Well it finally arrived: took long enough.

Wife and I both have covid.

We're fully immunized.

Not worried, the effects are pretty light: body aches, runny nose, brief fever: no chest pain or trouble breathing.

Thanks for the vax, science...


How did you get it if you were immunized? Why would you be thanking science for a vax that did not work?

Vaccines activate your immune system to fight the virus. They don't walk out of your body and fight it. Which school closed that enabled you to know so little?

But he said not only he caught it but his spouse also caught it. Their system didn’t fight it off. Neither of them.

Do you know how to read?

If you knew how to learn from reading you wouldn't need to ask the question.

My wife got covid two and a half weeks ago and she still sick as a dog. I have to listen to her everyday on the phone scared that she's never going to get better. And she had all the immunizations and all the boosters. I've had none of it.

So let me get this straight. The man got "fully immunized", yet it turns out that his immunization DIDN'T immunize him after all lol.....
And to top it off, he EXPECTED to get Covid (re: "took long enough"), so he knew that the vax wouldn't even work, yet he STILL got it. 🤦‍♂️


LOL

Fully immunized does NOT mean fully protected.

I never was told by science that getting the jabs would PREVENT me from contracting covid; I was told that the vax would likely LESSEN the effects of the flu when and if contracted, and that has been the case for the two of us.

Not all vaccines prevent an illness as does the smallpox vax.

The covid virus appears to have new variants arise from time to time: this complicates things.

I know, you couldn't resist your smarmy reply but riddle me this: if as may be you and / or some of the other righteously unvaccinated bobble heads here are senior citizens and / or have underlying health issues such as diabetes...How well do you think you'll fare when and if The Covid Kid knocks at your door?

Perhaps when / if you are intubated, fighting for your life, your chest feeling like cement you might have second thoughts about the vax?

Whatever...we all make our choices, and I've no regrets: the vaccine seems to have worked as intended.

So you're happy that you got an "immunization" that did NOT immunize you and gave you ZERO immunity from Covid?!?!?
OK man........... 🤦‍♂️ 😂😂😂
