Best of luck.
Hopefully with catching it early, your youth, overall health and pharmaceutical regimen you will not become a long hauler and get over it quick.

Thx. Much better today. Broke the 101 fever last night and slept OK. Fever is gone, everything is clearing up. Same regime today and added a few others. Sister from Sedona brought some natural remedies. Feeling way better

Why do so many free Americans want to be tested?
Beyond travel and venue admission, many folks want to know if they have the virus because they don't want to spread the virus to friends, family and strangers and make things even worse. They don't want to be part of the problem. Hopefully, once they know they have the virus, they intend to take extra precautions to prevent further spread. Not everyone, but lots of folks.

is that related to what is known as the "long hauler "?
No, more like sudden death. A cytokine storm is a very dangerous, out of control, acute immune response that has been the cause of death in many early COVID infections until Drs began watching out for it.

My motivation was if I have to stand in line for over an hour to get the kid tested I'm getting tested too. Last thing I need is to repeat that performance. Although if I get sick at this point there's no need to test. I'll know what it is.
Well this sucks. Hope everyone has gotten where they need to be...
More than 1,900 Christmas Eve flights are canceled globally amid the spread of Omicron
Thousands of would-be travelers received the same troubling message on Thursday: a last-minute cancellation of their Christmas Eve flight because of the recent spike of Omicron cases.
United Airlines canceled at least 150 flights scheduled to leave dozens of airports on Friday — along with 44 more that were supposed to take off on Saturday, according to Flight Aware. Other airlines, including Delta, JetBlue and Allegiant, did the same.
In Australia, dozens of flights were canceled at airports in the major cities of Sydney and Melbourne as coronavirus cases in the country surged to their highest since the start of the pandemic.
The number of cancellations globally as of Friday morning added up to more than 1,900, the Flight Aware website showed.
It was the latest blow to the holiday season, mainly caused by the new and highly transmissible Omicron variant, which now accounts for more than 70 percent of new coronavirus cases in the United States. Nearly 170,000 people are testing positive every day in the country, a 38 percent increase over the last two weeks, according to The New York Times’s coronavirus tracker.
In its statement, United said that Omicron’s “direct impact on our flight crews and the people who run our operation” had led to the cancellations. Crew members have been calling in sick, according to a spokesman, Joshua Freed, who said that United had alerted customers as soon as it was able to. And while Mr. Freed said he did not expect the airline to cancel more flights, it remained a possibility.
“We are really managing this day by day,” he said. “There may be some more flight cancellations for Saturday. It’s possible.”
The airline said it was working to rebook as many people as possible in time for the holidays.
Customers took to social media to air their grievances about the cancellations.
In Australia, which has recorded more than 500 Omicron cases, many airline staff members are unable to work after being identified as close contacts of positive coronavirus cases, airline officials said. Under government requirements, they are required to isolate for seven days.
“A large number of our frontline team members are being required to test and isolate as close contacts given the increasing number of cases in the general community,” a representative for Jetstar Airways said by email on Friday. “As a result, we have had to make some late adjustments to our schedule.”
Eighty flights arriving at and departing on Friday from Sydney, the country’s most populous city, had been canceled, a spokesman for the airport said, out of a total of 500.
According to Melbourne Airport’s flight-tracking website, more than 70 flights departing or arriving from the airport on Friday had been scrapped, out of 700 flights. Brisbane Airport said that 45 flights had been canceled.
