We had it from 23rd (Shonee) and 25th April 2022.

I've still got a dry cough triggered by cold air and cold drinks.

I hope you and Robyn both recover well.

Booked for our 4th vaccine in a couple of weeks. I found out today it has to be 3 months after you catch Covid before you can get another booster.

WendyL and I both got it about 3-4 weeks back, me down hill for 2 days, Wendy bad for a week then bronchial infection on top for another week and still fatigued easily. All this only 2 weeks post shoulder surgery and all courtesy of a F.I.F.O. worker she had 10mins of contact with.
Out here its the first Grey Nomad/Tourist season without restrictions & mask mandates and is running rampant all the way from Barcaldine up to the Gulf, Mount Isa to Hughenden.
We were both about to get our 4th jabs but now have to wait till September.
One day you will wake up and there won't be anymore time to do the things you've always wanted so do them NOW!!!
Remember there are 7 days in a week and Someday isn't one of them!

Theresa had her 2nd booster but still got a mild case and passed it on to me. I was still thinking about what I wanted for my 2nd booster.
 Found this article rebooster timing after having had Covid. Very interesting if yu read to the bottom.

Today is Day 8 after testing positive.
I have a sore and swollen throat remaining but apart from that I'm doing well :thumbsup

As for the vaccine, I had the first two Phizer shots but no boosters.

Still dodging it, despite most of my work colleagues having had it. Work from home has probably been a big factor, plus wearing a mask in higher risk situations.

I've had 2 AZ, 1 Pfizer & 1 Moderna, plus the annual fluvax.

Sandra's still dodged it, despite working in hospitality & tourism and most of her colleagues have had it. She's had her 2 initial shots & 1 booster.

Ummm, you don't need to retest as you will be positive up to 21-28days but not infectious past about day 4. You're only required to isolate for 7 days or until sympton free. So no point retesting yourself
One day you will wake up and there won't be anymore time to do the things you've always wanted so do them NOW!!!
Remember there are 7 days in a week and Someday isn't one of them!

Chris and I have avoided it. We had two Astra and two Pfizer boosters and the flu shot. Half our family and a few friends have had it now.

I seem to have picked up a bug last weekend...  :fp
Thankfully it's just the sniffles and the odd sneeze at this stage so here's hoping I get over it by Monday otherwise my surgery will probably be cancelled!
I had to get some blood tests this morning (in preparation) so did a RAT (which thankfully was negative) before heading out...  :thumbs
I have to do another before I get admitted to hospital...  :X

I've had 2 AZ and 2 Pfizer, the last being around the 12th of May. I picked up Covid when doing the Great Southern Adventure Rally with a mate (https://www.greatsouthernadventurerally.com.au/) about 8 or so days later, probably at the Wirrabara pub. Back home I had a bit of a scratchy throat on the Tuesday - negative RAT; Wednesday a bit of sinus blockage so a second RAT and a very weak positive. Down for the PCR (and doesn't that make your eyes water) and positive. It felt like an average head cold, no lung involvement and over it in a week but easily fatigued for the next couple of weeks. I generously passed the bug onto Julie. It hit her a bit harder but she'd only had 3 doses of vaccine.
I've gone back to work to help with the Varroa response and people are going positive every three or four days despite mask wearing and hand sanitisation. The new variants must be pretty contagious. I'm currently reassessing whether I'll continue to head in every day.

The Boss and I have had two Pfizer and one Moderna so far, and have managed to avoid the bug so far (touches wood frantically so as not to jinx self), although one son has had it, and the other had the grandson bring it home from school, but he and his other half managed to avoid getting it, thanks to hiding in their rooms and lots of baby wipes and Glen20

Fully Vaxed, and very cautious, usually wearing a mask whenever I go out, and tending to avoid large groups.    So far, we've avoided catching Covid.    I must admit that Mannum NatRally has me a little concerned as a potential "spreader" event.

Wife and I are fully vaxed and double boosted. We just returned from a 3 month trip to UK and had no problems with Covid UNTIL on the flight home, the young guy next to me started coughing and sneezing half way through the trip.
I now have Covid.

BTW: We had to wear masks on the plane and in the terminal, which 'most' people did. No one in the UK wore masks or took any other precautions.

I suggest attendees bring RAT kits and test two days before, and again on arrival.

I'm fully vaxxed AZ and double boosted Moderna.

Wife recently had mild Covid for around a week. Sort of like a bad cold.

I took no special precautions but did not succumb! I'm hoping I'm one of the population that will not be getting Covid.
