During the COVID-19 pandemic, a sign on Berthoud Pass reminds travelers to wear a face mask, Thursday morning, Oct. 22, 2020.
Aaron Weiss was 72 hours away from getting his first dose of the coronavirus vaccine when it hit.
He started feeling tired. That soon turned into “textbook COVID,” complete with a hacking cough, extreme exhaustion and what Weiss called the “worst flu you ever had.”
“Just absolutely brutal,” Weiss said. “Aches. Night sweats. Just everything hurt for about a week there.”
He and his family had been super careful for a full year of the pandemic, working from home and avoiding close contact with others outside their family bubble. But that still wasn’t enough for the 43-year-old Littleton resident to avoid two trips to the ER and then a 5-day stay in the hospital.
