This is certainly an interesting time right now. I know many of us around the world are social distancing, self-quarantining, or whatever phrase you are using for it.
So let's take a moment and check-in here and let the community know how you're doing during all this.
There's an Omicron specific vaccine coming very soon:https://www.cnbc.com/2022/01/10/covid-vaccine-pfizer-ceo-says-omicron-vaccine-will-be-ready-in-march.html
Seems an Omicron-specific vaccine will be a bit late and a dog-chasing-its-tail approach anyway.
On one hand, I'm so glad you made it and on the other, unhappy you're still having problems. Still, you're here...and I'm grateful for that, Jan.
Rather amused that Pfizer's CEO has COVID. My dark side sometimes just can't keep quiet. Wouldn't wish it on anyone, but...
Darth ...err...Daiwa
I'm glad he had all his vaccinations, and was boosted. Probably due to that, he's only mildly symptomatic. He had initially delayed receiving the vaccine to enable others who were in higher risk groups to receive theirs first. He says he's starting Paxlovid, from what I've read in the news.
Just got out of the hospital yesterday. Was admitted last week Sunday Aug. 7th. I contracted a Sars2 variant of Covid. Odd thing was that 2 out of 2 Covid tests came back negative for the virus. I was vaccinated last year in March/April. This really kicked my ass !! I spent a week in a drug induced high. To top it off , I contracted pneumonia as a little icing on the cake. I'm back home now ,but still recovering from the pneumonia , which is a hell of a lot better than the agony of that Covid infection. Hope everyone stays well.

So glad to hear you're recovering, Ace.
Take your time and get some sunshine, and good food under your belt. 🖖🏻
Thank you so much Doc.
Thank you so much as well , Barb.
I've got Covid. Amazing when you consider I work at a Hospital. So far I just feel weak and a bit congested.
Get plenty of rest and fluids. Speedy recovery, Chasbo...
What the Doc said.
What he said...
Get well soon my friend!
Get well quick, Chasbo. Almost everyone does with this variant, but fatigue in particular can linger up to a few weeks.
Hope your feeling better soon, Chasbo!
Some great news...will need peer review, but this will be a game changer.

That's interesting. clearly a lot of potential. I'd really like a longer-lasting solution than what we have now. That article refers to a 3 month effectiveness for the vaccines and boosters we have now, I saw on the WHO site 4 to 6 months I think, either way it's really not long enough. I'd settle for a solid annual shot one way or another.
