Just thought I'd add to this by saying the whole covid deal is a raw deal full stop.

Have been covid free myself, but ended up with Peri and myocarditis from the second shot unluckily, and spent 9 days in ICU in heart failure. Troponins 18000, ANAs at 270 and CRPs at close to 500, ejection fraction at 33%, bizarre plasma viscosity and fibrinogen counts...damn autoimmune disease.

My mate ended up with a clot and a massive heart attack two weeks after his second shot. Still has the bruising from his clexane shot. 5 days in ICU. Also lost a work mates dad to myocarditis after his booster.

Covids going crazy here, but haven't known anyone with it that has ended up with more than cold and flu symptoms and fever/fatigue. Nearly losing myself and a mate put me back a few steps mentally.

I'm due for a booster soon, but I'm a little sceptical after the last issue, and issues after the 1st. Luckily I'm social in a distanced way. I despise pubs, clubs and any places that revolve around needing 100 drunk, arrogant patrons to feel validated to begin with, and all my activities are outdoors like hiking, camping and bike touring, so my chances of getting it are pretty slim.

I've just got to make It past the booster alive. If I don't get it I can't visit sick family members or exist in society without being called some form of terrorist.

What gets even scarier about the social climate it's creating is this massive cancel culture. Our health ministers are being banned from Twitter and Facebook for stating basic case numbers and side effects. A health minister came out yesterday and mentioned "good results" from the children's rollout, with only a handful of deaths and a hundred and something serious reactions out of 350k doses. I think the exact tweet was endorsing the vaccine rollout for children which is ironic that it was labelled "anti Vax". It went along the lines of "good news, only 3 deaths and 106 serious reactions out of 377000 doses", yet was immediately removed and the health minister banned from Twitter.

Was labelled as "anti Vax and anti authority sentiments" just for stating the number of adverse reactions in children, which we deserve to know regardless of it being good or bad.

I'm not liking this at all. Things should be transparent without the threat of bring silenced and called a terrorist.

Did they ever get that Mad Cow Disease under control, and figure out the social cost?

So far they say it's like a head cold, could be a false negative from a home test also. Not really worth getting a better test though.

Between my daughter, son in law and their baby, the baby is the sicker out of them all. She had a 103 fever going night before last. They both got symptoms. Vaxxed, not boosted yet though because they lagged getting the first 2 because her mom is an anti vaxxer weirdo. She ended up getting the vax too though finally.

The worst part is there is nothing you can do but worry.

We were like that here in Mass around xmas. Both of us are vaxxed.
I got exposed at a work xmas party, and 3 days later fever. She got sick 3 days after that.
Fever only lasted about 3 days, and head cold/bronchial problems started a day or two after the fever broke. I am still coughing but i am a smoker, she is not and has been good for a week or two now. Be safe
