Howard, I and many others could say the same about those of you who feel differently about COVID, the vaccines and what are and aren't scientific facts. There's a slim chance that time will reveal who is correct. It is pointless to try to convince people of something they do not believe to be true in situations like this because there is little chance that would ever happen.
I am vaccinated and I wear a mask when and where appropriate. IMO, my chances of getting seriously ill from COVID are less than it is for those of you who are not vaccinated and who choose not to wear a mask. I have no doubt that you disagree with me on this. Never-the-less, I wish you good health happiness and eventual peace of mind.
Even vaccinated people should stay vigilant, said Dr. Gaby Sauza, 30, of Seattle, who was inoculated over the winter but tested positive for COVID-19 along with other guests days after an Aug. 14 Vermont wedding, even though the festivities were mostly outdoors and those attending had to submit photos of their vaccination cards.
“In retrospect, absolutely, I do wish
I had worn a mask,” she said.
Sauza, a resident in pediatrics, will miss two weeks of hospital work and has wrestled with
guilt over burdening her colleagues. She credits the vaccine with keeping her infection manageable, though she suffered several days of body aches, fevers, night sweats, fatigue, coughing and chest pain.
Fully vaccinated but had to go into quarantine, so what are Howard and you talking about?
Raven had similar symptoms and a quarantine without a unvax. Assume both are healthy with nothing underlying conditions. Serum test/physical/history could have answered a lot of questions.
Outcome: Raven antibody levels are pretty much the same months later. Sauza is in line for her 3rd shot. And from what I hearing #4 pay-per-shot is on the way.
Good Doc hasn't had another reinfection and still hasn't had one shot, or has he but his natural immune system has no problem identifying a poly-colony of viroids and reacting on it spontaneously?
