COVID-19 vaccines: medical concerns and recommendations

[Tabasco]

The one time I know I had it, the symptoms were so mild I wouldn't have known if not for my daughter getting tested before going back to work (she had the sniffles and works with a covid-phobe, so she tested just to be able to tell her to STFU). When my daughter tested positive, we all got tested and popped positive. Our symptoms were so mild that if not for 2 years of Covid, we would have barely noticed anything (mild stuffiness and a scratchy throat, no fever).

My experience exactly. Last May I came down with the weirdest cold I've ever had. I get sick maybe once every three years. Starts with a sore throat, moves into my sinuses then lungs. Stuffed up to the point of not being able to breathe through my nose, then bad cough for a few days. This was different. Sore throat, a bit stuffy nose, no fever or cough afterwards. Got one of those take home tests which was negative, but from what I understand they are not very effective with the later variants. Lots of false negatives. It would be hard to believe I have not been exposed to it as I work with the public (retail) frequently. Moderna vax plus booster.

Apparently, COVID wasn't deadly enough already. Boston University is experimenting with a super COVID.

Boston University has now proven that we have learned nothing.

The researchers at BU didn’t design a more lethal strain in humans. They designed a less lethal strain in humans and then tested it in a murine model that was engineered to be especially susceptible to this strain.

This is fairly routine and I used strains of bacteria that are especially lethal to mice for my K08 project.

I will admit that bullshit sounds much better in British than American.

It turns out that some important details were left out of the original story . . .

Another study showing that supplementing with Vitamin D lowers COVID 19 risks.

I had a routine cleaning at the dentist on Tuesday afternoon. Yesterday afternoon I started feeling a bit wonky after my workout...eventually getting some chills, a bit of a cough but no big deal.

Today was a bit worse, but no fever so this evening I just decided to take one of the tests that I received in the mail from Uncle Sam. Positive. Well I'll be dipped.

I knew I shouldn't have gone for that cleaning on Tuesday. Over all I don't feel too bad...like a low grade cold.

So far, I'm just taking some acetaminophen and keeping hydrated.

Guess I won't be working out this week.

Pfizer bivalent recipient here, mild fatigue and arm soreness was experienced. Haven't stroked out.

Feel better soon. Staying hydrated and moving helped me. No workouts but making sure I got up and walked around every hour.

Sorry to read this Blues.
Hopefully it stays low-grade.

Might be a good idea to call the dentist and thank them, er, let them know.

Sorry to hear your down with it. I have a dentist appointment this Tuesday and your misfortune doesn't make it any more appealing. I had a cleaning while stationed in Japan by a local national who either wanted payback for the war or thought Marathon Man was a training film.😁 I've treated the dentist's office like enemy territory since. Get well soon!

I thought about it...but didn't want them to think I was blaming them. It is the most logical place though, since we hadn't been to the supermarket in a couple of weeks and that's where most of our interactions with the public take place.

Anyway, it is what it is. Thanks, B, for the concern.
