I'm ready for the resurgence. Got my bivalent shot and flu together exactly 28 days after my 2nd monkeypox shot because they said there had to be that window.

I'm currently waiting for my 28 period to be over so I can get my flu shot. At least I got two full doses of smallpox rather than a modified dose

Sensation Posted November 26, 2022 Posted November 26, 2022 I just tested positive for Covid for the first time. I woke up shivering with chills and a 102 fever.

No cough or loss of taste/smell yet.
Death & Decay Posted December 1, 2022 Posted December 1, 2022 I just got over Covid. It was terrible. 3 days battling a 101+ fever & even more days with congestion, headache, & feeling so tired. I can’t imagine how it would’ve felt without my vaccines.

Genius1111 Posted December 6, 2022 Author Posted December 6, 2022 Some cities in China are opening up and you do not need a virus test in order to be in public venues. Inevitably, a lot of of older and immunicompromised folks are going to die as restrictions loosen, so it is going to be a lose-lose situation for the government either way.
Genius1111 Posted December 7, 2022 Author Posted December 7, 2022 People in China are now rushing to stock up on antigen kits in light of loosened restrictions. It is going to get really ugly I fear, especially for old folks who stubbornly refuse to get vaccinated.

An attempt in July to impose a jab mandate to access public spaces in the capital Beijing was swiftly abandoned after a strong backlash in a public traumatised by domestic vaccine scandals in recent years. ... Under the zero-Covid policy, "the perceived benefit of vaccination is still quite low", Cowling told AFP. "If you aren't likely to get infected... you may not benefit from vaccination." Officials have also been hesitant to push too hard. "There is always the fear of reprisals," Singapore-based infectious diseases expert Leong Hoe Nam said, noting a history of confrontations between patients' family members and doctors in China after deaths or medical complications. Fixing the problem "requires the government to invest in building trust with the Chinese people", said Nancy Qian, a China policy expert at Northwestern University.
Genius1111 Posted December 12, 2022 Author Posted December 12, 2022 I guess it's never really over... no matter how hard you try to ignore it. I feel really bad for healthcare workers.
