As someone who had a "mild" (I only had a 103 fever for 3 weeks, swelling in all manner of weird places, and exhaustion) Covid Original Flavour(tm), I still have symptoms due to the aftermath even a year later.
Research keeps increasing the percentage for people who have "long Covid" symptoms and the length of their duration.
And I didn't have a symptom like losing my smell which seems to be very common. Losing your sense of smell for a very long time really sucks.
People are vastly underestimating the risks of actual Covid and vastly overestimating any risks from the vaccine.
And this is before we talk about the fact that people are dying of treatable, non-Covid diseases because Covid patients who won't get a vaccine are clogging the hospitals.
- angelzen 5y agoThis is rough, sorry to hear that. Hopefully it will get better in the long run. You are absolutely correct: if the only reason for not getting the vaccine is concern over vaccine side effects, then take the vaccine.
