Thanks. I can go to sleep now with this update.

:-X

I mean is it really newsworthy that a person 99 out of 100 people couldn’t pick out of a lineup is on the mend from COVID? If he was about to die — gotcha. But this is three weeks old news that is not interesting.

Sorry to upset Julian, it was new to me news. And it's okay news? And this is the thread for this type of news? 

it's really not off-brand for the thread

Im sorry: y’all find it interesting to hear about every never-was who ever had COVID with no long-term effects, post-facto? What does that say about you, person making this argument?

Like me . . . Julian's pronoun is, CUNT

John, this is tabloidism; not news nor informative reporting. You are bright enough to see that.

I really, just wanted to say cunt.

Plus, everyone knows that famous people are important.

Look at that stupid fucking dropping like flies thread.

IMPORTANT, julian, IMPORTANT

Does the word "comorbidities" make anyone else chuckle inside a little?  Yes…I said chuckle.

Again anecdotal, but the third Moderna shot was like running face first into a brick wall for both my wife and I and we both had had the most minor of side effects from Doses 1 and 2 (and my extraneous J&J).

Wonder if this was because your antibodies were pretty much still intact from your first three shots? At this point of course I'm talking out of my ass.

Man, I’d only be talking out my ass on that. Let me try to give some details with as little ass talk as possible: my wife did not get a publicity-induced shot of J+J and she was solidly 8+ months out from her second dose. I have to believe — as a person who says “trust scientists” — that there is some truth to waning immunity. Her reaction to moderna #3 has to mean something. I can’t say if it’s a bug or a feature.

That said, I also agree with you that I was not as thirsty to get shot 4 as I was shot one. I’ll probably be fine if I contract COVID. My wife will too, from a look at the comorbidities . That said I think people need to what their personal goal is. From a public health standpoint, it makes no difference socially if I get COVID and get don’t get sick enough that I take up a hospital bed and require interventions.

But I personally would prefer not to get COVID. I’d prefer not to get COVID and not get sick but potentially long term effects. I’d prefer to never contract COVID. I don’t think that’s a life or death difference at this point for me. But it’s my preference. Hence, I’ll get a third/fourth shot. Just me.

If you’ve got two shots in your arm, I’m not going to give you grief for not getting a booster as quick as I do absent new info that’s unarguable coming out.

"Never-Was"? HOW DARE YOU.

Was browsing Staples.com and came across this. Sorta want it on a shirt.

here's another entry in the "we already knew this, and we're too burnt out to be outraged" dept.:

Election ‘distracted’ Trump team from pandemic response, Birx tells Congress, saying more than 130,000 people died unnecessarily

as one person twote, "Moral of story: Don't elect malignant narcissists and sycophantic sociopaths to government"

Them, are big words . . . and they frighten people.

We all know that the Washington State football coach is a stupid idiot but the big takeaway here is that social media is rotting so many people's brains at an alarmingly high rate.

Bryan Adams too

My wife had J&J and just got Moderna booster.  No major side effects other than being a little tired.

My partner got a booster last week and seems extra bitchy…is this a side effect?

My wife was very bitchy for about 24 hours. We had no issues with any earlier doses but the third Moderna shots absolutely knocked both of us on our ass for a day each (we did them two weeks apart just in case).

Be honest.  If you had you as a partner, wouldn't you be bitchy?

For sure.
