Good deal, and I hope you don't get knocked down too hard.
I have an appt on Thursday. Once the Director found out we're dealing with the public, driving their junk, and otherwise mingling with the great unwashed, he gave us a link to set an appointment. Plus, age and some of that damn COPD, sort of put me in there.
I almost think I may have had it, in hindsight. I had a slight cold, but no other symptom. No fever, no loss of senses, none of that, other than a sore back. The sore back I attributed to weights, and didn't think twice. Lately though, my breathing is a little worse for wear, and I don't like that. I wouldn't think twice other than the fact that it came on almost overnight, so who knows.

Nossir. As far as I know, I hadn't been exposed. I've been very cautious, and aware of my surroundings and interlopers coming into my space. I'm likely just suffering a bit of hypochondria, and just starting to feel my age. Someday, I may start acting my age, but that's long into the future.

Just got invited to do 100+ miles tomorrow. Just 2 other guys but a lot of climbing. I declined because I've become a wuss. Also got invited to a mtb ride in a fun area. I was planning to do a 40 mile ride with 4K feet with a small group. It's good to have choices but it sucks that I am so bad at decisions.
