Covid

Post by Cirrus_Minor » Wed Aug 10, 2022 5:49 pm

After managing to avoid it all this time without catching covid this morning tested positive. Really bad headache, annoying dry cough, high temperature and feel like ****. Very annoying since I was due to go to Lanzerotte in September and Mrs CM is on the vulnerable list.

Rest up mate, it's a bugger and still very much around! My Mum's just come down with it for the third time (tested on Lateral Flow) she works in a care home where it's currently going round.

Hopefully you'll be well enough in time to go away! And hope the Mrs stays free from it.

You should be good for September, sleep in different rooms and open the windows to let the air flow through and fingers crossed Mrs CM will be ok. I had it 3 weeks ago bur the other 3 in my house managed to stay healthy. Plenty of water, fresh fruit and vitamin k.

I wish I were to get it now with the current version rather then that which was around in March 2021. I too “breezed” through the symptoms but the long term impact has turned me from a 90+ percentile fitness for my age into a drug-dependent old man

I think some of the symptoms are very similar to hayfever so unless you tested yourself you wouldn’t really know & you would just pass it off as that.

I avoided it until the latest version which is more catchable. I felt rough for a few days but it affects people very differently. Nobody wearing masks and people coughing at you in supermarkets doesn’t help of course.

I jest mate, but the point is, even if you mean the series wasn't made 100 years ago, it was out longer than when Covid started, so talking about Peaky Blinders in 2022 and Covid-19 in 2022 is effectively the same thing, they are both still going.

WHO are less than impressed with the downplaying of Covid the Government has been practicing this last twelve months. They have tried to issue several warnings and now believe there is every chance Britain will be among the first countries to suffer ‘super Covid,’ strains immune to current vaccinations as a result of the policy.

The only two things that have ever had any effect on controlling the spread were a full lockdown and use of vaccines.

We simply cannot afford to lockdown ever again, and using vaccines will by their nature naturally encourage resistant strains if they just so happen to mutate in such a way.

I’m not sure what the WHO suggest we do.

I mean in general - some people on this forum will have covid & hayfever even a common cold without knowing if they have covid if it’s mild you don’t really bother testing no need to, you assume it is because you don’t care it only becomes an issue if you are around vulnerable people, nobody really cares anymore not like when it first broke out.

Very hard to put a date on it as the historical Peaky Blinders were not a major gang when most of the action takes place. Many of the events are based on real gangland events, but very few were by ‘the Peaky blinders.’ There were far bigger organisations, in all the major cities. The first recorded from the 1840’s (I think) in Manchester/ Salford - The ‘Salford Boys,’ opened one of the first Boxing gyms to stop their kids going down the same route and is why Boxing clubs tended to be known as ‘Boys clubs’ up to recent liberal times, (when it was forgotten ‘Boys’ had nothing to do with gender).

I predict that history will tell us lockdown was the worst government policy in living memory.

If they bring masks back l will refuse to wear one.

If it comes back in any great wave it won’t be optional. Them masks saved god knows how life’s by mitigating the transmission & viral load.

I'd love to see your evidence that masks make any difference whatsoever.

If the mask causes you any sort of discomfort then you are exempt. Not that I have to prove it. I just won't be wearing one. I refuse to be controlled by this useless government any longer.
Just google what the scientists say it’s easy enough to do, it’s been pretty much unanimously agreed masks help it’s even been set up as experiments in labs testing non wearers & wears in finding out the difference.

Of course it has :lol:

To give you a very famous example, Joe Biden, who never seemed to have his mask off in public, managed to catch it twice in a week!

Just accept that everyone is different. Some people will sail through Omicron, while others will be poorly, some very poorly for quite a few weeks too. All this is based on my family, friends and colleagues.

Oh, and I'm not saying bring masks back, but to state, that they don't have an impact is just silly and doesn't stack up with the mountains of evidence. Oh, and don't bother quoting because I won't respond. It's not going to change anyone's mind if they are against mask evidence.

I was very poorly in May with COVID, which led to the 2nd cancellation of my shoulder replacement surgery. I was re scheduled to have the 4 hour Op in the morning. I'd a pre Op COVID test on Monday and received a call from the hospital ward earlier today, telling me, they'd been advised my COVID test was positive. I was gutted, as I've no symptoms. I've another 7 weeks before I can be considered for the Op. Hopefully now during the World Cup period.

Are these the masks where people wear the same one for weeks on end, breathing in their own sputum?

Avoided it for two years then tested positive in late April this year. Felt a bit "fluey" for two or three days but took 14 days to register a Negative test!
Ever since I wake up every morning with virtually every joint aching and feeling lethargic despite my orthopaedic mattress!

Having had to test on a weekly basis I've managed 3 helpings of it, 2 of which I wouldn't have known were C19. The most recent one was the only time I've felt at all ill.

Yep, I wouldn’t recommend it. Weirdly I have also become far more sodium deficient - The cramps stop only by ridiculous amounts of salt. Tried soda water, normally recommended, but my sister in law (a ward sister) gave me a tub of Saxo and said try this when the cramps started during a meal… I’ve needed it every day since.

My problems are more skeletal than muscular - arthritic perhaps - but hadn't had the issue before Covid. There seems to be an ever lengthening list of symptoms now.

Wore a mask for 2 years in shops even before they were recommended. Doesn’t really bother me if it helps. Stopped wearing one completely about 2 months ago and caught Covid. Of course they help stop the spread of the virus. They are not an excuse to stop social distancing though. Many people don’t care and will openly walk around coughing without covering their mouth. Its going to spread but there’s a good chance you won’t die from it this time around.

My problems are more skeletal than muscular - arthritic perhaps - but hadn't had the issue before Covid. There seems to be an ever lengthening list of symptoms now.
I get triffic back-aches, but it all seems to be related to wind getting trapped in muscles and tendons. It’s not very polite post salt but by God it’s worth the deep burping, it relieves my pain in a minute or two, sometimes instantly, thank God.

I am 78 in October and wear masks on buses and in shops .
Have had a total of 4 vaccinations and should be able to have a 5 th in October
I am lucky to never have had covid and am hoping to carry on with wearing masks to avoid it.
When outside it is easy to avoid people when walking even in Lincoln City Center.
I walk about 12 km a day from 8 am to 12 and never go out in afternoon unless I need to this hot weather.
