Kansas City-based team lease-operators Chanté and Chris Drew contracted COVID-19 in late March while on the road. For the next nine days, the trucking team made their way home, searching for decent-paying loads and places along the way to get tested. The pair made it back to Kansas City and got their tests. He tested positive, she did not – but healthcare professionals said she surely had the disease too. After a month at home in self-isolation with no income, the couple is back on the road. Doctors gave them a  clean bill of health, but many of the symptoms linger.
