The event wasn't fundamentally anit-vaxx. It was called the Florida Summit on COVID:

There is a new variant of concern, Omicron, and we don't know if it evades the vaccine.

Good morning C2g. This is terrible news! President Biden is restricting travel from South Africa and 7 other countries staring Monday!
Not the kind of news anyone wants to hear.

It has now been just shy of a year since I was officially diagnosed with covid. And I can say with absolute certainty that I have lingering effects. At least in regards to taste and smell. A lot of stuff just smells the same. Like my sense of smell is limited to a small palette of odors and fragrances now. But up until today I couldn't quite put into words what I've been experiencing. But it hit me like a ton of bricks while my wife was cooking lunch. One of those smells is over-buttered, burnt grilled cheese. I smell it all the time. It is slightly depressing. Not near as depressing as not being able to smell or taste anything, as was the case for 3 weeks with covid. But an odd long term ailment nonetheless. Just my personal experience and observation. Fucking over-buttered, burnt grilled cheese.

Maybe I got it too, lately my flavor expectations have been letting me down,
Hell I have pint of Ben and Jerry's that's still there in the freezer, partly eaten.
Eating is becoming laborious.
The one thing I learned and absolutely took for granted is the amount of pleasures and satisfactions that one derives from simply eating. For three weeks being devoid of those senses was straight up depressing. Like I was depressed. Clinically. You know, self nudo-gnosis of course.

This is interesting, hope it pans out
However, expect the prices of these to skyrocket, ya know, greed merchants
Benadryl and Lactoferrin, OK, time to order a massive amount of Benadryl as that will be off the shelves. Just ordered 6 bottles of it. Thanks for the heads up.

Doesn't seem too surprising really. Benadryl is a pretty great drug that works for a lot of things, many of which are known effects of covid 19.

:hug: Yeah IV Benadryl was almost as quick as IV Adrenaline when you needed it.
Hi curious2garden!
My wife and I were going to make an appointment for a booster shot this week and now with the new variant we think we should take a wait and see for a couple of weeks before getting the booster to allow time for an upgraded booster that might help with the Omicron variant. Our second dose of Moderna was in April. Does waiting a couple of weeks to get the booster sound like a good idea?

These are injections not software updates. Nothing is gonna change in the shots within a couple of weeks.
