Oh and context for my āIām getting this foshoā:
Friend who has Covid and I sat together on this couch for several hours, talking with nice projected voices to the other 3 friends across from us. Tot also sat with me and her on there for an additional 30 min probably.
(Ignore the tot mess around it haha, play zone and I didnāt pick up before the picture)

FWIW, I didnāt get COVID when Wizard had it, despite living in the same 670 sq ft apartment and sleeping in the same bed.
(Of course I instead got it from going to a restaurant? So that was weird and fun.)

Yeah but Iām worried about all three of us, because I mean obviously having Covid isnāt fun, but also it increases the care burden for me no matter who is sick. So the odds of all three of us not getting it arenāt great. Even if one or two of us are unscathed.

Okay so one other book club member got it for sure, sheād never had it yet though. Sheās pretty mild but definitely has symptoms and got a positive home test already. The rest of us are still feeling okay and all have previous infections under our belts 
So far negative for me.
ETA oh and luckily one members infection was a month ago, so she should be totally in the clear. The second sick one is a professor 
talk about bad timing! Her classes are all in person this year, too.

Also, Iām busy being annoyed by the one friend who basically told me Iām overreacting by treating it as a close contact because she didnāt have symptoms yet. And Iām like she had symptoms literally literally two hours later, I donāt care if the Oregon health authority doesnāt count that as a close contact, thatās simply not how biology works. Iām not here for a stamp card, I care about my odds of infecting the other neighborhood children and my ill mother. 
and this friend works in a hospital no less.

Thanks so much for this heads up.
Got myself an appointment for 2 weeks before my brotherās wedding. Hope itās going to work!!
EDIT: @Bracken_Joy At least for my location, I had to get through a few screens and enter the date of my last booster before it said it would be the updated Moderna booster. But once I did it was explicit.
