One year after my Stepdad passed away due to Covid(pre vaccine), my Mom, who is now living in an assisted living facility in Mass, tested positive for Covid. My Mom, who will be 88 in February, is fully vaccinated and had her booster shot. She had a bad cold 2 weeks ago but has felt fine since then. She has been in quarantine for past 10 days and I talked to her last night and she feels great. Chalk up a positive story for the vaccine.

Sorry to hear about your Mom having to Quarantine. Good to know that she's been feeling fine of late. Sounds as though the vaccination may have squashed some of the symptoms - although I've read that symptoms of the Omicron Variant (if that's what she acquired) can mimic a common cold.

I'm symptomatic now; got tested yesterday at the facility in Bristol where my GP works, waiting on results (not a rapid test).
Fully vaxxed via Pfizer.

Omicron doesn't seem to care if we're vaxxed. It is touching every family I know in MA, CT & RI. Just colds etc, but it's a scare.
Had to take a test two different times following Christmas and New Years due to exposure.
We just can't let down our guard.

Tested positive.
Last night was tough getting to sleep, due to cough, but then slept 'til 11:30am.
Fell somewhat better today.

Hope your recovery continues. Getting there, but it has a tendency to drag on. A pattern that has repeated twice: I'll have my best day and get duped into thinking every day going forward must be at least as good as this, but then the following day will be worse. But the general pattern is improvement. Getting stuff done out in my garage, though sometimes at odd hours due to a totally disrupted sleep cycle. Heading out for a driving trip to Nashville on Monday, ready or not, but I might be driving at night with all the big rigs! |

Tested positive myself. So far, just a little cold... sore throat and a little snifel. Hoping that's the brunt of it.
