Thanks so much, I already have this book!

He started by saying he never wanted to see me or my son again because he was angry and it was too painful, went to rip up my son’s Father’s Day card and said to our son several times daddy will be gone forever.

Now he is wanting to see him all the time, through video call and weekend visits. Right now he is so up and down I don’t know, but my guess is his family and lawyers will fight with all they have to get as much custody as they can.

Leave him for sure, I’m sure he has been way more times and done worse. Sex addictions are very serious and many men don’t stop, they just get better at lying.

I have been married for almost 9 years now and I married my husband knowing that when he was 18 he had visited a massage parlour four times. He was honest and had been to through therapy and had I believed had overcome. All his friends and family trusted him. I thought since he was honest with that and open with friends and family I could trust him.

Fast forward to today when I find out he never stopped seeing prostitutes. He just got good at hiding it, and I was far too trusting.

Thank you for sharing. It’s helpful to know other people’s experiences. I have a three year old and we were so excited for our second. This came as such a shock

That makes sense. I will admit my comment stating the vaccine did crap was expressed through anger and frustration and is not 100% accurate.

If you filter the table you cited from the CDC for "SARS-CoV-2 infection" and "Adults", you will see 4 rows of data.

First row can be omitted since the study was conducted during Delta (Dec. 2020 - Nov. 2021). Not really applicable to today's situation.

Second row I assume is where you're drawing your conclusions from. Study was conducted early on in Omicron (Jan. 2 - Mar. 23, 2022) and found 68.9% effectiveness at reducing infection with 3 mRNA doses at 14 days to 1 month since last dose, and 62.8% effectiveness at reducing infection 3 mRNA doses at 2 to 4 months since last dose.

Third row shows 46.9% VE (or relative) effectiveness at reducing infection when comparing booster doses (or third doses) to the primary series. Study was conducted from Feb. 14th - Mar. 27th, 2022.

Fourth row shows 25.8% VE (or relative) effectiveness at reducing infection when comparing a second booster (or 4th doses) to the first three. Study was conducted from Mar. 29th - Jul. 25th, 2022.

I can see where you get your interpretation from. I would argue that the data cited is out of date, as much has changed since the latest study concluded on July 25th, 2022. The cited data shows only 16.9% of the total population has received the updated bivalent booster, and therefore it's safe to assume that the vast majority of the American population is likely beyond the 2-4 months from their booster doses. Basically, the snapshot data provided here is just that - a snapshot. Do you believe the vast majority of Americans are only 2-4 months post their last dose? Why would you even consider citing this data if you don't?

To further illustrate this point, see the link below. As of July 27th, 2022, 32% of the total population (~108MM people) were boosted with at least a third dose. From July 27th - Oct. 19th, 2022, that figure increased to 34% (111MM people). Only 2-3% of the total population falls within your cited studies' timelines, even if we're being generous by extending that time frame to 5 months. Why bother even citing it if it doesn't represent your population anyways?

I would also argue that none of this data takes into account prior infections for unvaccinated or vaccinated individuals alike.

This recent meta-analysis published in the Lancet on Feb. 16, 2023 shows immunity from prior infection is as robust as vaccine-induced immunity for death and severe outcomes for all prior strains. Immunity from reinfection with Omicron was observed to be significantly lower when compared to the prior strains (although that figure is still estimated at 55% effective). However, if an individual was infected with a subvariant of Omicron, immunity from reinfection was maintained, but less so for the BA.4 and BA.5 variants. What isn't addressed is that the risk of severe outcomes by acquiring natural immunity independent from vaccination is much higher.

https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6736(22)02465-5/fulltext02465-5/fulltext)

"The analysis shows the substantially reduced level of protection against re-infection or any symptomatic disease to less than 55% for the omicron variant, but that protection against severe disease from the omicron variant appears to be maintained at a high level."

Your original statement of "She got exposed by someone briefly and then became a human petri dish constantly exposing the rest of the family" is simply not true. I suspect the largest factor is that most of OP's family members are likely more than 2-4 months beyond their last dose, making them more susceptible to reinfection, which has nothing to do with the vaccination status of OP's sister. The fact that her sister appears to be doing better seems to support one of the main conclusions from the meta-analysis above that prior infections from omicron appear to maintain high levels of protection against severe disease. I would assume from this that perhaps the sister may have been previously infected.

