I had it in Dec '22. I was in the Pfizer trial and had the trial Delta booster in Fall '21. My experience was a medium strength cold with some extra tiredness on top. After a few days I was just tired to the point of having to rest after a shower but otherwise felt fine. It took about a week...
I have voted against the Rs since 2020. Before then I tried to research every race and pick the one I thought was best. I hated voting against people instead of for people but it is the right thing to do now.
As to this case specifically I, unfortunately, believe it is going to take many more...
As a father to 3 girls I am appalled at this direction the so called conservatives have taken. As a 7th generation Texan I just don't know what to do about this place anymore. I cannot do anything without risking my current, quite ok, life and at the same time I feel like I cannot do nothing...
I'm still running on my Delta booster I received late last year. I am not allowed to get any other vaccine if I want to remain in the trial. So far I do not believe I have caught the rona despite my kids having it multiple times.
Just filled up 25 gallons of Premium for $4.48/gal. At 15 mpg that will last about two days before the next fill up. All going on the company fuel card and the costs are passed on to the customer.
When it was announced it was also said those planes would be in Ukraine within the hour. Sounds like they literally handed over active squadrons. But I would bet that giant column of armor is being viewed through drone footage right now, those Turkish drones that Ukraine has been using are...
So you don't know why you are now anti-American or you felt like making a random YouTube link? Ok, carry on I guess.
WTF is all this rambling? Rebuild the military? We can easily outmatch rest of the world combined in a conventional war. Directly engaging the one country, other than the...
IMO this has to stop here. We, the world, have to stop this aggression now. Putin has decided to test us and we must not fail this test or else in the not so distant future we will find ourselves having to consider if defending a NATO country is worth the threat of nuclear war. At best we are...
Housing prices, which isn't totally an inflation problem in DFW. We are stuck in a starter home we bought 12 years ago for the 2 of us but now we have a growing 5 person family. Even though my pay has more than doubled in that time frame I couldn't afford to buy this same house again. Bought...
My handwriting is horrendous. I developed a half print/half cursive way of writing in high school that no one seemed to complain about. I can write in full cursive but is becomes basically unreadable after a sentence or two.
My 8 year olds are learning cursive in school, after several years...
I was never really concerned for my children, it has been shown for a long time now that COVID was not really a concern for kids and I was not concerned for my wife and I either as we were vaccinated. Either the vaccines work or they don't, I am supposed to be testing that result. However all...
I had this same feeling when one of my 8 yo twins caught it but no one else in the house did. Same basic thing she felt a bit crap for three days or so but nothing we haven't seen with any other random cold. I tried to convenience people that this is serious for 18 months and then when if...
And considering how fast Omicron is moving we may not be able to gather enough data to chart that growth curve until it is already over. What I am seeing right now though is lots of people taking the 1.5 day doubling time and applying it without limit that leads to excessive worry.
So per this life is nothing more than the constant battle to keep our precious bodily fluids inside our bodies? That is what I got out of it anyway.
What if instead of dancing around like an idiot the robot did a job that could allow it to buy more fluid or patch the leak? It would seem...
Good data, however admitted without the total cases only tells part of the story. I am not saying that there will not be a big strain on the healthcare system again and I am not saying we should all just say it's over and party like it's 2019. I am saying that I do not believe the dire...
Yes last year and even with Delta this year there were many more people saying there were severe cases that there are now and we are seeing record cases in many places due to Omicron. None of this is scientific but it doesn't feel nearly as ominous this time.
Nothing concrete but given the...
After severely overestimating the impact COVID would have since Jan 2020 and being proven wrong several times I am going to go ahead and assume that the sky will in fact stay up this time. Yes many many more people will get sick but I do not believe it is going to result in too much of an...
I would think the primary benefit of a Omicron formulation would not necessarily be for Omicron but for variants that are based off of it in the future. The one in trials now is modified for Alpha and Delta. Alpha is basically extinct and Delta seems to have it's days numbered but the booster...
I was given a small update today by the modified booster trial people that initial signs are showing the modified booster is nearly twice as effective as the regular booster against Omicron.
Also, my side effects from the modified booster were milder than the second shot but I was told that is...
I was scheduled to finally get my booster through the Pfizer trial today. I had put it off due to the nasty cold I had the last two weeks. When I contacted them this morning to confirm my appointment I was informed that Pfizer opened up some more slots in the multivalent trial so I hopped in...
I am also on day 6 of some kind of cold type thing, negative PCR last week. It has kicked my ass though. I delayed getting my booster last Friday because I didn't think it would be wise to overload my system. Not that it might make the booster less effective but that it might let something...
Meanwhile in Europe things aren't going so smoothly anymore.

Apparently the multivalent study had very limited slots so I didn't get in, bummer. They said I would not get kicked from the trial if I don't get the currently approved booster despite earlier statements to the contrary, so we'll see how long that holds up. I would probably get it if I was...
State Farm since about 2003 for me, have had rate decreases the last three years. Could I find cheaper? Yes, but the claims I have had were zero hassle and quickly handled so I am fairly happy.
More than none, otherwise vigilantism rules. It helps that I have never actually had to relay on it for anything up to now.
We did need it to work a couple weeks ago but karma took care of that for us apparently. Some asshat assaulted us and immediately upon making bail killed himself in a...
I was on a jury trial to have someone committed by the state against their will. They could only be committed for 6 months at a time and had to have another trial every time. Both the prosecution and defense were atrocious but in the end we used to testimony of the state Dr to continue having...
We bought a battery powered mower and trimmer last year when our old mower finally died. It is awesome. I always hated having to go get gas to do something I didn't want to do anyway. I would have to invest in batteries though if I had any more than our .25 acres.
Gang fight apparently. 4 injured, 1 refused treatment and 3 in the hospital. Students and staff involved. There have been several gang related fights at the school for the last few days.
At least that what the people who know the details are telling us.
I received my Pfizer study email about getting our booster shots last week. We have to get them to remain in the trial but it was opt in. I drug my feet on confirming and today received another email about needing people that are still in the study with only two doses to volunteer for the...
The housing thing is stupid and is significantly contributing to my poor mental health at the moment. My in-laws were telling us we were just being too picky and lots of good priced, for the area, places were available. They never looked at prices and just assumed based on what they paid in 03...
True, and it is easier for them when they mentally discount serious cases as being the result of other conditions.
Yeah she is almost 8. It is also possible she didn't have Delta either but that would be against the odds at this point.
