    this is tough drivers. I have been taking care of my wife for 2 weeks, she just turned 74, she brought home the COVID. I was checking on her every HOUR, Sometimes she was coughing right in my face. I didnt think of wearing a mask, she said its just a cold. Well, she was wrong. Just when she was up and walking the house, WHAM, it hit me, and i was in bed for 3 days. The feelings are horrible, constantly coughing. Energy low. She refused to get the Vaccine. She goes to Church on Wednesdays and events during the week. I was so afraid of giving her the virus, truck stops, warehouses, I got vaccinated phizer September, and Second one October. also Flu shot, 65+pnumonia shot. I hope this goes away soon.

    I just had it as well, came down saturdy last week went to the hospitial last sunday back in my truck friday and driving today. I still feel like a bus ran me over, backed up and did it again then a mob of morbidly obease starwars fans charged off to the sound of twinkie wrapers before i was set on fire and now have chubby kids sitting on each lung while lead weights are tied to every limb.

    That said cranberry juice, zync suppliments, mucinex and oscillococcinum all help a LOT. Take hot showers every few hours to help the mucis load stay light and keep everything internally moist. Do the above and you will feel a LOT better after a few days.

    Got it back in December 2019. A rough five days. Was sore for a week or so after. Been good ever since. Take the zinc and D3 every day. No vaccine.
