It still sort of boggles my mind how fast everyone opened up in person dining. Like the absolutely worst case environment! Can't mask while eating, frequently some alcohol involved, frequently loud so you need to talk loudly, old buildings with shitty circulation... so dumb.

Thought I'd put some numbers to my wife's blood count.
One day before her vaccine
WBC 3.7
Platelets 136
RBC 3.65
After her vaccine
WBC +1 day 6.9 +8 days 6.2 +15 days 5.0
Platelets +1 day 100 +8 days 112 +15 days 154
RBC +1 day 3.69 +8 days 3.73 +15 days 3.92
WBC count has not been over 6.1 in the last 5 years, so the vaccine really made it work(a good thing)
PLA count is now high for my wife but this too is a good thing.
RBC 3.55 to 3.68 is normal for my wife and the highest its been in the last two years was 4.05. So with it at 3.92 and hopefully still climbing is also a good thing.
Was it the vaccine? With a test subject of one you can't make a informed judgment. But we do like the way her blood numbers changed after her vaccine.
Now we get to see what they will be after her 2nd shot.

My buddy ended up passing away on Monday. They said he just wasn't going to be able to survive off the ventilator. 50 years old leaves behind a wife 5 kids and 2 grandkids. Their lives all changed in less than 2 months time.

My buddy got diagnosed with Covid last week. He thought he just had a cold then got a covid test and came up positive. He felt a little better at one point then went downhill fast. He is in the hospital on a ventilator now. He was a heathy guy too, no serious medical issues before this. Can't believe how fast it all happened.
SOOOOO sorry to hear of your buddies passing
