Hello Covid!
-
It's day 5 since I tested positive (day 6 from onset of symptoms) and I am finally able to sit upright for more than an hour. The missus (who just got over it) left on day 2 for a scheduled family beach vacation with the kids/grandkids so I have been completely isolated since Monday morning. I hear it's different for everyone and largely depends on virus strain, preexisting conditions, vaccinations/boosters, age, etc. My personal experience is that it felt like having a bad case of the regular flu that I used to get every 4-5 years. That said, the experience has cost me almost a week of downtime! Sad but true, yesterday I saw two maps of the US, high temps and covid outbreaks...they looked identical! On a larger scale, it seems the entire northern hemisphere is setting temp records. I feel badly for those without A/C during these extremes. :rose:

Knock wood, I have not got it yet. I have both Pfizer vaccinations and the first booster. However, my wife is a Registered Nurse, working part-time, and I believe it is only a matter of time before it gets me. My wife says it won't happen because I am so mean, that germs and viruses commit suicide the minute the get into my body. :) Sorry you are not feeling well.

I have the same vaccination profile and have not had it either. And they laugh at us basement dwellers.
I’ve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated.

Ditto, except I got the Moderna and first booster. The new variant didn't care! To be fair, I hadn't been wearing a mask at all. X|

I just reviewed the forum rules stickied at the top, and I dont see any rules listed there that his post violates. In fact, this discussion topic seems to fall pretty squarely within the intended purpose of this forum: >1. The lounge is for the CodeProject community **to discuss things of interest to the community**, and as a place for the whole community to participate. It is, first and foremost, a respectful meeting and discussion area for those wishing to **discuss the life of a Software developer**. Getting sick with the ongoing pandemic seems to be of interest to the community and part of the life of a software dev. What forum rule do you think was violated here?

Three of our family had contracted Covid in January this year, the Omicron variant. Really drained out all the energy. Take all precautions and get well soon.

Again, for the confused among us, this forum is a technical one. NOT a medical one. There are dedicated forums online for the discussion on subjects like fashion, sports, travel or health concerns and anxieties. There is also professional support for those who feel they need it only a google away. On this forum we discuss subjects exclusively on computer science/computer engineering. Read the policy again just as you would read the documentation of an API and find the bug in your thought process if you feel opposed to the above. Admins/Moderators please take action. There are users here who shall not allow the decades-long quality of this forum to be compromised.

The note above this forum specifies what's OK. Technical posts, at least in the form of questions and lengthy posts, are actually to be avoided. There are technical posts about what people are working on, often to vent, but there are also Wordle results, cryptic crosswords, and jokes (usually puns). Yesterday, even a link to a cat video. It would be a dry site if every post had to be technical. The only things off-limits are topics that are likely to lead to flame wars or trolling.

OK, it's pretty obvious you are not kidding.

Do you mean the text at the top of this forum that reads:
Quote:
Welcome to the Lounge For discussing anything related to a software developer's life but is not for programming questions.
Now, read that a few times, mull it over, and find your own bug. I suggest you also translate/lookup the word 'lounge' and better yet, go visit one and get a real experience. (of course wear a mask!) It might enlighten you and lighten you up a bit. Chill out.

What I think it might be the case...:confused:
M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

This is "the lounge"; not a "technical forum". OP is recounting a "personal" experience; that's what people "lounging" about sometimes do.

You seem to have a change of heart in the last few years - or is congratulating someone on their marriage, or posting a political video about the US president considered "technical" these days :laugh:
