    That’s how I fought off covid the 3 times it jumped me. And no I am not antivax just never managed to make time for it and since it was broadcast as not stopping the infection I didn’t feel the urgency. Worst covid did was a medium flu like setup so just rode it out

      You fought off covid by being exposed to a weakened form of it? Did you get the Novavax shot? Or has the brain fog persisted and you’re just a little bit confused

        I got no shot, no antibiotics, nor any palliative attention from anyone. Just hunkered down at home and kept hydrated.

          No surprises there, antibiotics do horse-shit against viruses and if you had gotten palliative care you wouldn’t be writing comments any more.

          That’s great for you. My grandfather died from it. And he hadn’t died from the common cold or a flu.

            My mom died of it too back in '21. She had copd and kidney and heart issues as well, so it was not unexpected

              Not my grandfather. He had come through colds, several cases of flu and even pneumonia. COVID got him.

          Antibiotics don’t do shit for viruses and shouldn’t be taken for cold, flu or covid unless you have underlying conditions that make you susceptible to a bacterial infection forming.
