The only folks that I personally know who have died from COVID-19 have been fully vaccinated. They both had underlying health conditions but somehow survived this BS for over a year before getting vaccinated. Then within 6 weeks of receiving their second shot they both died from COVID-19 compactions.

my feeling is, unvaxxed it could have hurt you permanently. Still, it goes to show how imperfect the vax can be, but still be much better than nothing at all. I agree. It would likely be much worse if you were unvaccinated. I have a friend who was a loud mouth anti-vaxxer until he contracted covid and nearly died. Now there isn't a person alive who supports the vaccine more than him. Same as my cousins husband. Hard core anti-everything denier. If she could but more than 3-4 words together she might say the same. I just saw a friend that had covid, he thinks he got it in Nashville. He was Moderna vaxed, He said for him it was 2 days in bed with fever and sore throat, 2 more days fatigued and ended like a light switch. He turns 80 this month. Somehow he didn't die from his vax like so many here believe.

You are 300% more likely to catch Covid if you've had a vax within the past 2 weeks. Where are you getting this information?

Can you post differentials of your Lymphocyte levels before and after exposure? I left calculus, what, 35+ years ago?

CP glad you are getting better! Funny how everyone has a story, for or against the vaccination. True Grit sad to hear your vaccinated friends passed. The story for most of the country is just the opposite of what TG has experienced! Hopefully all will be well and we can enjoy the, sarcasm, laudation and just plain entertainment here on the fire! After the covid has passed, we can find other things to challenge each other!! Keep a deep seat and tight rein.

"I completed the first two shot Pfizer series in early March and had the Booster 9 days ago."
Wait a minute you're fully vaccinated and you still got the covid. How is that possible?

I had both Moderna shots last one May 28. In July we had an outbreak at work. I tested positive but never had any symptoms. Now I am short of breath when I walk up the stairs from the bottom deck at work. It takes me about 10 minutes to catch my breath after 100 stairs. Before I tested positive it took about 30 seconds to catch my breath.

CP, I hope you have a full and quick recovery. Like you, I am 75 and have underlying health issues, including asthma. Fortunately, I haven't had an attack in many years. I got the Moderna vaccine.

No vax, been around two friends that had it, didn't get sick. I haven't had the flu or a cold since I got the flu real bad in 89.

I waited until recently to get the jab, and after talking to my doctor (who I've known and trusted for 25 years) , and seeing the effects of the bug on my family and friends, I made up my mind. My doctor said the vaccine isn't like what we imagine as a vaccine. It is really a pre-treatment to keep the effects of the bug at a minimum. In his practice, the patients that did not have the vaccine, did much worse with the Covid than the patients that had the vaccine. An acquaintance of mine died from it very fast, and his kids blamed themselves for introducing it into the house. This was one thing that changed my mind, also.

I'm glad that you're improving, but in spite of the positive tests, which are at best 50% right, it really doesn't sound like C-19......................sounds more like a basic fall cold / sinus infection going into your chest.
But then, again, who knows....................tests with 50% or more, false positives are worse than useless, they are dangerous.

A long time friend and his wife both got Covid in August. He was vaccinated, but she was not. Both late 50’s, both had other health issues. He had a rough time with it but rode it out at home. He called me while he was sick and his wife had been in the hospital for 8 days. He said to me over the phone “if she makes it through this, maybe she won’t be against the vaccine anymore.” She died after a full month in the hospital.
