This just in. Gonna need 62 shots plus 14 boosters to stop the spread. give it up already. I have noticed the usual suspects aren’t quite singing the same tune anymore.

Me too

Thanks. Hes good about keeping his distance when hes sick. Hes got every cover in the house on him right now trying to sweat it out. Hes in and out of consciousness. This is pretty typical for him when he's ill though. I asked him if he wanted me to run him a bath and he declined. We're on opposite sides of the couch and I'm letting him control the TV because I'm not touching that remote unless its lysoled. Luckily I have video games from christmas so I have something to do. He took colladial silver and vitamins and Im pumping water. Got the humidifier going and just praying now. We're both in our thirtys and other than anxiety and my hbp we're pretty healthy

Find out where the closest monoclonal antibody center is. If you do need it you won’t have to find it.

Yeah, I can’t believe how many people have it this time. Lots on here and lots of the you tubers I watch. I really think we are all going to need to get it so we have natural immunity to the next variant.

It was reported the local ER is so full they are sending patients to other hospitals. So when DH became sick after an ileoscopy we were scared to go to the ER yet his Dr couldn't do an urgent appointment fast enough so decided to 'peek' in the windows. Found an empty row where we could hear people coughing and vomiting but there was Plexi glass between us. Waited almost 3 hours to get him into bed...but it was a section of 6 patients (in beds separated by curtains) with visitors waiting for a room. He was here over 24 hours till a room got empty- had a perforated intestine and intra abdominal infection. They were moving people from there to a room and bringing in the next person with their visitors. Dh is super immune compromised and I was so glad to have him back home after five days. They have 190 COVID patients there. I don't believe the ER is that busy entirely because there are that many COVID patients there. I believe it also has alot to do with added rules,regulations and protocols.
I'm just waiting till science explains why some people seemingly escape it and others get so sick

3 AM. Just woke up to the sound of hubby vomiting followed by diarrhea. I woke up and went to get a glass of water. He came out of the bathroom and daid "i think its a bacterial infection" to which I said "no you freaking have covid CALL OFF WORK"

Lovesfarms,
About waiting for science to explain why some people seeingly escape it and others get so sick ...

This is might help. It was why some get it at all and others don't but kinda covers both. At least gives some places to start with your own study on it if you don't trust my study of it.

They have. There is more than one reason. I think the most important is viral load but how much viral load a given person can get without getting covid depends on the rest of the reasons.

Among the more significant reasons are zinc deficiency (or not), amount/quality of sleep (results in differences in melatonin), previous exposure (naturally or vax or (maybe) as antibody treatment).

There is a lot of talk about vitamin D and vitamin C also, but it seems they have more to do with the severity of covid than with whether or not one gets it in the first place. I'm not sure about this part... they do have some roles in keep viruses from getting through the mucous layers and /or out of cells like zinc does.

More info. Thankfully, MUCH easier to read than many research papers. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7750357/

Comorbidities are also talked about a lot but they also seem to have more to do with severity than with getting it or not. There is also some evidence that some or most the common comorbidities are such because of the effect they have on zinc, vitamin D, and vitamin C levels rather than directly.

Selenium and iodine levels may also make a difference.

That's what I was thinking until people started getting it again 6 months to a year after the first time they had it.

I hope your DH heals quickly.

I do not understand why they are not testing peoples blood for antigen and anbdies and figuring out what level is clinical significant. The cry of just keep getting vaccinated is getting old. Please give me some science about the level of immunity in our blood stream.
