Recent trip to Las Vegas - guess who got Covid?
Vanity

Posted on 06/25/2022 10:36:27 AM PDT by MMaschin

Myself and four of my friends recently returned from Las Vegas after a golf/guys trip. We left from Austin on Thursday the 16th and returned on Sunday the 19th.

One of the guys, the one I shared a room with was not feeling great on Sunday when we were heading back to Austin. I attributed it to a hangover, but on Monday, he sent out a text to the group that he had Covid.

After getting that news, we all took tests and only one other guy tested positive. On Thursday another started feeling bad and he retested positive. The other two, including me, still feel fine and have retested today negative.

The interesting thing is that ALL three of those who got sick and tested positive are fully vaccinated and boosted. The two of us who have not gotten sick and tested negative are unvaccinated. We are all in our mid-forties to mid-fifties. During the trip we pretty much hung out as a group together the whole time.


PersonPos/NegHistory
MeNegUnvaccinated. Covid twice. First bad flu, second mild congestion
KenNegUnvaccinated. Never had Covid
WaynePosVaccinated and boosted. Covid Twice. Past and current like mild flu.
BrechPosVaccinated and booster. Never had Covid. Currently like bad flu.
TimPosVaccinated and booster. Never had Covid. Currently like mild flew



I had, and continue to have, faith in my natural immunity. The other unvaccinated guy claims to have never had Covid, but his wife did, so I think it's possible he had an asymptomatic case and therefore has immunity.

The part I find most bothersome is the guy who first tested positive. He's had a symptomatic case before and just had another. To me, this lends some credence to my biggest fear of getting vaccinated, that the vaccinations damage existing natural immunity.

The golf was good. We played Bali Hai right off the strip. One of the guys is a PGA instructor. My objective was to simply not embarrass myself. I only lost one ball and didn't do worse than double, so I'm happy.

Pretty well at the tables. Came out ahead enough to pay for my golf and the nice steak dinner we had at Barry's. We stayed on the strip but went to Barry's on Friday night, I HIGHLY recommend it. Also, the Circa has by far the best sports book in Vegas. It is amazing.

I’m unvaccinated. Yesterday I had my annual physical and results were the best I’d had in a decade. (In my 70s.
Had WuFlu September 2021.)

Thanks for the anecdotal report. It’s always interesting to read about how Rona gets around.

I work (daily) in a building that is still mostly empty due to generous work-at-home rules. I’m the only person I know that isn’t maksed and vaxxed. Everyone else I know is—to the max. Anyway, I’m surprised at the number of work-at-homers that still text in sick—with Covid no less.

That’s what they say! Who knows if they even have anything at all. But it’s like living an old Family Circus strip where Billy points to NotMe, I-Dunno, and Wegots-Covid as fall-back excuses.

“You clearly did not read the post.”

Don’t need to, only know that most here don’t go starting threads every time they catch a cold.

Zev Zelenko, MD. Here’s his very thorough and effective treatment protocol for Covid:

https://onedaymd.aestheticsadvisor.com/2021/03/zelenko-protocol.html?m=1

Ivermectin won the Nobel in 2015. It is safer than Tylenol. If necessary, start with Quercetin as it doesn’t require a prescription. It’s safe and natural.

Zev characterizes the treatment as follows:

Quercetin/IVM/HCQ = Pistol
Zinc = Bullet
Zpak= Bullet Proof Vest

IVM = Ivermectin
HCQ = Hydroxychloroquine
Zpak = Antibiotic

An Antibiotic wards off lung cell infection. If you treat with Q/IVM/HCQ and Zinc early and diligently, Zpak might not be necessary.

In my view, the vaxxes are not effective and are highly suspect.

Your Andectdotal evidence is ‘just another data point that shows shutting down the world’s economy for 2 years was a slight overeaction. /s

This has never been about public health.

History may show the world probably would have better off in the long run if their were no “vaccines” and “warp speed” never happened.

We had been taking vitamin D, zinc, and vitamin C daily. Nothing else.

I would recommend adding Quercetin to your daily routine. The zinc cannot get past the cell membranes without a zinc ionophore, and that is what Quercetin is. The zinc needs to enter the cell in order to block the replication of the COVID-19 virus.

I have purchased this one from Amazon (click on image to go to Amazon):

.

Swanson also has higher-dose pills that are more expensive on a per-capsule basis.

Got double vaxxed(Pfizer), no boosters.

About a month after my second vax, came down with a mild cold.

Shook it off.

Before covid in 2019, I would get sneezing fits, sneezing 4 or 5 times in a row.

Now I still sneeze, but only once or twice in a row.

Just live with it, but if I'm in a public place and I sneeze, a couple of people will give me dirty looks.

We are just getting over Covid. We too are unvaccinated and 70 and 73 years old. We were both sick on Tues. Lots of coughing, but it never made it into the lungs. Felt hungover for the last few days, but almost 100% today. We were taking Vitamin C and D and Quercetin/Zinc and occasionally Ivermectin.
Don’t know if it helped any, but unlike the vaccines, I figured it wouldn’t hurt.

Used a humidifier and slept a lot.

The rest of the family is vaccinated and they already had covid.
