Vaxxed. 75. Moved back to Sacramento heat. Postponed medical for a few years, dental for a few more. Told him about D-Dimmer test for blood clots. Had swollen feet. Told him vax. Sent him this from Dr. Alexander: Open in app
Of excess-mortality & vaccine: dramatic rise in US excess death shortly after booster rollout early 2022; alarming U.S. Insurance Report Shows Double Excess Mortality in 35-44 Age Group in Q3 2021
In 2020, after the pandemic struck, before vaccines came, a surge in COVID-19 related excess mortality seen & 25% of all excess mortality is not COVID; points to deaths from lockdown & school closure
And his response-
Damn Nonsense…meant literally! At 75 yrs in the higher risk group.
Not sure what the “Double Excess” indicates? So 75% “is” covid-19.
Was non-plused by second booster, perhaps a bit more fatigued, bounced back second day.
Still experiencing prolonged fatigue and lingering non-sense taste in tongue. Have scar tissue where I picked off scab on tongue.
I’ll take the risk of the vaccine over the actual covid-19 that I had full blown in Jan 2021, only didn’t know it at the time.
Experience minor fatigue, most likely from extended self isolation last year.
Felt safe enough to venture out after keeping up with vaccine up grades.
Was so fatigued in January and had intermittent difficulty breathing that surrendered to Self, and said I was okay if he called me back.
Surprised to find myself fully recovered the next morning, at least I felt that way.
But still experienced lingering sense of cognitive dysfunction and fatigue and a lingering loss of the sharpness of taste…for example…would find myself question it that was a sour taste, was it yellow flavored like a lemon…etc…ge.
I agree. I rarely bring it up. I have so few friends. In trying to save their health I trigger a strong reaction. I have really thought this through. I am nearly convinced that social pressure is stronger than self preservation. Agamben writes "if people have accepted the despotic measures and unprecedented constraints they have been subjected to without any guarantee, it is not only out of fear of the pandemic, but presumably because, more or less unconsciously, they knew that the world in which they had lived until then. it could not continue, it was too unfair and inhuman. It goes without saying that governments are preparing an even more inhuman, even more unjust world; but in any case, on both sides, it was somehow foreshadowed that the former world - as it is now beginning to be called - could not continue. There is certainly in this, as in every dark presentiment, a religious element. Health has replaced salvation, biological life has taken the place of eternal life and the Church, which has long been accustomed to compromising itself with worldly needs, has more or less explicitly consented to this replacement."
