I am not wrong, you said folk won't die from a "lesser" strain of C19, that is guesswork....???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wrong, the stats say 29% less chance of hospital which means less chance of death. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like you did have Covid-19... as you wrote, not really a big deal. ATK does work for Omicron - I’m not sure from where you got your information otherwise. ATK is not as accurate as RT-PCR. My Wife, Inlaws and myself all had Covid-19 about 4-5 months back (mild symptoms so we’re suspecting Omicron).... the ATK picked it up in all of us.

No sore throat, but the weird feeling of having fever, without while having normal temperature. I took Paracetamol for 3 and half days. Could have done without, but I am no masochist. Yep I went to 711 a few times expecting high Temp's but nothing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danderman123 Posted September 23, 2022 Author Share Posted September 23, 2022 I was in a US pharmacy today, and they were advertising a “bivalent” vaccine that was designed for Omicron. So, I got a shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
