Hey, hey, hey! I resemble that remark. I have had Covid, having gotten in on the ground floor in Late January of that year, before it was known to be spreading across the country. No masks, no known treatments. My lungs have never been the same, but I got over it. My primary care people jokingly refer to me as "patient zero", at least in their practice, one of the first in Jackson. Ain't air travel great? I had the antibodies (tested/documented and was a convalescent plasma donor for months. Been personally ordered to quarantine by the local board of health, who called me every day to make sure I was home and quarantined. I was 65 when I had it and supposedly in the highest danger group until the vaccines came out, then I wasn't old enough as supplies were limited. I did get the first two rounds when I was once again old enough. I got boosted in time for ski season. Two weeks ago, I got boosted again before this ski season. Yes, my vax dance card is full, and I am heading back to Colorado again for more skiing, in January. I have suffered no ill effects of the Moderna vaccines, I have taken, other than a 24 hour fever, I treated with Aleve and chicken soup, before being back to normal. The recurring cough (left over from the initial bout of Covid) didn't keep me from the mountains. I hiked (11 miles round trip) up another one this year with pack and can't wait to hit the ski slopes again.
If I listened to you guys, I'm supposed to already be dead. People need to do what is best for them, no matter what this board recommends. Oh, and I will probably be wearing mask during all upcoming air travel, whether you do or not.
Older people seem to do okay with the vaccines.
It's the younger people falling over dead.
Really and literally. But oh well, right?
