i picked up covid at some point in my last couple days in edinburgh. started feeling it the morning of my trip home and got steadily worse over the 7 hour plane journey; confirmed with a rapid test when i landed

this variant is a bad one folks. you do not want it. get boosted if you can, don’t show up to shared spaces with symptoms, mask up in close quarters with lots of people 🙏

@chrisamaphone massively sore throat? Hope you feel better soon!
@ah yeah, it felt like i swallowed hot coals
