Hello everyone! It's been a few days since I've been on the forum. The last time I was here I was letting everyone know how great it was on the Camino! We were in Astorga 6 days ago. It was the best day of our very short Camino. It was the 3rd day in a row I let everyone know there was no sign of Covid19 on the trail. Less than 12 hours after I made that post I had a ticket home, well the first ticket anyway.
I just want to apologize to anyone who I might have misled by my ignorance and naivety of what we were/are dealing with. I have not been tested, but the CDC doctor in SFO and 2 ER doctors ordering me not to go into the hospital, say I don't need to be tested. They know I have covid19. I'm in excellent health and will be fine. I do not need to take a hospital bed from someone who really needs it. As a matter of fact 2 out of the 3 of us walking together got the virus. My companion is in excellent health also and we're both almost over there worst of it.
I'll forever have the guilt of transmitting this from place to place. We had disinfecting wipes and wiped everything before and after. We had plenty of hand sanitizer and we're very generous with it! But, there's no possible way we were 100% sterile the whole time.
That being said I cannot wait to get back to the Camino ASAP! It will forever be different for us who were on the trail during the pandemic, though. There will always be a bit of anxiety now while walking. Yet, I know I'll be safe.
Had to get this off my chest and I'm sorry! Buen Camino!
