Thanks.Wishing you a speedy recovery!
My wife has had it worse, she's been in bed since Sunday, and she's triple jabbed!!
Thanks.Wishing you a speedy recovery!
Hope you all feel better soon.Tested positive Monday, been feeling absolutely awful since Monday morning.
My legs have never felt as painful as they do at the moment.
I'm double jabbed as well, would hate to know how I'd have felt without a vaccine.
Whole household has been laid low since last week.

She’s the second person I’ve heard about who’s got covid after being boosted. How long after the booster did she get sick?Thanks.

Get well soon @Champ I'm allowed out of isolation tomorrow and not feeling anywhere near as fatigued as even 2 days ago so hopefully when it starts improving for you all it will be quick.She’s the second person I’ve heard about who’s got covid after being boosted. How long after the booster did she get sick?
A good friend of mine who’s an obstetrician got sick the day after her booster. Which is shitty luck as it’s too soon for the booster to kick in.
On the plus side, I know loads of double vaccinated people who’ve got covid and almost all of them have felt like absolute shit but none of them have ended up in hospital. Which is the main thing.
You can still get it after the booster - it isn't 100% effective but it greatly reduces the chance of it developing into serious illness.She’s the second person I’ve heard about who’s got covid after being boosted. How long after the booster did she get sick?

were you vaccinated?Are there any tests you can do to check if you've had Covid?
About a couple of months ago, I was sick for about 5-6 days:
But I had no cough or sore throat, so just wondering if I picked up something else.
- Exhaustion
- Diarrhea
- Fever
- Headaches
There's actually a quirk in the data that suggests that more people do test positive the day after a booster.She’s the second person I’ve heard about who’s got covid after being boosted. How long after the booster did she get sick?

That’s fascinating. N=1 but my friend felt like shit the day following the vaccine and assumed that was the cause. It was only two days later as she felt worse and worse, then lost her smell/taste that she went for a test.There's actually a quirk in the data that suggests that more people do test positive the day after a booster.
I've seen various suggestions from, "people tend not to notice symptoms" on the day or so prior to booster" because of the expectation/stress associated with getting it. To the more direct one that you feel a bit wobbly the following day due to the vaccine kicking in, and that may compound any nascent symptoms so you do get tested. Dunno' really, but you can see the down blip in the data.
Single J&J. Just had my booster nowwere you vaccinated?
Except for diarrhea, those were my exact symptoms, when I had Covid. Lasted 2-3 days. However, what really made it obvious was the total loss of my sense of taste and smell.Are there any tests you can do to check if you've had Covid?

That is the kicker for me, I can put up with feeling like crap for a few days/week, but hospitalisation is not an option.She’s the second person I’ve heard about who’s got covid after being boosted. How long after the booster did she get sick?

I wouldn't know how to test it then. You'll have antibodies regardless.Single J&J. Just had my booster now
J&J, AZ, Pfizer etc all produce antibodies to the spike bit of the virus. Infection shows as spike antibodies + antibodies to some other proteins. Some antibody tests can tell you which ones you've got, and even how many of them. I'm not sure how available they are though or what they'd cost if you were getting it done privately.I wouldn't know how to test it then. You'll have antibodies regardless.

Having poo poo’d your weather theory yesterday (because Ireland’s having a mild autumn) it’s hard to ignore what the only countries swerving this spike (so far!) Spain, Italy, Portugal, Greece have in common.Looks like it's graphs day today.
Cases rising fast in parts of Europe. More disconcertingly it's almost as if they're rising in sync between some countries.
I don't know if that's a weather effect or if they all changed rules at the same time, but it's a sudden rapid jump - comparable perhaps to what was seen in Ireland? Countries are now looking at changing rules again. It's going to be a bumpy ride.
Some of the details are in the thread below. The first set of graphs show daily average based on the past 7 days - he's taking about the most recent date as the one that's above past pandemic levels.

nice to know, thanks!

Yes.As someone who completely stopped paying attention to all this depressing shit once everyone was double jabbed, are the deaths/ICU admittance numbers going up along with infection numbers? I'm trying to understand why Ireland is going back into lockdown.
In the UK, case rates have been high for weeks and hospital admissions and deaths have tracked them, but the vaccines have kept them below the levels we had when we had similar numbers of cases before:As someone who completely stopped paying attention to all this depressing shit once everyone was double jabbed, are the deaths/ICU admittance numbers going up along with infection numbers?

Even if he is being careful, kids are going to school, visitors, shopping etc. not hard to catch it this time of year. Anyone unvaxxed now out of choice is playing Russian rouletteBoss is in hospital with covid. Didn't get jabbed. Not really sure why, because he's not been anti anything really. Very considerate with WFH, following the rules etc.
But yeah, get vaccines people!
Has the UK escaped because of being further ahead with its vaccine programme?Fecking grim watching this again. I knew Covid wasn't going anywhere soon but thought we were done with lockdowns at least.
That, and a higher threshold for avoidable deaths, and because more people got infected in the UK so more natural immunity. Not much of an escape really, they just had a different starting position once vaccines were ready. A much worse one than most countries, undoubtedly.Has the UK escaped because of being further ahead with its vaccine programme?
That's it, think it was mainly vaccine anxiety rather than anti-vax combined with that "I'm being careful" mentality. But as it stands with the spread of covid there's only so safe you can be.Even if he is being careful, kids are going to school, visitors, shopping etc. not hard to catch it this time of year.

If anything, the early start to the UK vaccine programme should have made you more vulnerable to this current surge. Which is largely driven by the vaccine efficacy waning over time.Has the UK escaped because of being further ahead with its vaccine programme?
Do you have a good source on this? Genuinely interested, as it seems like the testing and reporting strategies are very different (at least for Denmark and Sweden, I don't know much about what the Noggies are doing).On a side note, it’s interesting to see that Sweden doesn’t seem to be affected by the wave nearly as badly as Denmark or Norway.
