It seems to have finally claimed me as a victim. I was only vaccinated over a year ago for the original strains, so probably no help from the vaccines. Sore throat for 2 days, high fever for a day or 2, loss of taste for 12 hours. I am almost back to 100% now, I think it will take another 2 days.
But we shall see if long covid persists in my lungs, but I don't think it will since I didn't have trouble breathing or a strong cough. Obviously my symptoms were fairly mild, all things considered, but I still hope that covid doesn't mutate more and I get it again. More annoying than yearly flus that's for sure.
