Ryfly05,Confirmed, ....... ...... I didn't think you actually had anything tangible to ad as usual. You had a few people post about their real world, first hand experience with COVID. They didn't chose a side, they based their contribution to the thread on "experience" something you obviously lack on this subject matter as well as motorcycles. Once again you join a conversation that is over your pay grade. Do you ever have anything worth saying? Now, go .... yourself you no talent ..... bucket and let the adults progress.

i always wonder why people bash Rogan.
he’s not the source of information in those podcasts.
He asks questions and leads the dialogue, the knowledge/contribution comes from the guests
so, I assume you’ve listened through the 2h30 to form yourself a valid opinion or are you going with the predetermined one?
And yet another enlightening post . Dude you’re a complete .......

I've had it and later got the shot/vaccine. What would you like to know?
What we’re your symptoms, how long did they last and did you get the vac thinking it was going to prevent you from getting again?

It started at work with a chest congestion which felt very new. At my then 42 years, I had the thought I needed to get checked for wuhan. It was a very different congestion from normal colds or the flu. I contacted my doctor's office, which was November 2020ish. They had drive up testing where some poor soul in a moon suit swabbed you for the flu and wuhan. The wuhan swab wasn't pleasant. Then you park your car and they walk over and give you the results. Which is f'n insane. If they know you have this "super infective" nonsense which there is no built in immunity why don't they just text you or call you and say you're positive? IDK. Whatever. Why make moon suit girl tap on your window? It was stupid AF.
I had called my fiancé, who I live with, right after I tested positive. We decided that if it was as contagious as they said, we shouldn't bother with countering it and just embrace it since we are both relatively young and healthy. She was already working from home anyway. She never got it, despite being tested twice including for antibodies. But, the dude I was at work with for one day tested positive. I have a pet theory that its wildly infective but in a very narrow window. I was on vacation, went back to work for one day and tested positive the next evening.
I tested positive on 11/19/20 and was 48 hours (or whatever) symptom free by 12/1/20, which is the measure by which you can return to work after testing positive.
The most telling symptoms were the body aches. I can only equate it to the time I got rear ended on a CBR 600 while stopped at a red light. The next morning after the accident I woke up super sore all over. Wuhan was exactly like that. Its the immune response which causes the soreness. Its that same immune response which causes some people's lungs to go haywire, the ground glass thing on x-rays. Chills too, but never really a fever. I was never at the temp which was suppose to be a wuhan red flag.
The best thing was a weighted blanket. I slept a lot. The no taste and smell thing too. One day I was making beef stew. Its an oven stew with red wine and all the works. The whole house smells like stew for a week. When I was cutting the onions, I was thinking my fiancé bought some .... onions because I couldn't smell them. I couldn't smell or taste anything, but its super gradual, enough that you don't really notice it. If I ate a piece of chocolate or salami, I could identify that it was sweet or salty, but that's it. It took a while for it to return to normal, but onions still have a slightly off odor. Not bad, just not what they were or maybe better stated as something new.
Of course I recovered, like most people do. I wasn't going to get the shot, but I was talking with my buddy at work whom I wuhan'd, and his doctor told him to wait 90 days from the succession of symptoms to get the shot, but don't loose the opportunity.
My fiancé has to get the flu shot as a condition of employment since she works in medical research. Obviously, the wuhan shot was no different. I made a judgement call that if she had a vaccine card and given the way things were going government wise, I didn't want there to be a hinderance to travel or the like if I didn't have the same vaccine card. I mean, I pickle my liver with bourbon all the time what would 5cc of whatever really hurt?
I didn't think the shot would prevent me from getting it again, since I think its close to a flu shot than a polio vaccine, but it would run its course much shorter.
A few weeks back I had what I would describe as a cold but with slight body aches. It made me thing it was maybe wuhan delta, since that .... was in the news, but it past relatively quickly.
ETA: I'm not a mask guy. If a businesses I go to asks people to wear them, I would do so. On their property, I respect what they say, same as what I would expect for someone on my property. But, the gym I go to has two locations very close to me but in separate counties. One has a mask mandate, the other does not. I go to the one which doesn't.

Outstanding synopsis and glad you came out relatively unscathed. Thanks for sharing the data. I’m interested in the efficacy of the vac in mitigating future infections and if you are infected as a vac positive is it just as easy to transmit it to another person as an un-vac.
Those dynamics ultimately show if the vac does anything it’s supposed to do. Unfortunately, the devil is in the details and the details that don’t fit the profit narrative are usually missing.
we were all told “get the vac so we can all get back to normal” now we’re back to mask mandates and record number of vac positive infections and reinfections. If a vac positive person can just as easily spread the virus as a vac negative person and vac positive people can get the virus as we now know they can, what’s the point. Thanks again

Most ironic thing I’ve read in months. You’re fervently endorsing the position of dumbfuckery and mass delusion. Lol

My fiancé's aunt and uncle who are very Jesus and anti-whuan-vax, came in town recently. I told them without a doubt, you are going to get it...Eventually.
Make a play and hedge your bet or don't. But, you are going to get it at some point. The vast majority of people will recover but there are those who will have complications, and a percentage of those people's complications will prove fatal.
Side note, the aunt and uncle aforementioned are SUPER Jesus. Hand holding and praying over meals. The fiancé's daughter caught a stomach bug which was intense vomiting for 24 hours. Guess who held her hand for prayer and vomited on the side of a state highway...this guy.
Everyone reading this, you WILL get wuhan eventually. You will probably recover fine. You may spread it to someone who may not. Which is the point of the mitigation. My beef is the mitigation didn't go far enough to be actually effective and then it was weaponized politically.

Im crystal clear where I stand and I could care less what your position is. I'm sticking with science and doing my best not to spread it to someone who may not be as lucky as me.
it's obviously a massive culture war issue in the US, I'm glad we don't have the same degree of problems

Hey Endo, if you ever come down here its got some great scenery and good roads, in fact a plate of spaghetti has more straights than we do. Unfortunately this covid .... is going to make travel a real problem for a few years, I cant see it ironing out until end of 22 at the earliest.

Ol' Phil was a very naughty boy a few years ago;
In Tauranga District Court today, Rudd received the sentence having already admitted to charges of threatening to kill an employee, and for methamphetamine and cannabis found in his home during a police raid last year.The 61-year-old appeared tired and expressionless as he stood in the dock while Judge Ingram delivered the sentence, after refusing an application for a discharge without conviction. In ordering Rudd stay confined to his Harbour Drive, Tauranga, home, Judge Ingram also banned him from taking any drugs not prescribed to him.
The drummer angrily refused to comment as he left the court, smoking a cigarette and telling one member of the press "to get a ....... job pal, get a real job".
