Mili you have seriously embarrassed yourself in this thread. Go back and look at my posts in this thread, I am not exactly a scared liberal Karen screaming at people to wear a mask. I in fact do not think masks are doing much if any and gave some reasons why way back. I have not been a proponent of shutting the world down.

But to act like this is similar to the flu is beyond asinine at this point. I have had it. My entire family had it. My mother in law is coming home today from her third trip to the hospital and has been close to dying. I personally know 8 people that have died from Covid. It is not like the flu. One of my good friends that is an Opthamologist, 54 years old, 175 lbs and in great shape, works out religiously, spent six days in the hospital with it because his SpO2 dropped to 85. My SpO2 dropped to 87 and I made a trip to the ER. I am 48 years old and in good shape. It has hit our area hard and I have no less than 15 buddies that have had it and nearly all of us were down for ten days. And I mean down. All of us are under 60.

My 19 year old son didn't have many symptoms, mostly like a head cold for three days. He is a Type 1 diabetic. My 23 year old daughter was hacking her head off and felt miserable for ten days. My 50 year wife was in bed for two days and then felt better fairly quick. It hit me the hardest and I wound up on a mix of steriods, antibiotics, inhalers, and vitamins. My 81 year mother in law is F up big time right now with double pneumonia, blood clots, an new arrhythmia she didn't have before, among other issues.

Experts recommend people that have had Covid still need the vaccine. I guess you know better? Maybe you can point to data that suggests people do not need the vaccine that have been positive?

I do not want to wish this stuff on anyone, but at this point it may be good for you to not get the vaccine and experience it yourself.

My entire family will get the vaccine. My daughter that is in a health related graduate school already had her first dose. I work in healthcare. I do not want to bring it back to my 81 year old MIL because she could die. I will be responsible. But you keep on being Milli.

Why? You've already had Covid...

from the extensive article I posted on the last page

https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.ho...t-texas-A-M-ben-neuman-lisa-gray-15870912.php
Several people are asking whether you should get the vaccine if you’ve already had COVID-19.

Yes. Definitely.

Why? What happens in your body if you’ve already had COVID-19 but then get the vaccine?

We put the vaccine into an arm muscle because we know that buried in each of your tissues, there are little sentinels. Something like one out of every 15 cells in the body is a white blood cell of some kind — part of that immune system family. They’re in your muscles; they’re circulating in your blood; they’re in your organs all over the place.

What we want to hit is called a “dendritic cell.” If we manage to inject one of those with either a bit of protein or a bit of messenger RNA that’ll make a protein, the cell will make a little bit of the protein, harvest it, cut it into little pieces, learn how to recognize it, and go show it to the rest of your immune system. Eventually it’s going to find some sort of cell able to recognize this. Then it gives it a little reward, kind of like a piece of candy — but, you know, in immunological terms (laughs).

The dendritic cell just keeps showing this little piece of the virus until it’s got a whole horde of cells that are ready to go out and hunt down just this one thing. It can’t react to anything else. They’re totally focused on COVID. You’re building up that little army.

From about two weeks after the first dose of vaccine with either of the mRNA vaccines — the Pfizer or the Moderna — it looks as though you have enough immunity to get at least short-term protection

Instant View: J&J COVID-19 vaccine is 66% effective globally

Johnson & Johnson said its single-dose vaccine was 72% effective in preventing COVID-19 in the United States but a lower rate of 66% was observed globally in the large trial conducted across three continents and against multiple variants.

My personal plan for staying alive and out of the hospital if I get C19 is to down some fluvoxamine, a cheap generic anti-depressant approved a very long time ago that has ironic side effects of being just the anti inflammatory needed to fight the cytokine storm. It is supported by good results in a small phase 2 study and good results in an observational study (e.g. a single doctor offering it to all his patients who got C19). A larger phase 3 study is in progress, which may confirm the good results. This press release has all the links to the above
https://www.prnewswire.com/news-rel...t-california-horseracing-track-301209454.html

Actually, there is one more piece of confirmatory evidence. I don't have the reference on the tip of my fingers, but someone rifled through all the drugs people were on when they came into the hospital, and then sorted through the drugs people were taking that had better outcomes. In general, this sort of anti-depressant was on the top of the list. If I were king or a day, I would have the large hospitals say what percent of patients in their affiliated doctor's network are taking fluvoxamine, and then ask what percent of the folks in your hospital were taking fluvoxamine and what percent died.

There hasn't been much press on this, so I am passing along this tip, though I am not a doctor and am only suggesting that you may wish to consider asking your doctor about this. You may or may not include this as part of your personal plan for living until 2022.

You may wish to stockpile this medicine before the hoarders start hoarding?

Actually, it could be an interesting experience to consume a bunch of anti-depressant? I expect that I would be so chilled out that I wouldn't bother to show up for work? Don't worry be happy! Please, yes, fire me.

Do you know anything about how this works? I know that things like serotonin uptake inhibitors can cause people headaches. FWIW.

How do you get a script for this? It’s not an over the counter med.

Conclusions:
In this preliminary study of adult outpatients with symptomatic COVID-19, patients treated with fluvoxamine, compared with placebo, had a lower likelihood of clinical deterioration over 15 days. However, the study is limited by a small sample size and short follow-up duration, and determination of clinical efficacy would require larger randomized trials with more definitive outcome measures.
