You can hear the voice recording for the diary.
朝から熱があり、近くのクリニックへ。診断結果はなんとコロナ感染だった。
Since I woke up with a fever this morning, I visited the clinic near my apartment. To my surprise, the doctor informed me that I had contracted COVID-19.
もう今年は、食中毒に始まり、今回のコロナで踏んだり蹴ったり。唯一の救いは、そこまで仕事が忙しいわけではないので、ゆっくり休めるところ。
This year has been full of mishaps for me, starting with food poisoning earlier, and now COVID-19. It seems like one unfortunate incident after another. However, the silver lining in this situation is that I will have the opportunity to get some much-needed rest as I’m not too busy at the moment.
すでに隔離は不要になっているとはいえ、家族への感染が心配なので、近くのビジネスホテルを1週間予約。とりあえず安いところでと思って予約したのが失敗だった。
Although quarantine isn’t mandatory, I’ve chosen to stay at a hotel near my house for a week to protect my family. Opting for a cheaper hotel to save money seemed like a good idea initially, but I realized it was a mistake as soon as I checked in.
ホテルにチェックインしてみると、部屋にはホントに何もない。B&Bのようなビジネスホテルである。せっかくなら、新しくできたサウナがあるビジネスホテルにすればよかったと後悔。
The hotel room was quite basic, with only a small table and bed, resembling more of a bed and breakfast setup. I regret not choosing a newly built hotel with better amenities like a sauna.
こんな時でないと地元のホテルに泊まることもないし、体験する意味も込めて多少高くとも泊まってみればよかった。少し残念。
Rarely do I have the chance to stay at a hotel in my hometown, and today’s circumstances are the only reason for it. In hindsight, I should have opted for a higher-grade hotel based on my past experiences. I’m disappointed with my decision in this regard.
To be continued.
