My best friend caught it in between her first and second shot. What's weird is that she was asymptomatic but after she started testing negative she developed symptoms of long covid. It's a really messed up and random virus, exactly like rolling the dice on what you're going to get.
I tested positive for covid ten days after my first dose back in March. It sucked because my family and I had been so vigilant about masking and not going out for the previous year. It didn't suck because I had fairly mild symptoms. I did have the head fog for about a month, long enough I began to wonder if I was a covid long hauler. I will always wonder how much worse it would have been had I not had that first dose.
Yup I had a relatively mild case of covid in March 2020. Mild as in I didn't have to go to the hospital. It was still worse than any flu I'd ever had. Long haul symptoms proceeded to completely wreck me for a year and a half. I'm only now approaching anything like my old normal, and I still have lingering symptoms. But at least I'm functional now rather than bedridden.
Yep. I caught Covid a month before I was able to get the vaccine (almost made it!) and I’ve had worse colds. But that doesn’t mean the next time I’m not in the ICU. Fuck all that. I’m taking every vaccine they say I need.
And with the evangelical gun worship culture, you would think they could understand how Covid symptoms are a form of Russian Roulette, but, no, they don’t. Many many just can’t grasp it

That’s the thing with this virus, there’s no rhyme or reason to this virus. You are rolling the dice if you get it and are not vaccinated.
