Default Let's Talk: Am I Gonna Die?

OK, so as a prelude, I have not been injected with any of the Wu flu junk. I also haven't been sick at all during the last year and a half, probably longer....until now.

More prelude:

Guy who works for me got his second injection of the Wu flu not-a-vaccine a little over a week ago, then came down with flu like symptoms for about a week....runny nose, coughing, fatigue, sinus pressure. I feel sure it was injection related sickness.

Now, last Friday, I rode with that guy for a couple of hours in total, checking out a couple of jobs. Until then, I had insisted on he and I driving separately, but it didn't really make sense to do that on Friday, because of the distance we needed to travel.

Sunday morning, I noticed sinuses draining down the back of my throat, and by Sunday evening, I was full on with symptoms. Sinuses draining everywhere, sinus pressure/pain, fatigue, sneezing, eyes watering...generally feeling like shit. Monday and Tuesday were kind of a blur, I slept on and off most of the day while drugging up with flu and allergy medicine/zinc lozenges/Vitamin C, and whatever else I had handy.

Today, I have minor congestion, a little residual fatigue, and sinus pressure that is decently controlled by ibuprofen. I think I'll be fine by tomorrow at this rate of improvement.

So here's the questions....I'm assuming my friend was shedding spike proteins from his injection, and that's what made me sick. Should I expect long term deleterious effects from this, as I might from actually getting the vaccine? And assuming I did react to shedding spike proteins from my friend's injection, will this episode protect me from getting the actual Wu flu?

Go.

Go.
Get tested for the virus & the antibodies and we will be able to better assess. Common colds are still out there.

There are alleged cases of the actual vaccine shedding. In that you can be unintentionally vaccinated by exposure to someone that recently was vaccinated.

Yes, you're going to die, but not for the reason you suspect. We are all eventually going to die.

I'll repeat what a good friend used to tell me...

"I have more days behind me than I do ahead of me".

Edit: Just in case, go ahead and start selling stuff really cheap.

The thing is, I don't want any info like that on my permanent record. I wonder if I can just pay cash somewhere and get tested under an assumed name?

I'm also going to try and stay away from people for the next few days or so. Heck, I'll probably dig out a mask from under the seat of the truck if I have to go in a business for any reason, in the next few days. Masks are for sick people, I'm sick, OK I'll wear one.

Bill, I can get you tested that way. It is a drive since I'm in Sugar Land. I think that we were charging fiddy bucks before, but let me see if that changed.

If you have to fly, use UNITED. The Delta variant seems to be a problem.

Well crap. I guess that testing program has stopped. We did it when we were in our research phase. Sorry.
