Popular Post Danderman123 Posted July 1, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted July 1, 2022 There is some new strain going around now, it doesn't seem to be detected by the Chinese ATK tests. Lots of people I know have it, they are typically sick for a few days, then okay. I had intimate contact with 2 peopke just before their first symptoms, so I might be confined to bed for a few days. Or my 7 vaccinations may protect me. I don't many of these cases are reported officially. Aa long as the hospitals don't fill up, this wave is nit a big deal. 2 7 3 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sungod Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 Must admit I know a few people with it at the moment (after a quite a while knowing known) . Luckily no one is really sick, as others note, very mild for a few days only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arick Posted July 2, 2022 Share Posted July 2, 2022 Had it two weeks ago. Sick for fours. Didn't test positive until the fourth day. Felt almost the same as the first time. So much for the three vaccines. Mine was brought down from up north not from pattaya Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont think you understand how these things work mate Actually, i do. I got a set of vector virus vaccines in Thailand, and the full set of MRNA vaccines in the US. Plus, i have received a booster every 4 months or so, because the vaccines lose effectiveness over time. 1 2 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Aussieroaming Posted July 2, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted July 2, 2022 If everyone tests negative for covid then it's likely the flu, remember that flu we used to suffer from yearly. Be careful about speading fake news about covid outbreaks, otherwide you might end up under repressive government restrictions again. It seems like some people want to continue to feel like they are surviving an ongoing pandemic. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, just another corona virus (flu) that will be with us for generations to come, as are the prominent A & B. Surely there's plenty of new strains, just not tested or mapped as not causing any real problems. 30+k genomes, there will plenty of new strains.

swm59nj Posted July 2, 2022 Share Posted July 2, 2022 Covid is back in Pattaya? I don’t think it was ever eradicated there. And Covid might not be a big deal for some people. Getting minor symptoms. But serious for others. I see the OP has seven vaccines. I guess you can get as many as you want. But as of this time it is medically recommended to only get four.

grain Posted July 2, 2022 Share Posted July 2, 2022 Cold/Flu symptoms for a few days but test neg with ATK tests. Sounds like a regular cold/flu strain is getting around. Not every cough/fever/runny nose is covid-19. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
