So my brother who moved to England at the start of the pandemic is still on his kick about virons and prions and whatever else being injected into people when they get the COVID vaccine. Ugh.
He called our 87 year old dad who believes in science and normal vaccination -- not like the person I just read about here who got 7 flu vaccines this year -- See Walabio's Aug 19 post. My dad had enough of what my brother was spouting off about his antivax stance and his scientist "friend" in Japan with all his research. My dad told my brother, "Call me at a different time. I'm busy watching the DNC." My bro hung up in a huff because waaah waaah waaah, daddy didn't want to hear his antivax "revelations".
It seems like we have 3 flavors of people: antivaxxing conspiracy theorists, normal people who just get vaxxed with the recommendations, and then the 17,000 vaxxing, triple masking, body suit live-in-a-bubble people. Where TF did common sense go?!?!
I got COVID for the 1st time May 2023 on a 10 hour flight from Maui. It was mildish but I stayed off work a week and a half. My main symptom was bad fatigue -- no cough or taste alteration. I had flus much worse. Also, the West Nile I had was worse.
Fun seeing everyone again in this virtual world. We had some great stories and posts.
I’m waiting with bated breath for the next Covid vaccine shot. This will be my 7th shot. I had one bout of Covid in 2021 and it was mild with no lingering side effects. So far I have taken 5 Moderna and 1 Pfizer shots. I hope to get another Moderna this Fall.
Rona for realsies😂😂😂😂
I got 7 vaccinations against flu and 4 vaccinations agains tthe 'Rona this year:
Work vaccinates against Influenza as does my clinic where I get my healthcare. I got vaccinated against Flu at both work and the clinic in September. That is 2 for the flu.
October comes around and the Clinic has 'Rona-Shots. When I arrived, they said that because of a snafu, the 'Rona-Shot was not available yet, but gave to me another vaccination against Influenza and refered me to a CVS. That is 3 against flu.
At the CVS, I got another Flu-Shot and a 'Rona-Shot. That is 4 Flu-Shots and 1 'Rona-Shot.
In November, the Clinic phoned me and stated that it had vaccines against the 'Rona for realsies. I got 2 more shots, 1 against flu and the other against 'Rona. That is 5 Flu-Shots and 2-'Rona-Shots.
In December, I had mine annual appoint-ment at the clinic. During the physical, I got another 2 vaccinations, making 6 Flu-Shots and 3 'Rona-Shot.
Come January, and work changed us to a new Health-Plan; so now, I have to change physicians. I had to schedule my 1st annual appointment in January. During my physical, I got 2 more vaccinations, 1 against flu and 1 against rona for 7 against flu and 4 against 'Rona.
¡I and Flu/'Rona-Proof!
Good to see you Kath! Covid hit my workplace about a month and a half ago including me, very mild symptoms for about 3-4 days with no complications. Good thing I'm vaccinated. Had a summer vacation to national parks in Utah. Fun times.
This forum was a good spot in a bad time. COVID still rears its ugly head, and I still mask on planes. We may need a place for solidarity in the future; hard to imagine a clean outcome to the US election. If he wins, we’re screwed, if he loses, there’s sure to be trouble. Maybe we can morph into sorrytrumper.com?
I miss the site too. Good times. Good snark. On Threads these days. Harris/Walz came to town a couple weeks ago-it was a blowout. I had to work but all my friends went.... Feeling optimistic!
Hey how are you? I miss this group
