So coronavirus is definitely going to kill a few of us.

A majority of people including many elderly would have nothing to worry about if they took basic care of themselves.

Build and supply your body like it is an arsenal against infection.

If you keep feeding a high powered car with shitty gas, it will fail.

If you keep filling your body with non nutrition high fat high calorie trash, it will fail.

Our bodies are made of 80% water. Water that moves is healthy. Sedentary water rots.

It is simple, move and eat well and thrive.

Don’t, wither and die, weak and scared.

So... here's something a little alarming.

My parents got the vaccine in mid-January, then got their second shot in mid-February. They waited the required time for it to be fully effective, then took a trip to Jamaica. They had been itching to travel all of this time, but they were obviously not going to take any chances at this age, but felt safe after being fully vaccinated. I was happy for them, and they enjoyed the trip.

They came to visit me the day after they got back from Jamaica. This was on Saturday. I considered asking them to wait a week or so before seeing me, because of their high level of exposure on the trip, but I decided that was being overly paranoid. After all, studies out of Israel showed that you're not very likely to transmit COVID after being fully vaccinated. Also, they were required to take a COVID test the day before leaving Jamaica, and that came back negative.

Yesterday (3 days after they visited), my girlfriend indicated that she had a sore throat and "felt sick". At the time, I felt fine. She has been practicing avoidance regarding COVID as much as I have.

Last night, I also got a sore throat, and started to feel fatigue. Late at night, the sore throat worsened, and I also got some chest-area soreness, though I didn't have any problem breathing.

I had no fever, and my heart rate was normal (around 60, which is my typical heart rate). My oxygen level was also normal.

I slept a long time (about 10.5 hours), though part of this was because I only slept 4 hours the day before. I woke up with an improvement to the sore throat, but the chest soreness was worse, and I had more aches and pains in my body. I also have moderate fatigue. Still no fever, and heart/oxygen rates are normal.

Girlfriend also has the weird chest soreness, and her sore throat is slightly improved.

It is possible this is environmental (carbon monoxide, or something like that), and also possible we both caught a cold through groceries I brought home (since colds CAN easily transmit on surfaces, unlike COVID).

I will say that so far this is more cold-like than COVID-like, though both of us have this weird chest pain, which I don't usually get from colds. My parents are not sick and don't have a cold, and colds don't tend to transmit from those who are asymptomatic.

This will be so frustrating if we caught COVID from my parents this way, after being so careful for a year.

Man you run bad, I hope you guys are good, glad to see your parents getting to travel

[JACKDANIELS]

sounds like you may have covid todge but you should go take a test to be sure rather than driving yourself crazy worrying if you do or not

Hopefully you fade that permanent lung damage that you like to prod me about.

Tough break!

Imagine the diseases that Druff will pick up if he attends the WSOP 2021 at the Rio in Las Vegas this year.

80% of guys do not wash their hands after going to the bathroom.

I'm sure you will be safe playing poker with a mask for 12 hours a day.

"Most everyone I know that’s gotten the jab doesn't know too much about it, trusting what the scientists on Pharma-funded MSM tell them.



Most everyone I know that isn’t getting the jab has done extensive research on it, listening to the scientists neglected by Pharma’s MSM.



Are y’all finding this as well in your circles? So many people that have gotten it don’t realize:



1) it’s not a traditional vaccine, no viral component in it. It’s makers liken it to a “software update” for our “operating system”



2) it does not stop transmission, you can still get it and spread it - CDC, Fauci, WHO



3) it won’t protect against mutated strains



4) it’s not FDA approved, only temporary use authorized



5) it’s a brand new technology never before used or approved for human use. It’s still not approved but is being used despite having years left in its clinical trials.



6) most of the covid deaths in highly vaccinated populations are from mutated strains not addressed by the current jab du jour



7) it doesn’t create sterilizing immunity, only lessens severity of symptoms



8) the clinical trials for Pfizer and Moderna (that don’t complete for another 1-2 years) have unblinded their studies by vaccinating the group that received the placebo. Meaning, there is no true control group anymore and we won’t have clinical data on long term effects



9) Epstein didn’t kill himself



10) the manufacturers are not held liable for any injuries or deaths caused by their experimental gene therapy.



