Getting my flu and covid booster Tuesday,I,m a beliver,my wife (older and less healthy) has declined and is rolling the dice for now. Geoff My wife isn't getting any more either. The last one made her really ill. She suffers with fibromyalgia, and it triggered the worst attack she has ever had. Just sat in a chair for two days in unbearable pain all over her body. My other half had it and had done her in to being a fibromyalgia suffer too. |

All vaxed up and got the covid again anyway. Started feeling krappy Monday, didn't sleep a wink all night. For some reason my BP shot up and really kicked me in the arse. BP returned to normal Tuesday, feeling no better or worse 4 days in. Thanks to whoever unleashed this on humanity.

The vax doesn't always keep you from getting the Covid but it does mainly keep people out of the morgue.
Glad to hear you feel better. I will be wearing a mask for many years when I venture away from home.
We have no 'need to know' where it came from but my money is on an escape from a Chinese bio-weapon lab. I am willing to bet a lot more lethal bugs inhabit bio-weapon labs around the world.

Hope you feel better soon Scott.
My mother tested positive for COVID the day before Valentine's Day. It was spreading around her office. She had symptoms like feeling low on energy and a headache and lightheaded for a day or two before she took a test. I thought for sure that my father and I would get it since we all live in the same house, but she quarantined after testing and wore a mask for a bit after quarantine and we never did. We are all up to date on vaccines. They put her on Paxlovid and she was over COVID in about a week.
She went back to work as soon as guidelines said it was OK. The next day she was sick again. This time with more coughing and chest congestion. She went to urgent care that said she had rebound COVID and put her on antibiotics. That took longer to get rid of than the initial bout of COVID.
It's now over 5 weeks since she first got it and she's been free of most symptoms for awhile... but she has little energy still. She ended up quitting work for the year (she's retired but helps out at her old firm with payroll and taxes during tax season) because she doesn't have the energy to work right now and there's not that much time left that they'd need her. She's a workaholic and really gets into her work, so I know she's not feeling right if she's not going in.
That's as close as I've been to COVID so far and closer than I'd like to be.

Covid appears to be yesterday's news in Wales to a lot of people but COVID rates are at 63,200 and slowly climbing. These do not include Carehome residents and hospital staff.

...or maybe from F0rt Detrick...
for some strange reason, they got shut down when the p@ndemic was in full swing. even xi-Jin-ping told the world press to check F0rt Detrick when most of the media was pointing to wuh@n china. reminds me of The 12 Monkeys. pretty sure it is a level 4 bi0 l@b as well, just like wuh@n.
but since 2019 till now, h@waii had 381,570 cases. total deaths to date is 1,854.
1,854 / 381,570 = 0.0048588762.
to date, 0.4% of the people here who tested positive, died. 0.4% mortality seems like a shitty bi0 we@pon to me.
nationally, 103,957,053 cases. total deaths to date per cdc is 1,123,613.
1,123,613 / 103,957,053 = 0.0108084345.
to date, 1.08% of the people nationally that tested positive, died. 1.08% mortality rate. so, if it was released as a bi0 we@pon, it was not really effective in a short term sense. however, if it was designed to cause autoimmune disease, then we will have to see if mortality starts to ramp up at some point later in the future. some people talk about the increase in "excess deaths" in current times, is it just the beginning? from what i see at work, someone that was always masked in recent days just popped hot. the people that did not get vaxed have not popped hot. i got vaxed but no boosts, never popped hot since the "pandemic" hit here.
even with World Health Org data, 761,071,826 cases world wide. total deaths per WHO is 6,879,677.
that comes out to 0.0090394583. that translates to 0.9% mortality.
so world wide, less that 1 percent of the people that test positive, die from it.

Numbers don’t lie!
Never got sick, never got tested, never got vaxxed.
Let nature do its thing.

The doctor offered to call in Paxlovid for me on Thursday, but since I was feeling better I declined. Saturday night the coughing began, its mostly when I lie down. Luckily I have some real cough medicine or I would be in a real trouble. Codeine is the only thing that works for me but most doctors, including mine will not prescribe it. Today I feel better overall, but coughing and chest congestion persists. So who knows about the perceived Paxlovid connection. Your mom took it and got rebound COVID, I did not take take it and seem to have rebound COVID. The only one that wins on this is the drug maker.  |

has anyone tried, or know someone that has tried, Sudafed while experiencing c0vid symptoms? i'm talking the O.G. Sudafed that is "behind the counter" now. it has pseudoephedrine in it. back in my early 20's we would take Thermadrine or Ripped Fuel because it had Ma Huang (ephedra) in it. it is an expectorant and a bronchial dialator. so it helps you clear/cough out phlegm and it as a bronchial dialator, it opens up your air ways and passages. weight lifting sessions were longer, i could run 3 miles on the track and then some more. some days i would run 5 miles instead of the usual 3 mile goal. i think/feel that it increases you vO2 max or oxygen exchange efficiency.
...but then again, maybe we just used it to revvvv. it was like off-the-shelf speeds that you bought at GNC. i know this much, when i was taking ephedrine, i could read very fast, almost speed reading, and actually lock away and remember the information.
just a thought from the irie-lab.
