As expected

"So-called “hybrid immunity”—from vaccination and infection—offers better protection against severe disease and hospitalization from COVID than immunity from infection alone, according to a new study published in The Lancet.
...
Those who developed hybrid immunity had a 95% lower chance of becoming severely ill with COVID or requiring hospitalization a year later, according to the study, which examined data from 26 other studies. Those who were previously infected but not vaccinated experienced reduced protection against the same. Their risk was only 75% lower, researchers found."

Gee, a video of Retsef Levi - the same guy who chose to get vaccinated because.....?????
The same guy who about a year ago flat out admitted/said "we don't have proof" about the correlation between the vaccine and heart issue increases in Israel.
The same guy who is making an opinion based and not factual statement about the mRNA vaccine.

Higher COVID-19 Vaccination Rates Are Associated with Lower COVID-19 Mortality: A Global Analysis

A 10-percentage-point increase in vaccination was associated with an 18.1% decrease in mortality after 6 months (95%CI, 7.4–28.8%) and a 16.8% decrease after 12 months (95%CI, 6.9–26.7%). A 10-percentage-point increase in booster vaccination rates was associated with a 33.1% decrease in COVID-19 mortality (95%CI, 16.0–50.2%). This relationship is present in most analyses by country income groups with variations in the effect size. Efforts are needed to reduce vaccine hesitancy while ensuring suitable infrastructure and supply to enable all countries to increase their vaccination rates.

Similar to the advice I gave my wife about how to make a young child sleep quietly. Just turn off the baby monitor.

Not sure why she disagreed.

I hope you're well soon. It's on you for getting tested.

As I don't like to say - That's JUNK! Sorry to read it. Hope it's not too bad and you get through it as well as possible.

That's one way to (or not to) diagnose it.
Have you ever been tested for having a brain?

I know someone who assumes any time someone else sneezes or coughs - that person has Covid.
Believe me, it's extremely annoying.
On the flip side, I know someone who 3 different times assured me they didn't have Covid and then all 3 times ended up testing positive for Covid. That's been even more annoying.

Meh, I've heard it's like the common cold.

[TDub]

1 day of not feeling good (for all of us)

1 day of being able to shit through a screen door at 50 yards (me only apparently)

luckily it was pretty mild for us. We are all vaccinated, but not quad boosted or whatever its up to now.

If we hadn't been advised to test after possible exposure, I never would've known it wasn't just a standard bug. Thankfully.

Hope you’re fully well soon, TDub. Glad it’s only mild. Best to you and your family
