Will you get vaccinated?

[mtpockets]

I know quite a few people locally that went through hell with covid, a couple croaked, one very fit young lady who was into strength training and half marathons has her sh!t totally fukked up by it. She is only now starting to come around a bit and walking about 2 miles a day. This is after 18 months of long covid. Her biggest regret is not getting the shot.

Other than what I have read in the news, I personally don't know anyone who had lasting ill effects from the shot...






I am not advocating the shot nor am I discouraging it. It's something people to decide for themselves and I wouldn't sh!t on anyone either way.

Appreciate your comments and informed opinion JTD

Pockets, those above are the cases that blow my mind.
How does that even happen?

... ... ... ...However, I will take a shot of good whiskey as an honorary shot.

Wow, if that's how it works I'm so ****** vaccinated in the last couple of years on their own, I'm going to live to 200 or more. Just got back from my local shop with a bottle of Highland Park 10 Dragon Legend (same as usual Highland Park 10, but stronger peat smoke and richer sherry cask). Have a lot of work to do tonight until late, but after I'm finished going to open that bottle and raise a glass to COVID for you guys. "Your health!"

There has been covid going around the folks I know. A boasted dude got it for his 3rd time, and he was still so sick he had to take off his remote job, he gets every boaster.

I still haven’t gotten it yet.

Must be those super man high rep squats and the RAW garlic. That comment will bring in our idiot know it all, lol.

But raw garlic does strengthen immune system.

There you go

MT, that is a horrible story about that girl athlete. I hope she fully recovers and her being in top shape might have saved her life. Best

[OldFartTom]

Doesn't taste that much more peat than the usual 10, but a lot more sweet sherry cask.


Slàinte mhath!

(Your health!)

Got the Rona from wife.

Wife is boasted, I’m not.

My symptoms hit me before her, however she said she felt a bit different two days before I got symptoms. But didn’t think anything of it.

Her symptoms are slowly coming on now.

I lost my voice yesterday and my tonsils were so swollen. I haven’t slept in days.

So how does the vax “protect” others.

At least I can still carry my dog down the steps.

Garlic keeps vampires away, not the Rona

I hope that you and Missus Tater feel better soon.


Some people will do anything to get out of a colonoscopy

The symptoms read like a list with little overlap except fatigue.
good luck since it shows up in many weird ways

Got out of fasting.

I was eating slices and slices of cheese when my throat was at its worst.

In the middle of the night I scooped some ice cream into a glass and added whole milk. In 20 minutes my stomach felt like a brick. I got up to grab some ice to put on head, I collapsed on the way back. I was on the floor with my butt up in that air gaging holding my head with ice and blasted a monster fart.

fyi, dairy causes mucus production and inflammation in cells

Hows he Missus doing?

Reminded me of this review on Amazon that went viral a few years back:

Maybe reading it will make you feel better.

Will you get vaccinated?

Yes, I was vaccinated against Diphtheria, Pertussis, Tetanus, and Polio in grade school.



Haven't died yet.

I thought it was funny though.

Been drinking hot tea with honey all day.

She has only had a head cold and zero throat issues. She was never down and out like me, so now I keep being told about how great the boaster is.

I’ve still been able to carry the dog down the steps all day and in middle of night. No accidents under my watch with the dog. Since my dog is on steroids and is old there times she needs to go out several times in just a couple hours. She just walks around back and forth and eats, eats, eats. This is a 16+ year old dog.

Got my first night of sleep. Day 5 and I’m doing some upright rows while taking out the dog.

Interesting thing, day 1 of symptoms, my tendon strain pain disappeared and my finger strain from gripping and hanging on the door edge disappeared too. My ring fingers were swollen for over a week from that, every time I gripped anything it hurt, disappeared on day 1 of Covid.

I have zero body aches.

That’s the garlic!

Ben, interesting about the dairy, as yes the mucus was very bad, but it did stop. The cheese was the only thing I could get down at that point. I see now, I had some ice cream on day 1, that could have fuked me up, that was mamas idea, lol. Was bad for like 30 hours now all gone.

My experience was similar to your wifes, no throat, issues and mostly a head cold, no chest or serious coughing issues. It took 13 days for me to test negative from the day I started feeling off, but my case was mild compared to what you and others have experienced. I was boosted too.


It's great that you got some sleep, hopefully you will bounce back fast, the worst is over and you will be back at the lifting soon.

I got my Flu shot a couple of days ago, Covid took me out in early January last year and I missed a couple of weeks of prime ice fishing for the first time (other than deployments) in over 50 years, I am doing everything to prevent that this year. lol

Heal up Brother, those bagels ain't going to eat themselves.
