are you still a covirgin?
#11
I've had all 5 shots and got Covid last month. I'm 67 with multiple comorbidities and I had very mild symptoms. Not sure how I'd have made out without the vaccines.

2 Vaccine, 3 Boosters, and getting ready for a fourth Booster, and still Covirgin.
I'm a month away from 79 with heart disease, heart failure, and COPD. The figures that I've run show something less than a 25% chance of survival given my multiple comorbidity and age. Accordingly, I'm still wearing a mask and distancing in all public venues and avoid gatherings entirely including family events. It's been more than two years since we have been inside a restaurant and I have no intent to do so until the coast is clear. If it kills me, it will not be my fault.

No one in my close family (that is still alive ) has gotten COVID, yet. Knock on wood!

haven't had it yet. I did get one vaccine shot, had an awful reaction and reported it to CDC. Had problems for months, had to see a physician and was advised not to get another vaccine. A CDC investigator called me, asked a boatload of questions and she also recommended I not get another vaccine. I have no idea how much immunity I may have so I wear a mask anytime I go out into public places. I do permit people to visit my home but I don't hug or get overly close to them.

I got Covid very early on from frequent trips to Italy as the outbreak began. Flight crews were exempt from nearly all restrictions. Essential tier 1 occupation. My entire family got it. I have had it 3 additional times. Mild symptoms all. Got the double Moderna, not for preventing anything but because personal travel to Europe required it. Knowing what I know now, if travel to Europe was not in the mix, I would not have bothered with any vaccine. After 4 infections, who cares? The side effects, especially the CDC reported cardiac issues, are a real concern for me.
Did not see the point in a booster. Doesn't even have any efficacy for current variants.
