Wahoo - Wuhan

[PegLeg45]

One son's a first responder and has had the Wuhan flim-flam five times that he knows of for certain (some cases are milder and might not flare). Wife and I celebrated New Year's Eve and following week with it (son and his lady friend had it again too).
I think the wife had one of the early cases of it all the way back in February 2020 before the big blow-up and then we had it when the "Delta" variant was out in August 2021.

When I had it in 2021 it was the first time I'd been sick enough to go to a doctor in 20+ years. All my doctors visits leading up to that were related to continuing treatment for my motorcycle accident and routing check-ups.

Did you guys get the jab?

Did you guys get the jab?

Three years back.  Had a cold a few years ago, never tested myself.

Did you guys get the jab?

I did after my doctor told me too. I said I would and kept my word. Then I got a booster and that's it. I'm not going to keep getting it every year. I didn't get a flu shot this season but have been for decades. I used to get sick all the time before I started getting flu shots, then quit catching everything that was going around. I've barely left the house for months or I probably would have caught something this time too.

I got the jab due to the recommendations of my wife's health specialists. Have still had the vid three times. The specialists of since changed their advise on the program and no longer advise we get them. One has told her not to.

Nice thing about the bat bug is that it is turning to what I have always thought it would: Just another annual flu bug. First time through it was new, and nobody had any immunities. We got sick, very sick in some cases, and the weak and ill died off. Each passing time is less and less due to immunities. However, just like all other diseases, it still takes out the weak that we have protected from other natural deaths.

Wuhu flu is going to be here forever, just like the flu. And it will keep changing, just like the flu. And when the people who make the vaccines want to know what's coming next, they'll look at China, just like the flu.

Am I the only one here who has not had the Wuhan??? From 2020 through 2023, I haven't even been sick, not a cold, nothing.

My wife caught the Wuhan on our return from the UK, and as we were together all of the time, I was surprised not to get it. She was down for 4-5 days, different symptoms each day, and then it was gone.

This year, she got a cold after Christmas, and that I did get, albeit mildly. We left for Hawaii on Jan 5, and I was not feeling well. Slept most of the day on Jan 6, and I have been fine ever since.

I credit God's grace as we have been and are being used by Him greatly.

I also picked up on the Israeli report in early 2021 that a vitamin cocktail seems to be effective against the Wuhan. Since I discovered Costco carries that cocktail, I have been taking it 2x a day for 2+ years. The mix is Vit A, C, D, zinc and something else, Costco calls it Super C.

I caught it after Christmas 2020.  I refused the jab...which makes more and more sense as more reports come out over time.  There was a dump of CDC emails proving they knew about the jab causing heart problems but they did not want "..to alarm the public."

Clearly it appears to by CYA and it could be they did not want to jeopardize a juicy drug company job after government retirement.  They should be tried for manslaughter for withholding information.

I guess you are Path.   We got the initial jab a booster, but that was before my infarction occurred.  My GP quit recommending after that.  I get the general flue shot and the pneumonia shot each year at Miss Kitty's insistence.  I knew it was a matter of time, just hoping the severity and length could be shortened.

I have taken overdose of C and D for decades.  I also use Nasacort nasal spray every day.  Initially it was to see if it could clear a eustachian tube blockage.  It did so much more that in the almost 15 years I've been using it this is only the 2nd or 3rd virus to manifest itself.  And remember Miss Kitty and I worked around elementary students during that time.  I think Nasacort, by keeping my airways open make it difficult for viruses to breed.  Improving every day.  Really wish the ears would unstop.

Sometimes I have to use saline nose spray several times during the day to get my eustachian tubes cleared.  Once they start to plug up I generally have an ear infection on the way if they don't clear.  I keep the saline spray around at all times to interdict a larger problem.
