This flu has been one of the worst I’ve ever experienced. Fever that lasted five days, and secretions that I needed to clear several times per day almost one month after I was over the infection.

I’ve heard from a few people who were vaccinated but didn’t have an easy go of it.

Yes. I know of two people who had breakthrough infections. I had a mild breakthrough myself. Got the brain fog and fatigue but was thankfully spared the fever, cough, and sore throat.
Did you have COVID or another respiratory disease before?
I got COVID at the height of the pandemic. It wasn't great either. But I had no lingering symptoms from it back then.
