    Had my Covid booster this morning and my immune system is clearly overreacting. Every bone hurts, my sats are in the low 90's, and I'm freezing: my hands are shaking and my teeth are chattering despite it being 21C in here. I do hope this doesn't last too long ...

      I checked last week and they weren't available in this area yet. After reading your post I'm not sure I want to go with this round. We and the SO had all our shots, boosters and we still got it. Hope you get over it quickly.

        :rose: Not as bad as you, but we both had more reaction to Pfizer boosters (#3, 4) than either of the original A-Z shots. Got over it in a day or so. She blamed it on having the fluvax at the same time, but I'm not convinced of that.

            We are due for our fifth booster shots as well. I hope it deals more kindly with us. About a month ago, my youngest daughter who lives with us, came down with Covid. She was coughing and wheezing all over the house and I was convinced we will both be infected, but we came through without so much as a sore throat. I am sure it was the vaccination and boosters that protected us! We will not miss these latest boosters.:java:

            Ok, I have had my coffee, so you can all come out now!

                I've got neck and back pain which I've not experienced before and a very sore arm which I have had before Covid has certainly got it in for you though - hope it doesn't last long.

                  I have decided that at the age of 78 I am just as likely to die of Covid as anything else. I had my last booster back in May, and am declining all future offers.

                    It clearly also has serious effects on mental state as the claim of 21C in Wales in October is clearly the machination of a disturbed mind. You'll be telling us next that it isn't raining ... :)

                      Never had a booster. Got the rona. It was rough, but since then I've stopped doing everything I used to in regards to masking, washing hands 30 times a day, worrying, etc. Never had a problem since getting it and it's been a year. It's almost like antibodies work.

                            We travel a lot so we protect when out and about but at home we don't. Oddly we picked up the rona on a trip Québec. Took us a month to get over it.

                              The wife & I had our flu & Covid jabs last Friday - one in each arm. She retired to bed feeling very under the weather as though she had flu. I had pains in upper arms and neck that others have mentioned - which I don't usually get - plus also felt unusually cold. I definitely think the Pfizer vaccination has more side effects as I had the AstraZeneca one before and had no side effects at all. Of course, it could just be that I getting old... :)

                                Longer than you otherwise would have. People that live the longest are generally happy. Folks that worry about everything tend not to be happy.

                                    But there is no "otherwise", we only live as long as we live. We can possibly keep alive into old age by good diet and keeping active, but equally some of the healthiest people can die quite young.

                                        I have decided that at the age of 78 I am just as likely to die of Covid as anything else. I had my last booster back in May, and am declining all future offers.

                                        I'm 60 y/o (vaccinated w/ 1 boost - all in 2021) and have made the same decision. COVID has generally weakened to head cold / flu levels of severity so I don't see the point of endless boosters of mRNA.

                                          But there is no "otherwise", we only live as long as we live. We can possibly keep alive into old age by good diet and keeping active, but equally some of the healthiest people can die quite young.

                                          You're missing the point dude. And there is an "otherwise"... for instance... let's say you thought about jumping off a cliff. And I'm no... don't. It's safe to say you'd live longer than you otherwise would've had you jumped off one. Not sure why you're going to argue with me being nice. Guess you're bored or something. Might wanna look inward dude.
