“… Earlier in the month, I predicted that Omicron would be in full bloom in the USA around Christmas. I would say that it now is, with several States/Territories hitting all time highs for new cases.…”

I’ve tried (and failed miserably) since last summer to add natural immunity to my less broad Moderna immunity. Since I live in Maryland and we’re in the midst of an Omicron wave, perhaps I’ll have more success now. We went to the packed Christmas Eve service last night at our bible believing church (masks were few and far between) and there was much singing of Christmas carols. Surely there must have been a few Omicron viruses unleashed into the air so I’m hoping some of them may have found me. Maybe COVID-19 viruses hate me and avoid me. It’s frustrating. 🤷♂️😸

I recommend being ready to treat your case, the moment you suspect symptoms. Omicron will be in full bloom the next few weeks in Maryland (especially around DC) - but Delta is still on the march as well. Prepare for the worst.
My plan is to ramp up zinc to 50 mg/day if symptomatic, and 10-20,000 IUs of Vitamin D, and a couple of grams of C per day. I’ll be drinking 1-2 liters of tonic water per day, and taking 10 mg. of melatonin, an aspirin, a Benadryl and lactoferrin before bed. In the morning I’ll have another lactoferrin. Some time during the day, a Pepcid, and some horse paste. All stocks, and food for a two week quarantine, are on hand. I timed my booster for the antibody surge to align with the Omicron wave, three weeks ago.
What can I say - I’m a prepper. I believe overkill is better than underkill.
That said, I am also kind of hunting for my case to get it over with - party plans for New Year’s Eve. By then, and the week or two after, it should be getting pretty easy to contract.
