I'm 33 y/o 5'9" 180 lb unvaccinated male.
I didnt feel bad at all until midnight last night. Then boom sore throat, and aches. I went back to sleep only to wake up this morning feeling slightly worse. I still have a rapid antigen test from Walgreens I never used so I took the test and what do you know? Positive.

I'm not too concerned, I have plenty of Zinc, C, D, Ivermectin, and Colloidal Silver.
The only part that worries me is that I have an autoimmune condition, Lyme disease, so not really sure how that will affect me.

Tl;dr
Got the Covid, not feeling great, but not terrible either. I think I have enough meds and supps to ward this thing off pretty easily. Ill keep you posted. Anybody have experiences to share?

Amazing how this variant is really hitting hard the circa 30 year old group.

Are you dying in the street right now?

Can you confirm or deny you are dying from or with COVID?

Sorry to tell you that you only have a 99.2% chance of surviving this illness.

On your death bed make sure to ask for the shot and see if the doctor really says its just too late.

37, 175, mostly regular runner in good shape.


I got destroyed by RSV this week. 3 covid tests all negative. Phlegm mucus and a nagging cough. After feeling better Friday, I took a turn about 6 pm and went to urgent care feeling like lukewarm hot dog water.

They confirmed not covid and most likely RSV that turned into a sinus infection.

Same thing of not covid has gone around a ton of people around me. Plenty of Covid positives as well that didn’t have it as bad as myself.

CNN/MSNBC - so what, you still need to get 3 jabs of the vaccine and a booster shot every 6 months for the rest of your life and you still need to wear 4 masks

I got it and pneumonia at the same time.

Stay hydrated.

I ended up going to hospital to get an IV after I lost about 15 pounds.

Wish I had done it sooner.

My whole damned family has had it over the last 3 weeks. It’s pretty mild. Had a little concern when the 5 month old caught it, but she’s perfectly fine.

ETA: Anyone downvoting a family of 5 and two grandparents having a mild case of Covid is a pretty terrible individual.

I wouldnt necessarily say Im immunosuppressed. Lyme disease has done a number to my immune system(random allergies, etc) but that's as much as I can confirm.

I guess we will find out.

Keep an eye on your oxygen levels. For your age, should be in mid to high 90s. If you don't have an oxygen monitor, see if someone can pick one up for you. I picked one up for around $35 a year ago.
