Why would you want the vaccine if you've already had Covid? You have the means to fight it now.

That’s a good question. I’m on day 11 and still have tingling in arms and legs plus a small headache. I never had a fever so not sure how well my body fought this thing.

I wasn’t admitted to a hospital and I wouldn’t call my symptoms severe but enough to make me wish I or anyone I know never has to deal with this. Getting a vaccine even though I’ve had it would put my mind at ease I guess. Maybe a sort of “double protection”.

But I definitely understand your comment. This whole thing is crazy and just looking for feedback. Thanks

There’s discussion (and studies) whether the vaccine antibodies will last longer than natural infection. I believe early studies indicate natural infection may only last 3-ish months. An early study has shown the Moderna vaccine may last up to two years. It’s why they’re still recommending folks who have had it to get vaccinated if they’re 90 days out from infection.
