i'm at day eight of being infected with the delta variant. just got back from the hospital getting a hydroxychloroquine IV. i was fully vaccinated and had covid previously but that did not stop this mutation at all. So everyone please be careful.

Thank you for sharing that information. Caution is definitely in order.
Tenant has it. Her husband said he would have rent the 1st in an envelope in the door when I show up.
I'm not at all sure what we can do. Get vaccinated? Everyone I know who's died of the chinavirus has been vaccinated. Half the people I know who've become very ill with it have been vaccinated. Masks? Many Doctors admit the masks provide little or no protection. Hydroxy apparently provides some prophylactic benefit, but you'd need a prescription. I guess "being careful" amounts to living in mortal fear of our fellow man and woman. That's a pretty miserable existence. Though I'll admit, it's better than becoming another casualty of Beijing's "plandemic".
Here's what to do. Live your life without anxiety. If it makes you feel better to get vaccinated, then get vaccinated. If you feel some security from wearing a mask, then wear a mask. Just keep living. Getting twisted up in knots about COVID is wasted anxiety.
When it is your time to go, it's your time to go..........none of us can know the manner of our demise.
Of course you can always sequester yourself from any human contact for the for-seeable future..........forever maybe. Might not be too bad a choice. There's always the interweb.
Well said 600.
The fear and anxiety created by the media is worse the the bat flu.
Seems to be all part of a bigger picture. We just ain't see the full movie yet.
The local news harps on the virus for half the program and that probably makes things worse by scareing people.Im sure you older guys remember when the news would report how bad the economy was until it scared people from spending money and the economy did get bad.

Part Two coming to a country near you. soon
well i just you all to understand this disease is real, how you choose to handle it is entirely up to you.
they said the hydroxy was a hoax so now it is good to go?
I haven't had the vaccine. #4 has been staying with me following ACL repair surgery. He hasn't been vaccinated either. He tested positive for Covid on the 16th after having hot/cold flashes without fever, fatigue and a rash on his torso. We suspected he had strep with scarletina. Nope.
On the 21st he tested negative. When he started having symptoms I gave him high dose D3, zinc, vitamin C, elderberry, pseudophedrine, doxycycline, prednisone, doctor prescribed a z-pack. He never developed any respiratory symptoms. At one point he said his nose felt like it does when you get water up your nose when swimming.
I also keep a humidifier and essential oil diffuser with peppermint and eucalyptus going in his room. He drank lots of water and Body Armor (similar to pedialyte for adults).
We treated it proactively which seemed to help. He also sat on the deck in the fresh air/sunshine everyday.
Bottom line is we treated it like we would a cold or the flu. I didn't isolate from him or do anything different than I normally do. Becoming ill with it seems to be a crap shoot. We have no idea where he contacted it. We can only think it was at his physical therapy appointment or ortho follow up appointment.
On a final note, my niece has had it three times with the vaccine and a friend of mine has had it twice without vaccine. I continue to be dumbfounded by this thing.
Get well Varian. 🙏
