I went to the first professional event/conference in over 2 years. It was a super spreader event. So now I'm in quarantine at my own house :(

I was one of maybe 100 people out of 20k wearing a mask. The organizers just pretended COVID didn't exist.. opened with a ribbon cutting where they all hugged each other. There was ONE hand sanitizer station for the entire exhibit hall.

While the show is going on, the county goes to HIGH risk for COVID, the show sends a passive email saying "hey, maybe wear a mask or something".

Long story short, not sure why I thought a show in Vegas would be a good idea. I went for two days then hit the road to LA to get out of there for the weekend.

I tested negative before my flight, been testing negative, and had a PCR test today that is in the right time window for being exposed last Thursday.

And the show wasn't even very good... pointless exposure.

best news i heard was a company that as their employees tested positive, they just put them on a plane and sent them home. -- nm - colin Jun 15, 11:05 2
