Sorry to hear about this BigJay.

I take vitamin C (extended release so as not to upset my digestive tract), vitamin D, zinc and of course a daily multivitamin. I'm not a doctor so I don't know if that all works but if I've ever had Covid, I didn't know about it.
Just an update. I caught Covid a couple months ago. Had a fever of 100 degrees (urgent care doc said that's hardly a fever). Continued to.work each day. Scratchy throat and cough, occasional runny nose. Slept really well. I wouldn't mind getting it again if I had a spell of not being able to sleep.

Still on my vitamin regimen and hydration regimen.

Covid doesn’t have a fight with the healthy people of the world, was this your 1st time getting it ?

Yes, first time getting it. Pureblood, no vax.

I go to the doctors multiple times a year (PCP/cardiologist) and make sure all my labs/CT Scans/etc. are good. My white blood cell count is normal so I'm guessing that's what keeps Covid at bay.

I don't know how many people remember, but for the most part most people were not at risk of death from Covid and there should have been no lock downs. Only elderly above 65 and those in at-risk groups had the risk of death. Perhaps those people should have been kept out of circulation but certainly not the majority of us who healthy.

Have no idea - but ultimately I have decided the vaccine is no longer worth the risk. I suspect that a large percentage of people have came to similar conclusions based on the percentage seeking out the next generation of vaccines.

When it first came on the scene - it was much more severe and the chances of an unproven vax were worth the risk of minimizing the symptoms. As it has made the rounds a few years now and the number of severe cases has dropped - it's becoming clearer it's more of a "nuisance" virus for most rather than a severe disease. I did get it pretty bad about 18 months ago - took me off my feet for a day and a half.

Had it about 3 years ago after a cruise - one of the first cruises they did following the shutdown - wasn't fun, but wasn't any worse than any flu I've had.

Also suspect it is what likely did my mom in - officially was a heart attack - but this was late 2020 and she was in a nursing home dealing with progressing Parkinson's - honestly, heart attack was the easiest way to go - no pain, no long drawn out hospital stay - just passed peacefully one night. The nursing home of course would never say COVID and because it happened NYE - the coroner didn't even start an inquist until 5 days later and again wasn't about to say COVID or relate in any way to the shot she had just received a day earlier.
