Last Friday I purchased cymbals from a private drum dealer in a northern suburb of the Twin Cities; that I’ve been supporting for years. I was double masked with gloves and ready to go. After I entered the studio/garage in his home, and was there for less than 10 minutes, he said BTW my family and I have had COVID so you don’t have to worry. I wanted to freak out and start screaming at him; but instead I purchased the cymbals and got the heck out of there immediately. As soon as I got back home I addressed his slack attitude about COVID via texting. However he didn’t realize that his household may be still contagious because they did not re test to confirm a Negative result! He told me he and the family stopped having symptoms 3 weeks ago and they were in quarantine for 2 weeks. After doing some research I realized that I may have become infected. So as a result I am in quarantine for at least a week and getting tested.

So I want this to be a WARNING TO EVERYONE out there, please be very careful and if you do come in contact with someone with COVID; quarantine and get tested. That is how to monitor the situation that we all need to desperately adhere to.
