If you’ve chosen not to take a Covid vaccine for whatever reason(s), it may be wise to reassess occasionally.

My wife and I both got and survived covid at thanksgiving.

We used Ivermectin ( aka horse dewormer ) and hydroxychloroquine. While my wife is very healthy and was great in a week, my pre-existing condition is not too good. I have been six months waiting for a heart valve surgery. The 10 years of heart disease has made my asthma pretty severe. Not exactly what you would call a picture of health. Dr says keeping my weight down and disciplined exercise has been given me better odds.

After covid I did need a couple weeks of part time oxygen therapy with a rented oxygen concentrator to get me back to 96% spO2.

Funeral today for a healthy 59 year old friend that was fully "vaxed", got covid Dec 1st, went to the Hospital and was put on a ventilator. Funeral next Tuesday for 32 year old fully "vaxed" man from church who went to the hospital about a week later, and was put on a vent. Yet 3 newscasts a day have some hospital spokesman saying the unvaxed are clogging up the hospitals and they are dying. They pretty much infer that no "vaxed" people are dying.

Everything about this sickness has been questionable ever since fauci stole our money to have it developed. Things will be questionable until the little madman and his population control computer sales buddy are behind bars.

I am so tired of the lies and propaganda.

My vaccinated brother and his wife have it currently as does a good friend and his vaccinated wife. My best friend has it but has not been vaccinated. Fever, achy, lethargic and headache. Same symptoms and severity reported from all of them.

My wife has decided to get vaxed after a long delay. I am glad yet I am concerned. She's one of those "somewhat" high risk patients. I am praying no side effects.

My wife just got her booster. No issues except for complaint of pain in her arm whenever I poke it.

 

[cbhausen]

Yep, how’bout them vaccines?

 

[jsharmon7]

Yep, how’bout them vaccines?

I read an interview with a researcher in the UK. His opinion was that it’s possible omicron is more transmissible in the vaccinated because it has developed an advantage over delta. So it’s not necessarily more transmissible overall, but it’s developed an ability to evade immunity protection as an revolutionary advantage over delta. If that’s true, there are a lot of vaccinated people running around at these events with a false sense of security. Numbers continue to back up the idea that it keeps people out of severe trouble at least.

Omicron doesn't care much if you're vaccinated. It will penetrate that immunity.

Does seem to cause less severe illness overall though, esp if you have some level of immunity.

The people clogging up the ER are young healthy people with minor symtptoms.

 

[tbhausen]

I figure we’re all gonna get it at least once, so reducing severity of illness/length of hospitalization is the metric that matters most to me.

Why are young healthy people with minor symptoms even in the ER?

 

[snapping turtle]

I have gotten to the point that I Don’t care about Covid. I got my one shot Johnny which I hear is better at long term tCell protection. I work big public events. Indoor events. Lots of screaming and drunks.

I figure I either have tigers blood, good luck (buying powerball tonight), or have already had it already and did not know it. 56-62 k people in a large building in close contact most unmasked is a higher precent of exposure than most.

I have my blood oximeter, thermometer, a nice bottle of shine and a couple good cigars. Figure that is about as good as it gets when it comes around.

I do vitamin d3 and a multi most days. Bring it on.

Why are young healthy people with minor symptoms even in the ER?

CNN, MCNBC, ABC, NBC, NPR, etc.

 

[mom45]

CNN, MCNBC, ABC, NBC, NPR, etc.

Media has them convinced they are going to die.

Idiots. Clogging up the ER when you have no business being there has a much greater detrimental impact on others health than not wearing a mask or getting vaxxed.

 

[Leo]

I did see a report where the researcher felt that getting Omicron was a blessing in disguise. The research looks like Omicron is very effective in getting around our natural immune system and once in, it actually fortifies the bodies natural immune system to resist all forms of covid for the long term.

I hope that is true, and not just another bunch looking for grant money.

That’s just how a virus works. Weaker but more transmissible as time goes on, and trying to vaccinate during a pandemic/initial outgbreak exacerbates that behavior.
Any reasonable media would have already explained this to the population.
But we don’t have that, we have people telling us to believe the science when it’s the exact opposite of what they’re saying, and to quote true historical science gets you labeled as a conspiracy theorist.
We living in the upside down, welcome to Hawkins.

$1 million question. Co-pays are zero with Medicaid.

Yep. Exactly.

Imagine we reported cases of the common cold. People would freak the F out

Just out of curiosity, what are your thoughts on testing people for Covid with no symptoms?

I feel like it's just keeping the numbers inflated.

"Idiots" is exactly the word that comes to mind when I keep seeing news stories about the shortages of home tests. And I hear that places are limiting (at the high end) purchases to 6 per customer. WTF?? Who would buy 6 tests at a time??

I guess that's a rhetorical question. I think we all know who would do that.