11) over 31,000 adverse events and 1500 deaths related to the vaccine have been reported in the HHS’ Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System (VAERS) as of today.



12) there is a real risk of developing antibody-dependent enhancement (ADE) that will make the vaccinated more susceptible to severe illness when they encounter the wild virus. This has been demonstrated in previous failed attempts at developing a vaccine for SARS and is a reason why a Coronavirus vaccine has never been approved in the past.



13) immune systems end pandemics"

Druff how is COVID going?

Chest tightness should go away in a few days.

[Dan Druff]

I took a test today.

Supposedly results will be in tomorrow.

[BCR]

One shot down.


Druff I hope you didn’t get it. Good luck.

[Dan Druff]

Looks like I didn't get it.

COVID test yesterday -- which I got through the county -- had a surprising 11-hour turnaround time, and I knew by 5:30am today that it was negative.

Symptoms have lessened today, to where radio is a possibility for tomorrow. Cough and chest pain still there, but better than yesterday.

Looks like it was most likely a cold.

There are false negatives on COVID tests, so I'm not 100% certain it wasn't COVID, but given its lack of increasing symptoms over 3+ days, it's very unlikely.

[Dan Druff]

One question I have is why my parents didn't get the cold, while my girlfriend did. It's possible it came in a way they weren't exposed, such as through groceries we brought in. But if it was from the food we ate that night (takeout), or if my parents brought the cold into the house, why aren't they feeling it?

I have one theory.

20% of all cold viruses are coronaviruses. However, it's the most common type of cold in December through March, and then the rhinovirus takes over as the most common after that.

If this was a coronavirus cold, is it possible that my parents' vaccine also protects against the common cold coronavirus? It's not hard to imagine. There was some belief last year that coronavirus cold antibodies help protect against COVID-19, so it's not hard to believe the reverse might be true.

It will be interesting to see if the mRNA COVID vaccine is eventually shown to provide protection against certain colds, as well.

[Dan Druff]

Also here's an article from January, which talks about a vaccine being developed to protect against all coronaviruses -- including colds:

https://www.the-scientist.com/news-o...19-cases-68146

This vaccine isn't ready yet, but as I said, it wouldn't be surprising if the existing mRNA vaccines also provide some protection against coronavirus colds, which are the most common type of cold at this time of year.

[mickeycrimm]

I got the 2nd shot yesterday. Absolutely no side effects on either shot. I can hit the road again. Just have to coordinate it with checkups and prescription pickups.

[FRANKRIZZO]

100 million have gotten the shot so far

Over the past year libtards have bragged up how well the Europeans have handled the pandemic compared to the United States, especially when Trump was president. But look what's going on now, Covid is still spreading there and they are still having massive shutdowns. Why? Not hard to figure out. The idiots wouldn't fork out enough money to get a bigger supply of the vaccine.

The US is vaccinating our citizens twice as fast as the European Union. It wasn't long ago libtards were poo-pooing Trump's Operation Warp Speed. Trump put out bigtime cash to light a fire under big pharma to get a vaccine out quickly and also plentifully.

40% of Americans have now had a least one vaccine shot. Twice as many as in the European Union. Trump deserves all the credit. Yes, I know libtards will never give Trump credit for anything. But the real knuckleheads are the never-Trump RINO's that keep insisting Trump is a bad guy. Those idiots should be horsewhipped.

Thank God. Would have been a horrible beat to sit home all year and catch it that way. I suspect your theory about your parents is probably right. Makes logical sense. Impossible to know until data emerges in coming years.

COVID round 2 for me??

Started having minor symptoms on Thursday. Slowly been getting worse. Today temp is at 100.3. Will be going to urgent care to have my brain poked in the AM. Symptoms are almost same as a year ago. FML.
