines and getting it a couple of times, it's now just a minor headache and some tiredness for 2-3 days.

But you can’t get there until you figure out where your keys are!
If you can't laugh at yourself - ask me and I will do it for you.

When I went to find my keys I noticed the garbage needed taking out, out my way out to the garbage I met the neighbor and he went on and on until the mail person came. So I collected the mail and went back inside. The better half asked me to hang a picture so I had to go to the shop to get drill motor and while I was there I noticed that my new CNC machine needed cleaning so I went to turn on the compressor. So I blew that off, got the drill motor went inside, hung the picture then layed down to take a nap.
Why is it I can never get anything done?

My wife does this already!  I honestly don't know how I'd get anywhere without her.

Meh, I'm irked because I'm in the middle of a project, right on the cusp of making it do something fantastic and I can't work on my code because my code is very ... loud, and hubby is sleeping.
He can sleep for 12 hours at a stretch.
My loud code does not want to wait. My little 8 bit speaker is eager to sound like a metal garbage can being dragged down a gravel road.
For some reason he gets mad when that wakes him up. I don't understand it. 
To err is human. Fortune favors the monsters.
