Cdc says this may be the most contagious yet. But people still wont care. Literally hear "theyre alway saying that about the newest strain" at work today.

BA.5 omnicron (ninja covid)

not sure if it's the covid i had but it's nasty stuff.
cold symptoms mainly. maybe headaches for some. loss of taste/smell is common. night sweats (all of it is on the mild border).

the covid can evade vaccine but it does protect against serious complications.
was sick for 5 days. day 10 came the loss of taste/smell.

Seems like it's about as severe as omicron? My family and I had omicron at the same time but our symptoms were extremely mild. But also we may have gotten lucky somehow

vaccines don't work against this one. shots do give some protection though.
Hold up so which is it

I think he's trying to say vaccines don't help with reducing the chance of catching it, but do help with how severe it is when you catch it. I'm getting my 4th vac Wednesday to feel some piece of mind

My toddler daughter got covid about a month ago after a trip.

It's was pretty bad. She couldn't breath for a few days and we spent them in a hospital.

Right now I'm so confused ... Cuz now she's sick again and tested positive for covid... But we have not been out with her at all for the last few weeks.

I'm so over this.

I am on the back end of it now. One person came into my office with it, and we all got it. Shut down our department for the week pretty much.

I had these symptoms
Bad sore throat
Chest congestion (breathing issues with this)
Joint and body pain - this was one of the worst parts as it was pretty bad
Nausea
Fever
Bad cough
Breathing issues (asthmatic, so any sort of virus does this to me)

My wife ended up getting it to, even though we were safe. It's incredibly easy to pass on. We also tested several times and only came back positive when we were really deep into the symptoms.

Maybe just in Australia. Which is strange because everyone got their third way after Americans did. Didn't get my booster til February. But anyway yeah we're now eligible for second booster here

So long as people don't care, COVID will perpetually be around. That's how infectious the virus is, in that sense.

Gather around a group of like-minded individuals, a few of them are guaranteed to be infected with the virus and it really shouldn't surprise anyone at this point anymore.

Should they discover quickly how real long term COVID is. That's on them, and that's what they deserve for tempting fate.

Buddy of mine spent two months in the hospital with it and now has long covid stuff going on. He's pretty fat too which doesn't help I'm sure. But scary stuff
