    Got vax in March cuz I'm a type II.
    Got congestion and cough Wednesday. This happens about twice a year. I go to the clinic and get a rosephen shot and ZPak.
    Got to the clinic Friday at 9:30. Said i had to swab first. At 10:30 I was notified POSITIVE on the quick test.
    I was handed my paperwork and told to head straight to Monroe's St. Francis Medical Center 10 minutes away for the fusion. No if, ands or buts.
    By noon I arrived at the Infusion center and was out by 2:20 pm and headed home for my 10-day quarantine.
    Since Friday I've had mild fever (if any), some congestion, some mild cough. Today add diarrhea to the list. No fatigue. nothing else.

    The Delta Variant, however, is the real deal. It likes everyone. All ages.

    My official statement: The vaccine helped lessen COVID-19's effects drastically, quickly.

    Should everyone consider the vaccine? It's helping me.

    That's all.
    Glad you aren't feeling worse. Yes, it's the real deal.

    But there's really no way to tell if the vaccine has had a hand in your feeling better quickly, or if it actually lessened your COVID effects. It could have just been your own immune system doing all that, and there is no real way of knowing at this point. Now statistically, I do agree that getting the shot makes sense, because it appears the data shows lower percentages of those that are vaxxed are getting really sick....especially older folks. This is why I got vaccinated.

    I was around my wife when she had COVID before I was vaxxed and went to a number of "super spreader" events (like the Daytona 500, some local concerts and craft shows) without being impacted. I wouldn't say I didn't catch it because I was unvaccinated any more than I would say I haven't gotten it since then because I was vaccinated.

    That said, I hope you're right about why it's not hitting you worse. Hope you're back to normal soon.

    Re: Covid - 19

    Thanks.
    Yes, my immune system has been strong. Here’s why and it’s a very scientific reason:
    I grew up in Hot Springs, not far from Hot Springs Creek, which flowed through the heart of town. Until I was 18, most of downtown sewage was dumped into the creek, which emptied into Lake Hamilton, which is part of the Ouachita River.
    The EPA stopped all new construction in HS until the sewerage system was corrected for more than 10 years.
    so, there. The Chinese came up with something stronger than all the crap I grew up with!

    Shocking report of apparently official figures obtained in England through information requests.

    Over 30,000 deaths reported within three weeks of taking the experimental gene therapy over a 6-month period.

    BREAKING – 30,305 people died within 21 days of having a Covid-19 Vaccine in England during the first 6 months of 2021 according to ONS data – The Expose

    1. Calling it “gene therapy” makes you look ignorant AF. It isn’t.

    2. Some proper context is needed. There isn’t any casualty established for these deaths. But that is also not a statistically significant number of deaths. Tons of people die everyday in the UK and the vaccine rollout was relatively quick. For example,

    “Between 8 December 2020 and 11 June 2021, a total of 5,522 people died within 28 days of receiving a COVID-19 vaccine in Scotland (number of days between vaccine and death is 0-27, where 0 is the day of vaccination, all age groups). A breakdown of these deaths by day and vaccine type is available in the spreadsheet provided along with this report. Using the 5-year average monthly death rate (by age band and gender) from 2015 to 2019 for comparison, 8,718 deaths would have been expected among the vaccinated population within 28 days of receiving their COVID-19 vaccination. This means the observed number of deaths is lower than expected compared with mortality rates for the same time period in previous years (dose 1 observed/expected ratio:0.66, 95%CI= 0.64 to 0.69; dose 2 observed/expected ratio: 0.59, 95%CI=0.57 to 0.62).”

    If you look up the featured nurse (O’Malley) from the Phoenix Indian Medical Center, her social media includes anti-vaccine and conspiracy theory posts. Anti masker too. She is full tilt right wing loon.

    And of course there is nothing in the video that substantiates her claims.

    Norway has declared the China Virus is no different than the flu and is ending all related restrictions.

    They must be right! Norway is a Scandinavian country, ya know, "socialist democracy" and as such is never wrong about anything. So, if Norway has declared an end to the pandemic, the world should follow suit. At least one regular here has always sung the praises of the "enlightened" Scandinavians, and I expect to see him posting support for an end of all restrictions.

    Question……

    Unvaxxed can get and transmit the virus. Vaxxed can get and transmit the virus. Why are companies offering options of vax or weekly test instead of weekly test for all regardless of status?

    Because you are far more likely to get and transmit the virus if you are unvaxxed. The current rate of breakthrough infection is estimated to be 1 in every 5000 vaccinated people.

    Re: Covid - 19

    These are they types of folks that should never have gotten the vaccine in the first place. He is a healthy, sub-40 year old athlete that would benefit WAY more by contracting Covid and having access to the proper (and now rationed by the idiot in the Oval office) therapeutics when he gets mildly sick.

    This is the stupidity of letting a senile old man and his compromised side kick (Fauchi) dictate a one-size-fits all response to the virus.

    Next he will get a "breakthrough" infection where he will be told he needs 5 or 6 additional boosters of the same vaccine to save him going forward. More cowbell isn't going to fix anything.

    Edited to add.....if you think you want government in control of health care, look at our geriatric dictator and his rationing of life-saving medicine as what you can expect. Perhaps Trump should not have sent all those ventilators to the Yankee morons in New York that were confined to high-rise apartments where they were more likely to come into contact with others that were infected with Covid. Perhaps he should have kept the hospital ships free in the event the more intelligent parts of the nation needed them later. It's only "fair".

    If he reacted this bad to the vaccine, just imagine how much worse he reaction might have been to an actual infection.
