I want to provide a contrasting anecdote. A friend of mine, a farmer in Illinois got Moderna vax + Pfizer booster. 39 years old. Contracted covid before Xmas and got completely hammered by Covid. 10 days of agony. His sister is a doctor and helped him get through it, while the hospitals wouldn't take him unless he registered x degrees in fever. He was just shy below it. He had trouble breathing, the man was broken after a week of this. I was with him on the phone on a daily basis. Just before new years, his vocal chords were so ineffective, he couldn't talk from all the coughing. It was really painful to see him go through this and even more stressful in early days since he had breathing problems, that uncertainty of things getting worse is more painful than the physical pain. "Will I live the next day?".
