I wouldn't be so sure. Insurance companies looking at policies, actuaries pouring over data, SADS, fibrous clots, majority of covid related hospital admissions are vaccinated individuals... I could go on and on. No offense to anyone who got it, but I'm glad I didn't. The whole mess was a trial run for things to come. Did you see Pfizer before the European Council recently? "There was no time to test... We had to get it to market."

At work a fellow bought it home from a cruise early on before lockdowns. We all got what we thought was the flu. We all assume it was the vid now.

Later, I got a typical runny nose this past spring or the spring before ??? Time flies... Anyway it wasn't unusual for allergy season and I didn't feel sick. Maybe a week of it. Maybe. Then I realized I couldn't taste or smell. Lasted a few weeks. Probably the vid. So either twice or the first time wasn't. Never tested myself. Speaking of tests... when the Post office was sending out the free tests up here... y'know the home tests that were out in mailboxes in our upstate NY subzero north weather... the ones labeled "do not freeze." Gotta love it. Why yes, I am cynical.

Sounds very like what I had! Everything tasted like metal to me. Sweet metal, hot metal, salty metal, etc etc. No distinction in tastes though; it was all metal. Ugh.

Same
Exposed on a large scale every day at work
I did read that “science” now believes that 10% of the population is immune for reasons not worth getting into here.
My youngest daughter and son-in-law have it. Was chastised by the Department That Tells Me What To Do Department for being pissed-off that he gave it to our daughter. Daughter said this is worse than the first time she got it which is what I am hearing from the peoples peoples at work.

I have a list of things I don’t discuss in public or anywhere. Occasionally I will cross some of those lines here and there but not at work or in public.

China Bug/Shots/masks…anything related
Religion
Politics
Added Pit-Bulls to the list a few months ago.

This saves me from a lot of weirdness

I bet there are some great stories behind these topics being off limits.

Most people of both parties consider the government to be the biggest problem facing the United States.

I had to recently add pit bulls too. So many people with small kids have them. They say they just sweet puppies and they are from my experience, but the statistics tell a much different story.
