re: After three and a half years, the 'Rona finally got me.

was 2-3 days after my fever died that I lost my taste and smell. It might still happen. You talk about not wanting to eat when everything taste like nothing.

It came back in a week or two.

Yeah I've had the original variant and the Delta, and both absolutely wrecked my sense of smell, which didn't recover for months either time. After having Delta in January of this year, my smell is only just now back to about 60% what it should be.

It affects people differently. I've always had sinus issues though, so I think the currvid only exacerbated them.

The original variant, I was basically asymptomatic except for loss of smell and mild lethargy. I just kept working through it. The Delta was 36 hours of hell, followed by a week of extreme lethargy. I'm in decent shape, 6'3 and 230, mid 40s. Like I said it just affects people differently.

I'd be fine with catching the rona once or twice a year, over getting injected with the clot shots.
