Got Vaccinated in Jan with Pfizer, now got Covid.

And the news has the inside scoop... we only hear what Trump told us ...

'Reliable sources' told the news what he really meant and what was said when we weren't listening.

Thank gawd for the news - or we would be totally clueless!

I'd be afraid of jinxing it by talking about it...

Would suck to die young after living invincible.

Death and I have an agreement; he's got killer instinct negotiating skills, but much to his chagrin, I've got this painting in the attic he doesn't know about, see and... well, say no more, say no more.

Ok, Dorian.

And you know it. Is it odd that was one of my favorite novellas as a kid and Saturday afternoon fright flick?

Right up there with Mr. Sardonicus, Whatever Happened to Baby Jane, and Sunset Blvd.

Got diagnosed with Covid this sunday. Started with chills in the early am, felt like a hangover getting ready for work- checked my temp and it was 99.8 which is high for me. I reported my symptoms to work and went to go get the test- figured what the hell, free day off. Bam- positive antigen test, next day positive pcr test. Sunday and Monday just had a mild fever with a headache, easily controlled by dayquil, fever never got much above 100. By Tue fever was gone, taste buds were kinda dull and cant smell anything. Today woke up with pretty knarly sinus pressure and on/off sweats, nothing else. I do qet tired easily trying to accomplish any task involving physical effort- but no shortness of breath at all. Worst part is all 3 of my kids have it, luckily they are all pretty much fine. Wife got Moderna in March, shes just had a bad headache for 2 days- test results should be in soon. So on one hand, still got covid despite the vaccine. On the other hand, my symptoms were pretty mild compared to most Ive run into, so maybe it provided some benefit.

People who don't believe in the vax would say "told you so, the vax don't work."

People who believe in the vax would say "told you so, your case was mild and passed quickly."

I would say, the PCR test can't tell the difference between flu and corona. You probably had the flu. Drink some Corona just to be sure.

Glad you and your family are OK. Stay healthy and don't watch the news.

Whats the difference between mild virus symptoms and flu/cold symptoms?

Nada.

I remember the moment when I realized this whole thing is a sham.

I got an email from my health insurance provider to watch out for the "covid symptoms." I read through the list and it's virtually identical to the stuff I get on a bad allergy day. You know the routine: headache, runny nose, sore throat, sometimes mild fever, muscle ache, maybe coughing...etc.

Yeah, it's indistinguishable from a bad allergy.

Covid vaccine doesn't give someone a force field against catching it. Just like people who get a flu vaccine and can still catch the flu.

The vaccine preps your body to fight off the bug if you catch it, which is what happened.

Joe Xiden asserts otherwise.

How are you and yours doing? Are you recovering well, I hope?

I tried the "Home HCQ" recipe, I don't know if it contains quinine as claimed, but it sure felt good. I had a slight cold, seemed to knock the cold out.

You simmer/boil grapefruit peels for 2-3 hours with water, keep covered. Drink the juice. Doesn't take much. Take zinc and vitamin C.

I used a crock pot so it wouldn't burn. I also squoze the peels because they hold a lot of juice.

Sounds like a lot of work. I stick with gin & tonic

My brother is also sick. He was vaccinated earlier because he works in the medical field. Found out Monday and today he says he has not energy to get out of bed.

Pfizer only last 6 months, and I would guess it's similar for all the vaccines .. %50 of people got the jab 6 months or more ago .. Means a lot of people think they are good and they are not.

The vax isn't a guarantee against Covid. It's 99% positive you won't go to hosp[ital and get on ventilator. And probably won't die. We get flu shots every year why, to lessen chance of getting it and if do the symptoms are less. I'm happy with my vax and I'd get the booster if it comes out. My two cents....

so how's it different from no vax?

[Medic451]

Doing better, family is fine. Kids are fine, wife and I still get headaches and a “head fog” feeling for lack of a better term. I guess thats a normal recovery symptom that can last for a month or so. I also still get random hot flashes where I start sweating alot, especially when I go outside. Yeah its hot out, but its like your body has issues thermo-regulating for a while after covid.
The vaccine timing explains why my wife had an easier go of it- her last Moderna dose was in april so she likely had more protective antibodies than I did.

And COVID minor symptom/survival rate - no hospital needed - without the vaccination, is more than 99%, so these vaccines are equating to be little better than a placebo. What's different?

I do NOT get the Flu vaccines (at all) and haven't had a cold since 1986. 6 years at my current office and have never called in a "sick day" - yet every year, all around me, people are sniffing and snotting, calling out sick with the flu.

As said before, I won't knock anyone for getting these pseudo-vaccines, but they weren't billed as only meant to 'minimize' symptoms, and the more we learn about these pseudo-vaccines, the better I feel for having not gotten falsely vaccinated.

I WANT there to be an effective and safe vaccine, without known long-term consequences, but the first point is not proving true, and word on the latter is still evolving and unknown.

By the way: I've read two articles today on highly regarded Leftist news-sites that are recommending that you do NOT get any future booster shots.

That right there tells me something is not all as great, effective, and safet as they said it was.
