What with all the mild symptoms talk, I was wondering what to look for.

but I'm not sure how reliable the numbers are now.
Do you have a place you trust for accurate data?

I'm working in home health and I'm astounded by the number of co-workers who are saying there is no spread of COVID.

I know a OB nurse who still isn't vaxxed. She doesn't see the need.

But ever hear of a columnist named or pseudonym Marilyn Vos Savant? Supposedly she had the highest score on some IQ or Mensa test. Someone thought it would be a good idea to give her a Q&A column. One time she went on a "rant" about how soap doesn't really kill germs. Just goes to show the ability to solve puzzles doesn't necessarily = "smarts".

from the start of this thing.

Have you checked out Japan and S Korea? Scary! And Japan is one of the best countries as far as masking goes. They must not be using the N95 types. I have seen them wear cheap surgical masks that suck against Covid so I am surprised they aren't encouraging the correct masks to their citizens.

Age 72. Had a sore throat one day in mid July. Took my temp. Slight fever. Did a quick Covid test. Positive. Tested again with a different test kit. Positive. Called my doctor and got a scrip for Paxlovid.

Two days of sore throat, fever max of 101.8F, achy, dry cough. Pretty much normal after those two days. Did the whole five day Paxlovid regimen. Stayed isolated for a week.

Fully vaxxed (Pfizer) double boosted, last booster April 4, 2022. Hoping to get the new booster soon.w

be getting the next booster and flu shot together. It sounds like you had the flu but the test was the real answer. I just got more free ones in the mail. Did you have to go to the doctor's office while sick or did he send the Rx without having to see you?

The two positive results on two different rapid tests was good enough for her. There are very few false positives according to Google. She called in the scrip for Paxlovid and I asked a friend to pick it up for me so I could start as soon as possible. According to the NYT, it is recommended that you wait 4 - 6 months after your last booster or infection before getting the new booster. That will be about December 1 for me.
