@c hris527 , get well and stay well, friend...here's hoping the rest of '22 will improve significantly for you and your family.....
You talk to 10 people that have had COVID and/or have been vaxxed, you'll hear 20 different stories of how they were affected.
I'll be 73 next month and had COVID with pneumonia in Jan. of last year and it was only half as bad as the cold I had right at Christmas last month! I coughed so much and so hard I threw my lower back out!
Given a choice, I'll take the case of COVID that I had any day...but again, for others it's been a much rougher road. I'm looking forward to the day when this crap runs its course and each year it'll be like the flu that we've been around a long, long time and it will be treated and regarded as such.
