😷Emergency Covid Funds😷

Hey guys, I hope you are all happy and healthy.
I currently got diagnosed with Covid-19, despite the fact that I am fully vaccinated, and will be put off work for around 10 days until I recover. Maybe more depending on how my body responds to the medication.
Thankfully, I have a very mild case and my symptoms are not that bad. My only complaint is that I cannot taste or smell anything and that I am constantly tired.
To make a long story short, I contacted my boss and told them directly that I couldn't come to work and If I could apply for a Covid Stipend. They informed me that it depended on whether or not I contracted Covid while I was at work?
For context, I work with a vulnerable part of the population and easily come into contact with 85-100 people a day. So I'm 100% sure that this is where I got it. Thanks to my state laws though, my employer legally does not have pay me unless it is proven that I contracted it from work.
So that is why I am currently writing this. I will need some form of income for the next week incase my stipend does not go through.
I am not going to be 'begging' for money. Instead, I just want to kindly remind you that I have commissions and a couple of YCH open that you can choose from in case you want to help me out!
To be blunt, I am not in a dire dire situation. I have funds set aside, but I would still like to remain on top of this incase something were to go south with my workplace. I also would love to create something for you guys while I am sick!
Thanks!
