New cases are really starting to nosedive. Next week should be great.
I just popped positive for COVID myself this morning.
I was fully vaccinated (Pfizer) and boosted last month (J&J), but got mild symptoms starting on Sunday. My first at home test was negative on Monday, but symptoms continued, and my wife tested positive, so I went in for a PCR test on Thursday.
Never ran a fever, or saw my pulse oxygen fall. I started feeling better today. Been taking zinc, Vitamin D and C, quercetin, drinking tonic water, Lactoferrin and Benadryl at night, with melatonin. Maybe that made it less severe, but the duration seems pretty standard for Omicron.
Has anyone compared efficacy of different shot combos against Omicron? I stayed all Moderna (2 shots + booster), myself.
Any particular reason for that? I believe the quinine in tonic water was used by British colonials in India and Africa to make their sweat bitter, which made them unattractive to mosquitos which carry malaria.
Is there any claim that it has a positive effect vis-a-vis Covid?
Thanks for that report, and I hope you both recover quickly and fully.
