        directly in my life
        nope...
        but I think its going to be like tb
        case in point... my exwife test positive for tb on every test... why... she has the antibodies...
        no tb but the antibodies caused by the vaccine that she took long ago...

        hence why I don't want to take a covid 19 test... I may not have it but I may have the antibodies and with the hysteria out there now and the crap they call testing... thats as good as having it...

          I had COVID in the first wave in Europe (April). I am a healthy boy with no problems.
          During my infectious period, I was in intensive care and I nearly died. I have been intubated for a week. At the end of the month I recovered and in May I was already at work.

            Bix, I'm glad you pulled through OK. Last month I stopped by one of my accounts for machine inspections and they were under quarantine. Half their staff became infected. I talked to one of the gals today, and she said the weirdest part for her was the smell/taste issues. She could not even smell Vicks vapo rub, and she said her tongue tasted burnt all the time, even with constant teeth brushing. She is OK now, but I noticed there were a couple people that had been replaced. Lets not shit anybody, this stuff sucks.

              I dont know what i currently have. But it's very stubborn.... Typical cold I can get over in 4 hrs. Drink lots of water and sweat it out.

              This thing has some gimmicks I haven't encounter before....

              1. I have never consciously want to drink so much water until now
              2. Irregular temperature regulation at times(chills).
              3. Fatigue, tho slightly, food intake fixes it
              4. My sinus acting as if I have allergic reaction at times

              This is the second week... It doesn't want to go away... All the tricks in the book is used...

              Very strange...

              Or this is what close to 40 feels like


              Or. Diabetes lawl... Oh boy

                My 79 year old dad caught it last week, not sure how. He's extremely weak.

                Too weak to stand or speak. Eating only when my step-mom forces him. No other symptoms. They sent him away from the hospital with a diagnosis, and nothing else. He's survived a week, and I think he will survive if step-mom can adequately care for him.

                He's a stubborn bastard, and this won't be the thing that takes him. =^..^=
                If you'd like a serious answer to your request:
                1) demonstrate that you've read the manual
                2) demonstrate that you made some attempt to fix it.
                3) if you're going to ask about jams include the jam code.
                4) if you're going to ask about an error code include the error code.
                5) You are the person onsite. Only you can make observations.

                  I hope your dad has a speedy recovery, blackcat.

                    The illness has made it here... People are getting headaches followed by nasal drip, smell and taste goes followed by a dry couch and general exhaustion. Lasts about 10 days. Sounds like the flu. Weird thing is one one or two members of the households will get sick, others shows no symptoms. Testing is super inconsistent. Government issued tests will test positive and doing the test the same day at a private lab will show negative.

                    Cyril Ramaphosa the president of South-Africa has been in meetings with Bill Gates and the CDC.. New strains are popping up here.
                    So South-Africa has now become a testing ground for the NWO toys. In this year they plan to start taking DNA profiles for proof of birth ID and also possibly an ID chip. All the regitration plates on the vehicles will also get RF chips to allow access thru new boom gates. Then there is new national healthy insurance that will destroy private medical practice and medical insurance. You health care will be exclusively be thru the government.

                    No more freedom.

                          Is it true they have banned alcohol sales in S.A, claiming those that bought it over Christmas were behaving irresponsibly?

                            Previous lock down even tobacco got banned. Certain ANC politicians have fingers in the tobacco industry. There was no short supply of over priced illegal cigarettes form the same producers they are invested in. ANC members got caught red handed warehousing these illegal brands, no legal action followed. Most corrupt state in the world by my reckoning.

                            Yea can not buy any alcohol legally at this time. New years was fueled by illegal sales while the police force were pay off to look the other way. South-Africa being one of the youngest "democracies" the people fail to trust any other political party no matter how corrupt the current ANC government has proven to be. What ever the government announces the people follow blindly. The ideal place to implement the devises they have planed. ZA is in so much dept and will follow the route that promises to bring relief even if it means selling out the people to the CDC IMF and that ass called Bill Gates.

                              I have known several people with it although I've managed to stay clean so far. The difference in symptoms is absolutely crazy. My dad's whole household caught it and it ranged from him who had to be hospitalized and was absolutely wrecked by it for 12 days. All the way down to my brother who barely had a cough and we probably wouldn't have thought anything of it if they weren't already getting tests anyways. I suppose that's why numbers are so all over the place, really easy to transmit if you are on the lower end of the symptom spectrum.

                              In response to Allan about tests coming back negative, the rapid responce ones are definitely showing false negatives more often. Here at work they're having us take both after exposure, if the rapid comes back positive you go home if it comes back negative you get the in office quarantine treatment until the other test comes back. Luckily for us it isn't incredibly difficult to do most of our work from home so we've been able to self quarantine when necessary without always missing out on hours and stuff.

                                My best friend, and both her children had it over Christmas, my friend is vulnerable, and struggled to breathe at times, but, luckily, didn't need to be hospitalised.

                                An old school was in hospital on a ventilator for several weeks in the middle of last year, and nearly lost her life.

                                A good friend of my son nearly lost his life early last year.

                                And my sister lost a friend this week.

                                My dad has severe dementia, and is now in a secure dementia ward in hospital, they discovered Covid on his ward this week, so everyone has to isolate and not leave their rooms, if my dad becomes infected there's a good chance I'll never see him again.

                                This is very real, that's why I take every precaution I possibly can, and stay home as much as possible
