My wife and I attended an engagement party last weekend. Unbeknownst to me, half the guests were not vaccinatedDid any of those unvaccinated guests send you a get well card? :=) Do you expect to attend the funeral for one of those unvaccinated guests? :=) BTW, did you report their identities to the Covid tracers. That's your contribution to preventing Covid's spread. N.B. They still could have infected you had they been vaccinated. That's one of the Delta variant's achievements. As I’ve been vaxxed since March, I thought I was good to go without a mask. Unfortunately, masks will be with us until Covid is eradicated. Each time we are on target to achieve this, we decide to abandon that goal to "save the economy." |

No, and I doubt they will. They won’t be seeing me for a long time to come, that is for damn sure. Somehow none of them have contracted the virus. I had a long conversation yesterday with the contact tracers. They didn’t ask me where I think I got the virus. Would I have ratted them out? In a second, baby. Nobody jeopardizes my health and gets away with it. |

I had a long conversation yesterday with the contact tracers. They didn’t ask me where I think I got the virus. Would I have ratted them out? In a second, baby.Contact tracing isn't very thorough in this country. They should have asked you all your contacts from the time you were infections (a few days before you took the test) until the present. Testing all these contacts would reduce the spread and would also establish how you contracted Covid. You have a supposition where you got Covid. It's not certain until a full genome tests are completed. It would isolate it down to the person, if there were a match. It would isolate it down to a group, if there were a partial match. Nobody jeopardizes my health and gets away with it. You jeopardized your health. You continued to place 100% faith in vaccines despite ample evidence of breakthrough cases. You have used a mask only when you thought you might be in jeopardy. A cautious person would have always used a mask outside his family bubble. Unfortunately, you did not get away with it. |

I made how many dozens of posts about masks and ignoring the CDC??? And no one listens.You're not taking vitamin D either are you? Get yourself a good dosage now. Do you have an oximeter? I think they're easier to come by now than last year. Supposedly those smart watches will do it. My phone is supposed to too. They're not the most accurate, but at least if you're on an extreme it should tell you. I've also heard that if you're up the river and on your own and ever have trouble breathing, laying on your stomach is supposed to help with oxygen. |

I don't want to make recommendations, but 5000 looks like a popular dosage of Vitamin D that the internets tells me is the max. But that's for daily use. I don't know if maybe you're supposed to go higher or not.I think the doctors will take a count and pump it in you. |

And no one listens.I listen to your advice, to the CDC's, and to others'. Then I make up my mind what to do. I have worn a mask any time I have been in the same indoor space with any people other than my wife for every single minute (except when getting my teeth cleaned) since 3/16/2020. |

From WebMD:One study found that people with low levels of vitamin D had a 7.2% chance of testing positive for COVID-19. Another found that high levels of vitamin D might lower your risk for severe COVID-19 infection, especially if you’re a Black person. The study included over 3,000 people whose vitamin D levels were tested within 14 days before they got a COVID-19 test. Black people who had just enough vitamin D in their blood -- just over the normal limits -- were two times more likely to test positive than those who had even higher vitamin D levels. But another report suggests higher levels of vitamin D don’t lower risk of viral infection, hospitalization, or severity of COVID-19. Researchers looked at more than 1 million people of European ancestry from 11 countries. They also included people with a gene mutation that allows them to have naturally high levels of vitamin D. And a third study found that giving vitamin D to hospitalized patients with moderate to severe COVID-19 didn’t help their condition or reduce their hospital stay. In other words, ask your doctor what you should do and don't listen to OBS. |

They're only mandating it in several countries and using it in hospitals via IV."nd don't listen to OBS." If you want to get covid, do this. If you want to listen to one cut and paste from someone who did 8 seconds of research that's been researched to death, look for Dave. He's been right about.....well nothing ever. |

Covid aside, low Vitamin D levels are a risk factor for a myriad of conditions. Since we are usually clothed outside, and often use sunscreens, the natural process for the body to produce vitamin d is often diminished. Having levels checked as part of the labs in an annual physical is not a big deal, and supplementation is neither difficult or expensive. Your doctor can make a recommendation for what is appropriate for you, there is a general consensus that many of us are low, but just how much supplementation and to achieve what levels are a bit fuzzier. |

Sorry, Dave says you're a moron for saying such."there is a general consensus that many of us are low," I understand more than half of the country tests low. It would be interesting to find a state by state breakdown. It really helped explain why different states, and even countries had vastly different covid outcomes before delta. |

Posted by Orange Blossom Special on Wed Aug 18 13:11:46 2021, in response to I TESTED POSITIVE FOR DELTA VARIANT, posted by Mitch45 on Wed Aug 18 04:20:56 2021. fwiw, I haven't heard anything about so-called risk factors and vaccinated people. Maybe there is an obscure study on this. But with Vaccinated people only accounting for 9 or 10% of hospitalizations thus far, and that the 40 to 44% of patients who are hospitalized with breakthrough infections have a compromised immune system, you probably look good. What's this been going on for, like a week now?The US is going to suggest a 3rd booster shot, since Americans get the 2nd shot early and for you it's been six months since you've been vaxxed, which Israel and the US claim is the point that the efficiency wanes. I'm sure Dave will cut and paste a sentence that google gave him to refute the CDC, but whatever. Subchat be subchat. You start expecting that. |

No, I said, "In other words, ask your doctor what you should do"If your doctor says take it, then take it. If your doctor says you don't need to take it, then don't. Not listening to you is still good advice. |
