I've had flu like effects from all three shots, usually three days in bed and then I'm fine. I got the vaccine because I had an 82 year old with health issues in the house, it probably wouldn't kill me but I certainly didn't want to give it to her.

A few days before Christmas, I dropped a friend at the airport and felt a sore throat coming on. It turned into the worst sore throat, cough, congestion and headaches I've ever experienced. I think that it could have been Omicron but who drags themselves out of bed to sit in line for a few hours to get tested? I was in bed for 13 days just coughing, running nose and sweating for a couple of those days. Luckily, I have gotten back to running and feeling back to normal now. Why get the vaccine? So you don't get sick enough to go to the hospital and not spread it to someone that it will likely kill. You can be asymptomatic but you're really protecting those that it may kill.
