I am “don’t vax if you don’t want to”. Got vax with booster and very much a libertarian type. Got Covid, starting to feel a bit better at the, THREE MONTH MARK. Has disabled me pretty bad, wouldn’t be able to work if I didn’t have an accommodating job just from the mental fog. Enjoy this datapoint. I am still against any forced restrictions.

Another data point. I have “virus induced asthma”. Even a cold can cause my body to go into severe over reaction mode. It’s treated by psuedophredrine and asthma medicine.

Normally, my asthma doesn’t bother me. I did all of the safety protocols before vaccines were introduced and I got them as soon as I could.

But after that, we have been living life normally. I am considerate of other people and get tested regularly before I travel for business or to see my parents.

We went on cruise last year. I got Covid. I didn’t realize I had it until the test came back. I did my normal cold regiment - psuedophredrine and asthma meds[1]. I coughed like crazy for a couple of days, self isolated and by the end of the next week, I was back to exercising - at home in my home gym.

[1] this is the recommended treatment for asthma sufferers. But

This is a common experience, it seems.
