Since the quarantine due to Covid-19, how often have you left your house? - Page 12

I almost never use my nose, so if I lost my sense of smell, it wouldn't be a big deal to me. I never smell food, I just eat it.

Is this the official covid-19 thread of the forums?

Well, Portugal recently went back to lockdown as we became the new hot-spot of the virus. I believe most of the latest infections were of the British strain. I think there's a Brazilian strain now though?

I haven't caught the virus, luckily. I've been careful and also only leave the house when I truly need to. I'm not going outside every single day. And when I do is to buy food or something. I also haven't set foot in a shopping mall or a restaurant in a long time now.

A someone who was diagnosed with depression half a year before the pandemic began I must say this wasn't that good of a time to get clinically depressed. I took antidepressants for over a year and have recently gotten off them. I'm supposed to be more physically active and try to improve my mood but that's quite difficult when the world is going through a nasty pandemic...

What quarantine? I leave my house every day. No mask, no problems. Not sickness. Flew to Indiana in July. No mask. Four flights. 6 days in town. No mask anywhere. Flew home. Drove to NH the following Saturday. Its the flu. Masks don't work. Sooner folks figure that out, sooner things get better.

These days depression is a concern, I guess it can be even harder for people who was dealing with depression even before the pandemic. I hope you can get better, Prowler.
Luckily the situation is a bit better here in Italy and I'm able to see a couple of friends during the weekends, even if at 6:00 pm every bar must close and at 10 pm there's the curfew. This means A LOT to me.

Yes Portugal has been going through a rough period lately like Italy did last year and the UK a few months ago.

There was a day recently where 16k new cases had been diagnosed. In a country with slightly over 10 million people only that's a HUGE number.

Most people do smell (and taste) what they eat and drink. I simply don't know what you're doing, and I don't wanna know either.
