Hands up if one of the C-waves rolled you...

My wife has it, I have it and my daughter has also tested positive. My daughter has few symptoms, my wife and I went through the washing machine. You guys must have known something was wrong when you got no response to the airfryer thread.
I think the worst of it is over for us and there was no need for hospitalization, but the symptoms have been very far from pleasant. The brain fugue is the worst. When you put the coffee jar in the fridge next to the milk and then for your next cup search the house because you can't find the coffee ... well !!!
 
Just been informed that my brother's son might have it. :facepalm: Kiddo had a very bad cough and tight chest this morning and they took him to the doc. Doc booked him into hospital. Awaiting his test results now.

what’s worse is I know people who still believe Covid isn’t real.

Unbelievable.. I've had a couple of people telling me that I'll be stupid to get the vaccine as government will chip me... My reply is always that I hope the chipping makes me a better sex machine...

I am feeling TONS better today, I have the occasional phlegmy cough and my taste/smell is still on walkabout.
Franciske is struggling with her breathing and she is panicked about throbbing pains in her lower abdomen. She is trying to get an appointment at the gynae, just to make sure everything is still as it should be.
Luckily her oxygen levels are still looking good.

So glad to hear that you're feeling much better @CJB85 and I hope that Franciske's abdominal pain is nothing serious.

Sorry for your loss @baksteen8168. I don't think there is a family that was spared by this pandemic. And some people are still in doubt whether they should get the vaccine or not :facepalm: it's really tragic

Thanks @Grand Guru . I think this last wave is hitting very close to home for a lot of people. I have been taking great care at social distancing and the like because if I get it then I am almost certain it will be tickets for me (I have severe asthma). This is (subconsciously) probably the reason that I haven't been buying gear off the classies lately:wondering:

Vague shapes appeared and then moved on whilst my body toiled against the chills and aches

No up or down, no side to side just moving un propelled

Jumbled thoughts making sense of no sense

fear dancing with logic

Thanking God for the gift of the brain stem telling the conscious brain that you are in fact not going to die.

Slowly breaking the surface of this reality to realise another exists.

And through it all the man still writes poetry!! Kudos to you @Stranger!
 
Day 15 and we out of isolation.
The post covid phase is almost as bad as the covid phase..
Right now we both have exteme fatigue and wife has broken out in hives/shingles over her whole body and I have digestive problems with constant nausea.

But on the flip side we alive and got through this and didn't become a statistic.

Just for those with Covid who vape.

I vaped through this entire time.

Switched to a pnp smart chill 0.2 ohm coil at 38 watts, set to a MTL draw.

I found a bottle of vapor mountain juice in my cupboard that is about 1 year old which became my life saver during this time...

I have had a few of those people, who dont have covid, and haven't had it yet, yet they say " I know how you must be feeling" and why don't you take this medication, and do this and do that.

Unless you have personally got/had covid you will not, and cannot, understand how this feels and how this hits you.. so please stop telling me you know how I must feel and NOOOOOOOO this is not just like the flu....

And for those antivacinators out there...
Go and get yourself a dose of this Covid Delta Variant and then come and talk to me...

Jokes aside though, Happy to see that you're on the mend. I've heard from people who had covid that the post covid period is also a crappy one (better than having it, but still crappy) Chin up @DougP , you'll beat this.

Definitely, I haven't had it and have no idea how it felt. But can you guarantee that if I get the vaccine that kids that my wife and I want will not be born with something wrong? This is not far fetched either, many medications and vaccines have caused birth defects from not testing properly, just like these vaccines that are available now.
What I'm trying to say is each to their own, I'm not against vaccines, I take my 6 month baby for all her shots. But for us we want more kids and we are not willing to gamble that this can cause major problems to fetus in development.

This is one of those debates where each party will have their own viewpoint and stance.
I respect each person for what they feel, believe and their stance so will not try and debate with them or try and convince them otherwise..

Right now we are all United in joint survival against a horrible pandemic. All we can do is stand strong and support each other through this tough time regardless of our views...
I stand by your decision @Munro3, stay safe and stay strong

I'm not debating, there is no right or wrong here, just why some people decide not to get the vaccine. My parents are going, and they both had Covid 3 weeks ago.

We have someone that is "very religious" and said that the vaccine is from the devil. Once you have had it it will change your dna and if you walk under a special type of light your blood will glo blue. This is how the believers will be separated from the non believers, if you have the blue blood you will not enter into heaven..this I might add is the same person who's church believes Donald Trump is a Messiah sent by God.

My comment regarding antivacinators was targeted at these "tin foil hat" lunie bins, a few of which I have bumped into...

Haha! Yes I know, just balancing it out that there are valid reasons. But the 5G magnetic people are funny! If it really does give super powers I'll be first in line!
