Corona Got Me

So it finally happened

I have Corona. I could have sworn I have had it before since I have had some pretty nasty colds in the last few years. But none of the tests came out positive - until some days ago. The last three days were pretty tough: fever, severe limb pain, nose running. But strangely enough I am not coughing a lot and I don't have any throat ache. Yesterday evening strangely enough (colds usually get worse in the night) I suddenly felt better. If that was the worst of it, I honestly have to say that this wasn't all too bad. I mean sure I would have been totally okay not getting this infection, but for now it feels like it was just a usually bad cold.

I used to cover the pandemic and how it affected society. I am glad that we have normalized Corona and I only very rarely see someone wearing a mask outside. I guess all the people that are hypochondriac are now just making themselves visible to others. But that's okay, everyone should be able to do what they want. It's clear on hindsight that forcing people to comply with all of the mandates was ethically wrong. We can only hope that the herd consciousness has realized that and it won't happen again. Although I am quite skeptical of that...

Oh yeah, and I never had any vaccination. Not that that would have really made a difference since it usually only protects for several months and I remember reading a study that actually suggested the more vaccinations one had had, the worse the protection got (in fact, the effect even went negative). I suppose I also can't compare this infection with the early variants of Covid. They really did seem more serious, but it also shows that the infections from viruses usually get less severe with time.

Anyway, what is your experience; have you had Corona? Did you get vaccinated?
