Covid comes to the SK household

If he's not feeling terrible now he's not likely to. I've had it four times now, once from a funeral and three times flying, and only spent one day in bed. I believe the vaccines do what they are supposed to.

You say Mr. SK got the vaccine and still got Covid? That’s not how it’s supposed to work.

Actually, that is how it works.
From Mayo Clinic:
Getting a COVID-19 vaccine helps to keep you healthy. The vaccine protects against serious illness, the need for hospital care due to COVID-19 and death from COVID-19.

It may help some people to not get sick at all, but as importantly, it reduces the severity if you do get it. As @mik said, no worse than a day or two of feeling poorly, rather than getting severely ill and needing to be hospitalized. Especially important as we get older, as our immune systems are not as robust and we can't fight off various bugs as well as we did when we were younger.

@andyd - were those cases (yours and the person who got long covid) a while back? I thought that the current variants tend to be far less serious, more along the lines of the average case of the flu.

Yes, nowadays people seem to have effective herd immunity. A work colleague of my sister had covid confirmed and we then wondered if the latest cold we've had was covid.

@shirokuro I'm sorry. I hope Mr. SK gets well soon. I hope you don't get sick.
@realplayer Efficacy of the vaccines has never been shown with data, actually. The head of Pfizer flat out admitted this in a speech to the EU a long time ago and nothing has changed.
People want to stone me in the public square when I say this but oh well.
This technology is radically different than what people think of as- "a vaccine".
Also, it can have debilitating, and even deady, side effects.
I choose not to get Covid "vaccinations".
I regret having ever done it, personally.
