A friend of mine felt sick and tested positive for Covid

He took the Joe Rogan Ivermectin zinc treatment.

One day later he was fine.

I learned something very interesting during my COVID experience.
Tested positive at UC after 3-days of troubled breathing.
My doc put me on anti-viral as I qualified under guidelines.
Finished the 5 day anti-viral course and felt good.
Then a day later 02 sats back down and the hack back.
Doc wanted to make sure no pneumonia so ordered x-rays. Negative.
Apparently after the anti-viral course you can develop rebound COVID
The virus decides to have one last "party" as it's getting close to closing time.
You're also considered at day one of quarantine once they determine rebound.
Now on day 5 of second quarantine and day 14 since first sign of symptoms.

So should I have opted for the anti-viral course and the potential for rebound, never told of this possibility, or should I have just rode it out and been out of this a week ago. I guess I'll never know it the anti-viral helped or not. Doc thinks it did.

Super liberal family member recently had a soar throat and a mild cough. Told her "you probably have COVID its not a big deal". She scoffed and was offended how dare I accuse her of having Covid! Shes vaccinated and boosted!!11!

Day later we get a long winded text message she tested positive. No joke got novel of a text from her she sent to everyone at the family gathering how sorry she was and she feels completely awful that she would put everyones lives in danger. Thank god for the vaccine of course, because otherwise she feels like she would probably be in the hospital fighting for her life.

What I took away from all of this is mental illness is real.

Of note, my friend was unvaxxed

Not all anti vitals are equal.

IVM for the win

Half a Gatorade does the trick too unless you are fat or a hypochondriac.

I'm a germaphobe and I knew this was Chinese/Dimocrat/Rino/globalist horseshit in 2/2020. If you're semi healthy and under 60 nothing lasting will happen

Sounds like Paxlovid (nirmatrelvir/ritonavir)

I can’t remember the last time I washed my hands. Maybe 20 years ago, maybe longer.

Literally had a sore throat and my eyes hurt for one day. Then nothing until three days later I lost my taste and smell for about a week, with no other symptoms. Fine after that, and I was unvaxxed.

Or you have asthma that requires daily maintenance. Wife and daughter, 2 day thing then over. Daughter not vaxxed, wife was forced to or faced termination. Her body, her choice. So I hear. She had to risk blood clots but at least she can still get an abortion in WA. Tradeoffs.

Asthma is a borderline hypochondriac disorder.

Thought about it again. It’s a full on hypochondriac disorder. Everyone I know that has it has other bullshit allergies and other Epstein barr like disorders.

No allergies. In fact I had no issues until my late 30's, then I couldn't play pickup BB outdoors w/o lungs going full burn. It's only a disease. Just what I'm hearing.

Good to know that 5K people die each year because "hypochondriac" disorder got them. Someone should have told Rashidi Wheeler that it was all in his head when he dropped dead on the Northwestern practice field. Shake it off kid.

Uh no, I have had it since I was 2 months old... I've been in the hospital many times for it luckily not admitted, but they have better medication that works well. When I have a cold it can flare up really bad. I love playing hockey because I can bust arse for a min and take a break and stop wheezing and when doing a 5k I have to ralk... run and walk to catch my breath. F u for saying its fake... I hope you have it one day you can't breathe and then you will realize how wrong you are.... it isn't fun and definitely not fake.

I was at a dance in 6th grade, had an attack and didn't have my medication with me, wanted to be cool lol.... well I turned blue and had to be rushed to the hospital... but yeah I faked it. Kept my Aero Chamber and Albuterol in my pocket 247 since then.
