<yawn> Just tested positive for COVID </yawn>

[Jayhawker Soule]

I have COPD. It's unpleasant but manageable, It's also good reason to be particularly concerned about COVID-19 and the anti-science wingnuts that persist in giving it aid and comfort.

Fortunately, I'm fully vaccinated and have every reason to expect little more than flue symptom. In fact, the main outcome may be marginally increased immunity. Science wins ... again.

I'm not entirely sure about the science behind it, I just know the rumors. I heard that COVID does more damage to the immune system than it does to strengthen it? Is that true?

I've had COVID last year before I was vaccinated and it felt like less than a flu. I'm pretty sure I have it again right now because people at my job were sick (and we all have to get tested on Wednesday), and I'm a little lazier than I usually am and I have a slight runny/cloggy nose and a little scratchiness in the throat. But again, barely noticeable things.

I hope you are well soon.

If you're vaxxed and boosted there's every chance you'll be fine.

My other half works in care, and where people were dying a couple of years ago now they're getting sniffles.

My son had covid last month. He was given the medication, forgot what is called, immediately and after a few weeks he was fine. What enraged him was he caught it from a fellow in the office who was vaccinated, came to work sick and spread it. My son is a non-vaccinator, is tested every week according to city policy and always wears a mask. Those of us who are vaccinated must remember that while we may think we're safe, still may spread it.

You got covid too? That sucks. I have it and so does another resident here in the group home. We at the group home have to be quarantined until we get retested again on Friday.

 

[England my lionheart]

Get well soon,your vaxxed so you’ll be fine,the worst part is boredom from isolating.

I've had it twice but also am fully vaxed and had minor symptoms, so I hope you fell better soon.

It seems to have made you very tired.

This made me laugh, but I'm afraid of the laughing emoji so I'm just going to say it.

Delighted that you are doing well, delighted that you were vaccinated, and hope even your mild symptoms are gone soon.

In your case, my friend, perhaps “flue” symptom may be more accurate than “flu”!

Take care of yourself. We haven’t even begun to think about training a new Jewish curmudgeon so we’re counting on you to stick around for another couple of decades.

I wish you good health or a speedy recovery!

I was asymptomatic when I was SARS-CoV2 infected in April 2020, and also when I was infected by the Omicron variant in December 2021. I wish you good health also.

 

[Debater Slayer]

Wishing you a smooth and swift recovery, my friend. Take care.

170 Years of Earth Surface Temperature Data Show No Evidence of Significant Warming – Watts Up With That?

I am always fascinate, @KenS, by people who seek to find objections to whatever the current science may seem to be showing (or not, because I'm aware that humans aren't perfect, and we can get it wrong).

But what interests me, at the same time, is that those same people refuse to talk about the very real climate aberrations that we are actually experiencing. And they are happening -- talk to thirsty Californians, if you'd like.

Or, maybe, try a Google search like "what are the real signs of climate change?" And then actually READ some of them.

You might actually be better off using an actual scientific source. Check out the rest of the website you posted and you'll see what I mean.
