Re: Coronavirus Outbreak
It seems consistent with what I’ve read so far — having Covid does give you immunity, but it’s unclear for how long or how durable it is.Soloist wrote: ↑Fri Apr 23, 2021 12:15 pmYou might be interested in this https://www.nih.gov/news-events/nih-res ... y-covid-19Szdfan wrote: ↑Fri Apr 23, 2021 11:58 am It’s recommended to get the Covid vaccine even if you have had it.

Re: Coronavirus Outbreak
I had some side-effects when I got the shots —mostly chills and exhaustion — but it was nowhere near as bad as when I had Covid.mike wrote: ↑Fri Apr 23, 2021 1:48 pmI plan to get the shots once they are readily available and if they're free, because why not.

Other than the voices in my head telling me to buy Windows 10, I haven’t had any long-term effects.

But let’s keep things locked down, closed, and everyone wearing masks anyway. Or maybe people should really be required to walk around with a grounded lightning rod attached to their mask now too.

Re: Coronavirus Outbreak
I have actually been struck by lightning. Does that increase or deduce my chances with a vaccine that has not been FDA approved?

Re: Coronavirus Outbreak
Only increased chance of being struck by lightning while being injected. Don't receive your covid vaccine under a tree.

Re: Coronavirus Outbreak
On the plus side, getting struck by lightning while being injected will probably fry and disable the Bill Gates tracking chip that comes with your vaccine. So there's that.
