In reply to the discussion: So Covid just went away, huh? [View all]Raftergirl
(1,856 posts)44. My neighbors across the street are both down with Covid right now. Fortunately we don't live in a place
where our doctors are idiots, so they were both prescribed Paxlovid. Her husband is feeling better (got sick on Sunday) but she didnt start feeling sick until Tuesday and tested negative until yesterday, so she is a few days behind him. She still is feeling awful and sounds terrible.
My H was worried as he hasnt seen their cars move for days, which is very unusual. So I called and she told me what was up.
They get all the boosters but I dont know if they had gotten their fall booster yet and I didnt ask.

Got my booster today. They usually don't hurt afterwards, but I got a real sore arm now.

I had it last year and the loss of taste and smell is very troubling. We only have 5 senses.
