Interesting for sure. I know people who have not had it - that they know of anyway.

My DIL has not had it. She's an ER nurse and she's not vaccinated.

I thought we were all pretty certain that everyone has had it 4 or 5 times? ;)

Seriously, though, by the end of this year, everyone might have had it 4 or 5 times...

If I had it, I didn't notice.  I never tested positive, my wife did and we were in close proximity.

I don't want it, but at the moment I'm not doing anything to avoid it.

Well, I started washing my hands after returning home as a practice.

if the numbers spike up here locally I'll schedule a booster

and possibly put on a mask occasionally

The Mrs. and I are waiting on the second booster until A) after the time from last infection runs off, and B) the boosters reflect the B.whatever variants that seem to be changing more often than I change socks.

I "think" the current booster does limit how serious any infection would be even if it is limited in preventing it.

I do think a modified vaccine would be a good thing, but I also think the virus is going to find a way around it quickly rendering it's prevention aspect minimal.  As people get effective vaccines against Variant X, it's going to die out, but not before Variant Y surfaces somewhere.

as long as it stays weak we can function without lockdowns

hospitalizations remain very low and intensive care even lower

Yeah, so long as it stays weak, it's a good thing, I think, relative to what could be.  Herd immunity perhaps, or resistance.  It becomes a cold, hopefully without longer term ramifications.  My wife would not have known she had it had she not been tested, it was a surprise.

She's fine now.

Yup same here.

I have no interest getting stuck with the same ol' same ol' that's not stopping the spread anyway.  I'm not overly worried about getting sick from it, I've already done that, and it was like seasonal allergies but lasted much less time.

It's possible that stronger and more dangerous variants will come along, but in general that's not the way viruses work.

Both this Tom Elliot dude and Rand Paul. Anything either says should be considered false and ignored unless and until proven otherwise.