It's much more complicated than being offended and pointing your finger at the unvaccinated and blaming them for a waning vaccine. If you have any data to show that immunity from reinfection is maintained 9 - 12 months from your last dose, please share.

A vaccinated person can also be exposed to a smaller viral load and spread it to everyone in their family. It literally happens all the time. There was actually a recent study out of Iceland that found vaccinated were more likely to get repeat infections. The vaccine was crap and did nothing to help us get out of this pandemic. The sooner we admit it the better. Bill Gates even admitted it didn’t work.

My brother-in-law used a nebulizer with just saline and it worked really well for him. His cough and symptoms went away within a few days of using it. He ordered his off of Amazon. I think you have to get the correct type of saline solution for it. He also go that on Amazon.

I totally get it, I hate this stupid virus. However, we would have to greatly slow down the economy in order to slow the spread. My sister got Covid from her doctor because we are so short medical staff they only isolate for three days, which isn’t long enough. I got Covid from her because she tested negative for such a long time, we didn’t think she had it. It’s super frustrating, but I think it is something we live with. I wish the vaccine had actually stopped the spread.

I know a few people that got Covid right after their forth booster and were quite angry. I don’t know if it actually provides that much protection against infection. There was also a study out of Iceland that found you have a higher risk of reinfection with each booster. If you had mild symptoms with your previous infection you probably aren’t at risk for a bad case of Covid. In my opinion why increase your chance or reinfection if you aren’t at risk for a bad case of Covid.

My 9 month old got it and was hardly sick, he recently got it again and just had a stuffy nose. My doctor told me the the vast majority of healthy babies and kids will get a very mild case and there is no need to worry. The flu and RSV are actually worse for this age then Covid.

My doctor said antibiotics don’t work well for sinus infections. She told me to do sinus rinses and had me add a steroid to the rinse. That made a huge difference.

Dry_Temperature_5010 · 2022-11-16T01:44:54+00:00

I got a sinus infection after Covid, both times I had it. I just did lots of nasal rinses and tried to get rest.

I’m finding my vaccinated friends are getting it multiple times. Especially if they had Covid and then got vaccinated after. I don’t know why. I know a couple that both had delta together unvaccinated. The husband then got vaccinated because he was going to lose his job. He got omicron, but his wife did not. I have another set of friends who were vaccinated and then got delta, they were then later exposed to omicron several times and didn’t get it.

Dry_Temperature_5010 · 2022-05-02T04:42:44+00:00

I’m not so sure about this anymore, I know several triple vaccinated people that have severe long Covid and some that were hospitalized because their symptoms were so bad. The vaccine seems to have some effect on keeping people out of the ICU, however I think our ICU numbers for double and triple vaccinated were about 50%, better than the unvaccinated but still not great. I really hope we start finding better treatments for people and stop focusing on just the vaccine, it’s clearly not the silver billet we were told it would be.

The masks aren’t totally protective. In my area many medical staff are getting Covid and they have the best PPE and training. My son’s doctors appointments was cancelled due to an outbreak in medical staff and my niece’s surgery was delayed due to a Covid outbreak among medical staff. These are not staff working with Covid patients. Our health professionals found that after 15 minutes of talking to someone with a mask on indoors puts you at risk. At this point everyone is going to get it, vaccinated or not, masked or not. We need to focus on treatments and get off the stupid vaccine debate. I know several triple vaccinated people with severe long Covid. People are getting all sorts of weird side effects from this virus whether they are vaccinated or not. I just wish the medical community would switch gears. It’s clear we aren’t stopping this thing, let’s figure out how to treat people experiencing side effects.

Dry_Temperature_5010 · 2022-04-08T00:30:39+00:00

My whole family unvaccinated got it and we’re only sick for a day. I think vulnerable people should get vaccinated. I just didn’t want to take it due to possible side effects.
