I think I may have Covid.

Weeeel.....I was replying to moparker.

I saw that and I was just backing your reply up…

I’m in Chongqing China right now. Last 5 trips here brought it home 3x. Including November 2019. I may have been patient 1?

wait, weren't you telling everybody about Chinese women a week ago???

Don't want anything to do with her! My wife is more than good enough and more!

See if I was speaking Oklahoman I would say, "I've got the Covid." It's always like that, I've got the cancer. We also say I'm going to the Walmart. I don't know why, we just do. Or putting now at the end of every sentence. I'll be goin' to the Walmart now.

Thankee now. We wouldn't spell it that way but it would sound that way. At the end of every phone call I say a-bye. I think it's a contraction of alright goodbye. Not sure. Reba McIntyre is a good example of Oklahoma speak.

So tell us more. Since Covid wasn't really on the radar in November 2019 outside of China, when did you decide/discover that is what you had in 11/19. How bad of case was it then?

Its's my thinking all mutable severe deadly viruses over time become less lethal, as a virus's lethality actually prevents its long term spread/survival. by killing the host/victim.

I attended the annual PRI convention in Indy in mid 12/19 (going on today as I type) with 10k+ attendees from all over the world (including China) shoulder to shoulder picking up every newest offering single race car part. Show ends on Sat afternoon, I felt icky on Monday, was sick in bed for 5 days on Tuesday morning. Told my kids I might have to cancel Christmas. Never been so sick in my life. Nobody knew what Covid was back then.

I always wondered why I never caught officially COVID, maybe it's the herd immunity, until a year ago when I home tested positive and was sick for few days, no big deal, but all the symptoms identical to 12/19, and this time I was aware of the loss of smell, which has never recovered. BTW, I have had 8 COVID shots, (1st and 2nd got the strongest reactions, after that hardly any) and I will not stop until I die, from whatever the cause.

I got the jab for it today, wondering if I’ll feel out of it tomorrow like I did with the first one years ago. They brought up the flu shot too but too many people around me have had an adverse reaction to that to put me off on the idea.

 

[j-c-c-62]

I got both shots the last two times.
At first, they felt it was best 30 days apart for the shots.
I suspect not a big deal either way, except when getting both, it leans itself to some uncertainty which shot is responsible for a reaction.

I had the worst cough I’ve ever had and lost taste and smell completely. Got better over Christmas and was only able to see my Dr first week of January. The symptoms for the virus were consistent with what I had. There were no tests at that time. My Dr called the CDC with me in his office because of my recent travel history. The CDC bozo said that if I was in China after November 26 they would have put me in quarantine. I asked him why as all the symptoms were pretty much gone. He repeated the November 26 date. In 2020 I didn’t travel at all. Then had to get the jab to travel again starting in 2021. What China did to their citizens was nasty. They were contained (locked in) the buildings they lived in. Our facility in Chongqing had all the people living there for about a year. If they left and were contacted they could have ended up in a government quarantine facility. My next trip into China found that because of the lockdowns, more people were sick as they were just then being exposed.
China airports still have temperature monitoring in place.

 

[j-c-c-62]

Ok, so you first got sick in China in 11/19?
I missed that, and now it all makes sense. Thanks.
Yea, my cough was so severe and long my stomach muscles were in agony coughing and at rest.

 

[Skytrooper]

4 timer here. First time Jan 6, 2020. People really didn’t know what it was then. Damn sick for 4-5 days with raging fever. Got my 2 part vaccine in April and may 2020. Booster that December. 2nd time feb 2021. Booster dec 2021. 3rd time sept 2022. 4th oct 2023.

I am all done with vaccines and boosters.

It’s amazing how Covid cured the common cold and flu. Researchers worked for years trying to come up with a cure for the common cold and flu, then covid magically made it disappear.

Horse paste?

Ivermectin. You couldn’t get it during the planademic because it cured COVID in a couple of days. Doctors were told not to prescribe it. What they didn’t ban was horse dewormer which is ivermectin. So people where cleaning out Tractor Supply for horse dewormer which became affectionately known, amongst the people in the know, as horse paste. For what it’s worth I don’t think the apple flavor tastes very much like apple. Eventually the powers to be caught on and made it more difficult to get it from Tractor Supply but not impossible if you know some tricks. Also did you know that e-mox for your pet fish is 100% amoxicillin? Just saying.

 

[Unkle Krusty]

I got all the jabs. As a super senior it seemed like the right thing to do. Many years ago I got the small pox, polio, measles jabs. At least I think that’s what they were. Recent Scientific America has an article on the success of vaccines.
Built a house during the shut down. Then got covid earlier this year. Had the symptons listed, confirmed by the covid test. Had a lousy three days. Also had sore knees later which might be long covid, but getting over that.
Having the symptons, using the test kit, it is hard to listen to folks that say it is not real, and some kind of hoax, and the Govt. is crooked when trying to safe guard the population.
But a review of the numbers tells the tail.

 

[moparker]

My doctor prescribed Paxlovid. Not Ivermectin. It straightened me out in a couple days. Horse paste can stay for the horses.

 

[68gtxman]

Have your doctors informed you all to take 10,000 units of vitamin D every day???

 

[Hey-O]

I got the Covid shots because of Theresa's immunity issues, the first time it showed up. Everything went fine and I won't be getting anymore. I've been getting a yearly flu shot for over 30 years and the once and done pneumonia shot. I've never had Covid and I can't remember the last time I had the flu or a cold, but I'm sure I have, but I think the Covid shot may have erased my memory, I can't remember. I would NEVER say I don't get all of them because of the shots, but I've never had a reaction to any of it either. I don't have the answers, but I don't think the elitists in this world of ours where trying to thin the herd either. I'm not a conspiracist or dig holes in the ground to hide in, with my 200,000 rounds of ammunition, buckets full of food that can be stored for 20 years and 200 guns either, I invested that money instead and double it to use while I'm walking around among the elite. I think the world is just screwed up equally across the spectrum. I'm not interested in wasting my time on any of it, I'm smart enough to know I'm 68 years old and they haven't got me yet.......... I wish they'd try, I could use the entertainment.

Reminds of the conversation I had with my last primary care doctor when we both turned 66, and she retired. She was in awesome shape, still wearing a mini skirt and shoulder length hair. Said the two of us were young at heart, with great numbers, but medically speakng, we were now old. Told me we had both reached the age where stuff would start coming out of the woodwork, and surprise, not too far down the road, some of it was going to do us in, enjoy the rest of the ride and accept reality.

I have a specialist for several body parts that I go too yearly, excluding my primary doctor. Age is a killer and you can bet you're not going to get out of here alive. Theresa is getting better by the day and we run around a lot more than before. Life tried to steal her psychologically, it didn't win. I believe in doctors, but they absolutely know I don't play. Teamwork is the key, Theresa, the doctors and me. Life is very good, but I'm a realist, it's also short, unforgiving and unpredictable. We're just doing our thing and greatful, very grateful. I pay it forward everyday, that's the deal I made with the other guy on my team, God!!!!
