Covid, again.

Phooey! I hope you feel better soon. I would have thought that you aren't exposed to the crowds that city folks are - and thus, would be less likely to encounter a bad bug. I guess it goes to show, don't take anything for granted. I will schedule my shot.

Jodi, so sorry you got it again! I had it twice (I think.) I got the Covid booster a few weeks ago but still need the flu shot.

Better the last couple of days. Now I just feel like I have a “regular” cold, lol. Two days of absolute miserable, two days of bad on either side of that. Steve has hand surgery on Thursday for his Dupuytren’s contracture, so he’s out of commission for doing most things. So far he hasn’t caught covid, so we are hopeful. Ever since my back issues (when he had to do everything for 4 months) he’s been doing half the cooking and most of the grocery shopping which has been really nice. Now it’s my turn to do it all again, so I’m glad I’m getting better!

Feel better soon

Jodi I didn't realize it was you that got Covid--I thought you meant Steve. If it makes you feel any better, I got it for the first time last year a month after getting my fourth booster--so apparently the booster didn't help much. What did help was Paxlovid--a day after taking it, I felt almost normal.
Having said all that, I am going to get both Covid and flu shots this week. I think I can just walk in at CVS....
Feel better!!

There seems to be a misconception about what the vaccine/boosters accomplish. They don't seem to keep you from catching Covid - but what they are really good at is keeping you from spiraling down into needing to go to the hospital. The jury still seem to be out as to whether additional boosters are needed to keep an infection from needing hospital care.

"They don't seem to keep you from catching Covid...'
I know that!
Me and my wacky internet conspiracies.
Lol.
