The control cohort of 590,976 adults with at least one negative PCR and no positive PCR were age- and sex-matched
Post COVID-19 infection was not associated with either myocarditis or pericarditis. We did not observe an increased incidence of neither pericarditis nor myocarditis in adult patients recovering from COVID-19 infection
It’s only flu sad thing is people need to experience first before they can understand it clearly is not flu ! And then there are people that will always get it mild, those will down play it for ever .. a evangelist that it’s all a joke .. and they make sure you hear them.i tested positive on sunday morning. symptoms started saturday morning but test was negative. my entire body was sore/cold, had a headache, and light coughing. monday morning the head/body aches were gone but my throat and chest got really bad. lol i remember at the weekend thinking if only the headache would go away then i'll be fine. i can deal with anything except headaches. well the trouble i've went through with my throat/chest has been a fucking nightmare.
my throat felt like it was stinging and burning. any time i tried swallowing i was getting excruciating pain in my throat and both ears. since monday morning until now (1pm on friday) all i've ate is a bowl of tomato soup, a bowl of mashed potato, and ice lollies. i had the soup on monday and over the course of the week i've ate a bowls worth of mashed potato. each time i could only manage a couple spoonfuls. drinking water was too much as well. i have a 500ml bottle and it took me 2 days to drink it. i also couldn't sleep for about 3 days because of the pain and i kept choking if i lay down. i have been coughing up nasty yellow/brown shit.
tried phoning my doctor (6 times...) and they just kept saying that "those are the symptoms of covid. nothing we can do." and i get that but i was in a lot of pain. eventually they gave me some strong painkillers but they didn't do much. one night (can't remember, it's all been a blur) i felt like i was going to pass out (three times it happened) because i was struggling to breathe and both my arms went numb. an ambulance turned up and they checked my oxygen/blood etc which were all fine but they said likely it's an infection. it was only because the paramedics contacted my doctor that i then got some antibiotics.
the antibiotics have made a HUGE difference. i know you cant treat covid with them so i'm thinking my immune system had been weakened and i've also caught a bacterial infection on top of covid ... yey! i'm only a few days into the course and need to take them for another week but wow i feel so much better. i'm still coughing but i can actually drink and eat now! i feel so weak still but now i can eat i should get my strength back
i think i should be fine to go back to work on monday as long as i test negative tomorrow or sunday. i never want to go through this shit again. i followed all the rules and always wore a mask but when the restrictions started easing i guess i got a bit too comfortable not wearing them as much. i'm almost terrified/paranoid to go out in public now so i'll be fully masked up and stocking up on more hand gel! i knew covid was serious but now i've experienced it myself it's really making me more cautious. it aint no fucking joke
Well my fellow gaffers

Well, I just got COVID for the first time, as I tested positive around 6:00 this evening.
I am 52 and vaccinated and had two boosters, the most recent in January.
Right now, I am light-headed, have the chills and have a chest cold/cough. I did a telehealth video call with my PCP, and they don't want me to take Paxodil because of some heartburn medication I have been taking that has been shown to have severe nausea, as a side effect.
So, I am going to wait it out in my house. If I treat this as day one, I take it that I should plan on staying here in the house for 5 days until I am less contagious?
Thanks BadBurger!My doctor told me to stay home at least three days, or until I tested negative. Took me exactly three days to test negative - completely vaxxed with one booster.
Good luck, hope it doesn't get bad for you.

Ya, I had a similar test experience on Saturday. It says in the instructions that the test results will take 15 minutes to appear, but that T line on my test started to appear about 30 seconds after I put the drops into the test. The first two days were bad, but overall it has been mild and I am on the road to recovery.Got covid had both of my shots no booster and I did one of those at home tests and both lines came out on c,and t ,I work at Walmart I wear a mask and gloves but it was just a matter of time,the symptoms are mild the dr told me not to come stay home.
Yea I did another test just to be sure and it’s the same,now I have to go through the hassle with Sedgwick a Walmart insurance thing we’re they will pay me for the days I’ll be gone.Ya, I had a similar test experience on Saturday.

That is good to hear though that you will get to stay home and quarantine and get some pay for the time off. It would suck to have to go in to work while you are dealing with the brain fog from COVID. I didn't even want to drive until yesterday, as it felt like I was driving drunk on Saturday before I took the test in the evening.Yea I did another test just to be sure and it’s the same,now I have to go through the hassle with Sedgwick a Walmart insurance thing we’re they will pay me for the days I’ll be gone.
LA bringing back the mask mandate. Get ready to be locked down until mid-November in the US.
You're either fucking with people or actually divorced from reality.LA bringing back the mask mandate. Get ready to be locked down until mid-November in the US.
*2 years from now*uk deaths passed 200,000 today.
and yet we think its over
You're either fucking with people or actually divorced from reality.
So first of all its an anticipation as per your own article, second of all fox news, third of all even if pans out which hey it very well might, you realize the wide chasm between one city putting in a little temporary rinky dink non enforced mask mandate versus your batshit insane claim of the USA going into lockdown until mid November?
It’s not just Fox news.

Oh my dear lord dude. Did you read any other part of my reply besides the fox news bit? First of all all of those articles still have it contingent on a projection of hospilizations not an official announcement as of yet. Second of all do you have any idea how huge CA is? The largest country is still relatively minute.It’s not just Fox news. It’s every local LA news.

This is how it starts. LA county is the largest county in CA. They reimpose the mandate and that gives Newsom the OK to do it statewide and then move to another stay at home order.
Led by University of Arizona virus evolution expert Michael Worobey, international teams of researchers have traced the start of the pandemic to the market in Wuhan, China, where foxes, raccoon dogs and other live mammals susceptible to the virus were sold live immediately before the pandemic began. Their findings were published Tuesday in two papers in the journal Science, after being previously released in pre-print versions in February.
The publications, which have since gone through peer review and include additional analyses and conclusions, virtually eliminate alternative scenarios that have been suggested as origins of the pandemic. Moreover, the authors conclude that the first spread to humans from animals likely occurred in two separate transmission events in the Huanan market in late November 2019.
One study scrutinized the locations of the first known COVID-19 cases, as well as swab samples taken from surfaces at various locations at the market. The other focused on genomic sequences of SARS-CoV-2 from samples collected from COVID-19 patients during the first weeks of the pandemic in China.
