Covid: How do you feel? (Part 2)

Yes, hope all suffering keep mild symptoms and recover quickly.

Same from me, hope the ā€˜Rona goes easy on you all.

Itā€™s rife around here again.

Day 1: I think Iā€™m coming down with something
Day 2: I feel a bit off for sure
Day 3: fuck me this is bad
Day 4: can hardly move off the sofa, poor dog isnā€™t getting a walk today
Day 5: wait what, I feel ok, nice walk in the park
Day 6-7: I feel fine, some snot and coughing but meh

Excellent!

Covid has knocked me and the wife for six!
Just like a cold, my arse. One minute hot then freezing, feel like I have a broken rib when I cough, fuzzy head, canā€™t concentrate, no appetite, sore throat, no strength. Took all my energy just to check the horse this morning. I donā€™t like this one bit.:cry:

I went through bouts of uncontrollable shaking from being freezing,then boiling hot minutes later. Luckily only had those symptoms for 24 hours or so.
Hope it moves on quickly

That sounds shit. Fair play for looking after the horse when youā€™re so sick. Hopefully it will pass quickly.

I had forgotten how shit I have felt after every single covid jab. So now I feel shit :roll_eyes:

I feel like refried arse and I think that I just pulled the faintest of lines on a covid test.

Itā€™s not like I have non-changeable, non-refundable flights to Munich on Thursday or anything :neutral_face:

I guess Iā€™ll just have to see how I feel tomorrow and maybe check again.

Gatwick 6:20?

Heathrow ~11am.

I am / was not planning on going to High End. Itā€™s a boyā€™s beer + pork weekend. The dates simply suit my buddy because of the bank holiday on the Thursday.

Although I thought I might drop in to Hi Fi Deluxe if I was at a loose end.

The way Iā€™m feeling right now Iā€™m going to have to just write it off.

GWS.

Iā€™m going out early & coming back that evening. Will try to do both shows though. Looking forward more to a canal boat weekend starting Friday.

FWIW old test strips can give false positives as well as false negatives, so Iā€™d not worry too much - see how symptoms develop + lots of bed rest, lots of fluids, lots of vit cā€¦ You know the drill.


I notice, by-the-bye, that ā€˜Worldometerā€™ has stopped tracking COVID cases since very few countries are reporting them any more, which leaves us with a notional total of >700 million recorded cases (~10% of global population), and >7 million deaths. A lot of people for sure, but also a rather scary (in terms of overpopulation) just ~0.1% of global population.

A shocking 1.2 million of those deaths were in the US, where the evil antivax cunts have the strongest grip, plus of course - Trumpā€¦

I note too that both France and Germany had between ~50% and ~80% more cases than the UK, but between ~50,000 and ~70,000 fewer deaths. Letā€™s never forget that the Tory solution was for us to stand outside our fucking houses and clap the nurses and doctorsā€¦ While they held Parties in Downing Stā€¦

All the numbers are, obviously, going to be significant under-reports, since many countries just ignored or lied about the whole thing, and many more didnā€™t have the resources to monitor and treat, plus deaths amongst the elderly and long-term sick could easily have been misattributed.

Global shitshow, excepting a few nationsā€¦

TBF itā€™s kind of moot whether it is or isnā€™t covid.

If I still feel this rank on Thursday thereā€™s no way Iā€™m travelling internationally.
