      Me too. My whole house is fully vax and boosted and we all got it. The current variant is highly contagious and evades prior infection and vaccination. But so far none of us are seriously sick.

    Just tested positive on the home test. Only got the first two shots and the second was a doozy for me. Extremely week for a couple days and almost passed out a few hours after the second shot after light exercise.
    Currently have more stable temperature after alternating shivering and running a fever. Weakness has moderated some and improved. Diarrhea now if I eat much. Feel stuffed or lose appetite if I eat more than half what I usually do.
    Doc will be back in after the weekend tomorrow so I need to touch base with Dr.

      ya you do need covid shot because of your weak immune system. If you are sick from the vaccine watch out th virus may make you very sick or death.

    I tested positive 7days ago, started symptoms 8 days ago. Today I feel much better but still runny nose. My manager at work said I cant come back because I still have a runny nose, even
    wearing a mask. I am out of work without pay. I find this a bit much that she doesnt know the protocols and its costing me money. I have had 4 vaccines prior and am up to date on them.

    I have not had any shots and tested positive yestarday my first symptoms was a high fever and kinda weak I got medications for it so it don't progress to being in the hospital amd dying so I strongly encourage you to get vaccinated if you haven gotten the shots and booster shots.

    • @johntube2525
      @johntube2525 10 місяців тому

      Yes, about a year ago, I was sick and I tested with the self-test and I tested negative.
      But, Yesterday, I started feeling sick and it was really bad, worse than a year ago. I had jackets on, as well as blankets wrapped around me. I could not get warm. Lots of drainage, hacking cough due to the drainage. Today, I did 2 of the self-test and both were positive. So yes, sometimes you just have a cold and it is a good idea to test. If positive, isolate so not passing this really bad illness on to others. Even with the cold, we really do not want to pass it on to others. I am taking Tylenol every 6 hours and feeling a little better, thanks to Tylenol. I have been fully vaccinated so hopefully I will not be hospitalized.

      You understand covid causes like 100x the risk of blood clots to a vaccine. You must get all your research from ccp tiktok.
